beautiful belly

I have quite a few pregnancy shots to post so I'll let them trickle out little by little. This is actually the first maternity session I've ever done, and it's something I've been looking forward to for a long time. I have become more and more enthralled and awed by pregnancy over the past few years. Perhaps it's my own biological clock becoming more attracted to the idea, but I happen to think it's more than that. I am beginning to think it's more of a calling, and am currently meditating on the idea of becoming a doula. After taking these pictures of the lovely Nicole, I felt more drawn to the idea because of how inspired I felt by the experience and because Nicole shared with me that my nurturing energy made her feel so comfortable and beautiful. I was honored by that comment. I also realized that I could combine all my loves by becoming an Ayurvedic doula (so I would be practicing natural healing and providing support during pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum), I would offer maternity photos, newborn photos.....and eventually I would like to publish a book about the experience.

Stay tuned.....I should be making a decision soon!
