m+p.

melissa and paul are anticipating the arrival of their first child, and boy do they make expectation look beautiful.

the evening we photographed outdoors was so thick with humidity we felt near-drowning with each breath, but melissa was as flawless as ever. she is such a gorgeous mama.















i wish y'all could know these people. they are playful and generous and have this pronounced sense of humor that i adore.

they will be amazing parents.

thanks, melissa and paul, for the opportunity to photograph this time of expectancy. i can't wait to meet your little girl.
