Queena e-mailed me about a maternity session last year. She let me know I took engagement photos for her co-worker, Andrea, and it is always awesome to meet new families through my past couples. I always get excited about photographing growing families, and this was no exception. Queena and Tyler are both doctors here in Sacramento. We chatted about their maternity leave, world travels, their plans for their new baby. It never surprises me how humans can connect on so many levels, even when we first meet. I can say, with truth, I really enjoy meeting and getting to know people. I feel happiness and anticipation for them to meet their new baby.

The way Tyler and Queena get along is so very sweet. Their relationship is natural and kind and we had a blast wandering the gardens near Land Park. We lucked out with some really pretty sunlight and warm weather, even though it was late fall. Tyler is from back east, and they sported some jerseys to show their new baby boy how much he has to love the family team.

We met in Land Park for their session. Sacramento offers such beautiful spots for photographs, and shooting maternity photos here was perfect. The gardens have the best little spots to tuck couples away and get some lovely, intimate images. The moments were strong here, mainly because these two really love each other and are truly excited for their baby. I know the feeling of waiting not-so patiently for a baby to arrive. I know you’ll be awesome parents. Congrats to you two!!
