Hardin Maternity Photoshoot | Cedar Park, Texas

The Hardin family is growing by two more little feet!

This family is so very sweet. Getting to meet them for the first time was such a pleasure. The weather unfortunately made us postpone their first session date. As sad as it was to push it a few days, I am glad we did because they got a beautiful sunset for their session!

Ariel is a superhero without a cape. Not only is it easy to see what an amazing mum to Penelope she is, but she is also in the medical field. I think with everything going on right now, being pregnant and on the frontlines is something scary. Ariel is amazing to be working so hard while pregnant and all! I truly wanted to take a moment to thank her again for all she and her coworkers do for our city!

I couldn’t be more excited for Penelope. She is going to be such a good big sister. Working with her was truly a joy. She is the most bubbly, silly, happy little girl you could ever hope for. She has so much love to give, and is the best at making everyone around her laugh and smile. With the love she is surrounded by, it isn’t surprising to see.

Picking the photos from this session to include in this blog post was actually really difficult. There are so many good shots that we captured it was hard to only choose a few.

I love when little ones are included in maternity sessions. I think it’s precious to have them included in this new milestone as they’re becoming a big sibling to a new family member. It is such an exciting and precious time in a family’s life.

Ariel is a natural in front of the camera. She looked so stunning and I absolutely loved her dress. Every photo she looks stunning in; which didn’t help the choosing process for this post. The chemistry between her and Thomas is unmistakable. They were beyond adorable together. The love Thomas has for both Ariel and Penelope is extremely precious. All of that amazing chemistry in one family made for these magical photos!

Hardin family, thank you so much for asking me to be a part of this beautiful and exciting milestone for your family. You are truly all so beautiful inside and out. Thomas and Ariel, you two are going to make such great parents of two! With the love you have for one another, and your flawless teamwork with Penelope already, there is no doubt in my mind. This little one is already so very loved and lucky to have you both as parents. I truly loved getting to meet Penelope and having her be a part of the session. I know she really will make such a good big sister. I can’t wait to see you all again as a full family of four! :)
