Winter Park Maternity Session to welcome baby Ari
It was an early morning for this Winter Park maternity session! Maxine and Jared hold such a special place in my heart – and I was so excited to hear they’d be welcoming a baby boy in September! After photographing their engagement session at Rollins College, and then their wedding at The Alfond Inn, we decided to head back to both locations to document the next big journey they’re on together!
I can safely say that while pregnancy hasn’t been Maxine’s favorite thing, she is over the moon excited to meet her baby boy! They willingly braved the summer heat for this shoot – and promised that next time they’d have a winter maternity session!
Thankfully, we shot first thing in the morning and then they enjoyed a little babymoon at Alfond Inn! (Fun fact, when you get married there, they gift you a night’s stay to use your first year of marriage – the perfect little getaway!) I watched their instagram stories where they enjoyed a cozy nap in their room after our session, followed by mocktails at the pool and dinner on Park Ave.
I can’t wait to meet baby Ari next month and wish Maxine a safe delivery! These 2 will be the most amazing parents and I know they’re already planning his first fishing trip!
And I had to include some of my favorite outtakes – Maxine has the best energy, even when it’s 100 degrees and she’s 8 month pregnant lol!
