I recently met this wonderful couple for their maternity session. When we got to our location it was POURING rain. Half of the sky was dark and raining and the other half was gorgeous and shining sun. We sat around and waited a few minutes for the skies to clear. And they did! This time of year the weather is so bipolar. One minute there will be sun, the next downpour. For this reason I don’t like to call a session for rain till a few hours before. I would hate to waste gorgeous sun just because it was raining that morning!

We had a great session together. They are so excited to meet their sweet baby. I can’t wait as well :) I am so in love with their maternity session.

Enjoy some favorites!

I can’t wait for our newborn session in the near future. Snuggles will be had!

Eat For Two

Oh, baby blankets and baby shoes
Baby slippers, baby spoons, walls of baby blue
Dream child in my head is a nightmare born in a borrowed bed
Now I know lightning strikes again
It struck me once, then struck me dead
My folly grows inside of me

I eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now
Walk for two, eat for two, breathe for two now

Well, the egg man fell down off his shelf
All the good King’s men with all their help
Struggled ’til the end for a shell they couldn’t mend
You know where this will lead
To hush and rock in the nursery
For the kicking one inside of me

I eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now
Eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now

When the boy was a boy, the girl was a girl
They found each other in a wicked world
Strong in some respects
But she couldn’t stand for the way he begged and gave in
Pride is for men, young girls should run and hide instead
Risk the game by taking dares with “yes”

Eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now
Eat for two, walk for two, breathe for two now

Walk for two? I’m stumbling
Walk for two? I’m stumbling
Breathe for two, how? I can’t breathe
I can’t breathe
Five months, how it grows
Five months now, I begin to show


If thinking about a session with me, please email me at jessicaweinstockphotography@gmail.com or use the contact button on top :) I am happy to answer any questions you may have. It is best to book your session with me about 4-6 weeks in advance (sooner if newborn session) as I can’t guarantee space. Especially in Spring/Summer and Fall*
