Yesterday Lauren & her family & I braved the scorching 90 degree weather and spent a few hours at Bok Gardens in Lake Wales Florida. I was a bit embarrassed to say that after living in Florida for 23 years I had never been. But from the minute I stepped on the property I knew that Lauren had chosen the most perfect spot to hold her Maternity Session. It felt fresh shooting somewhere new and if it wasn’t so hot I probably would have kept Lauren there longer – all of her carefully chosen outfit’s blended perfectly with each area of the Garden’s we picked to shoot in. Lauren you & Jarrod will be 2 amazing parents – and your little one will be surrounded by loving families from both sides. Thank you for allowing me to capture this special time in your life – and I can’t wait to meet little Raena James!!
