It's not every day that you get to photograph a couple who are arguably the best and most humble people you've ever met. Dan reached out to me and noticed that I didn't have any maternity photos on the site. He wasn't wrong. I've never photographed any maternity photos and never really jumped at the chance to call myself such a photographer. He asked if I was interested in photographing his wife for a maternity session. Of course, I jumped at the chance to be able to do that. It would be nice to branch out and photograph something other than sports and senior photos for once. I gleefully agreed and decided that we would do an early morning shoot at a local lake here in Dallas. We chose the early morning because.... well, it's July in Texas. We weren't trying to have a heat stroke for some photos.
Dan and Amy certainly had some words of wisdom for a young photographer with high career aspirations. This shoot turned into a wisdom-session and it's a conversation that I will never forget for as long as I live. One of the main reasons why I love being a photographer is because I get to learn so much about the people that I photograph and vice versa.
Thanks, Dan and Amy for trusting me to take photos of such an amazing time in your lives!
