Special Delivery – June 2, 2012

When Laura was pregnant she thought it would be a good idea for her and AJ to take the infant photos themselves.  AJ has always been really good with photography and Laura figured out some cute settings.  One idea came to her when she received a big box of baby supplies from her mom packed in pink packing peanuts.  Laura told AJ that they could take a picture of Brooke in the box as a “Special Delivery”.  Then she found a perfect personalized onesie to match the concept.  The pictures speak for themselves…

Laura’s Metamorphosis

Throughout Laura’s pregnancy, starting from the day we found out she was pregnant, we took a photo every single day in the hopes of compiling them into a video to chronicle this special time in our lives.  What you see below is just that.  We get to watch Laura and her journey over the 40 weeks of her pregnancy and see some of the sights and places she went to.
