Reatha's Goddess (Maternity) Session / by Lacey R Butler

As far as Goddess go, I thought Reatha was not only stunningly beautiful, she was enduringly sweet.

We walked through Umstead and she never really disagreed with any ideas.. but she did talk very passionately about her dislike of insects.  I must mention here, I in no way coerced her into entering the forest with me!   No, turns out it is one of her favorite places. The initial caveat to choosing a location was that it spoke about North Carolina. I was all, you mean, like, BBQ's and urban sprawl? But she was like, no, dear, the landscape...

Something like that.

 

Cannot wait to meet little J! <3 Thanks for choosing to work with me, Reatha! Great to meet you.

I'm so happy I got to work with her, that we created these images that showcase just how beautiful pregnancy is, and, I hope, they speak to the charming character and beauty I saw in her.
