Rika [and family] Maternity Session! Rio Rancho, New Mexico
“Out of difficulties grow miracles.” – Jean De La Bruyere
If you know me, you probably know I’m a middle child [shout out to all the other middle children of the world!!!] My sister and brother have appeared on the blog here and there [like the last time these guys were on the blog, was for a family session a few years back; I also featured my brothers wedding (which was more like an elopement really), a few years before back as well].
This feature though, is all about that sweet bump of my sisters! She’s growing a baby due in the middle of August, and we all are so excited and happy for her! They don’t know if it’s a baby girl or a baby boy yet [eeekkk!! Yay for surprises!!!], but Joshua is hoping for a baby brother [if this happens, it will continue the trend of my parents only being grandparents to boys ;)].
I’m so glad we were able to squeeze so many fun things into our trip out to New Mexico a couple weeks ago [yay for cousin weddings, and being able to host a baby shower for my sister while all the family was in town!]
Rika and Rusty, I’m so excited for that little baby coming soon. Joshua, I know that baby will be loved either way, but I’m hoping against you and have my fingers crossed for a baby girl.
Love you all!

PS: Are you in New Mexico and love my work? I love shooting in other cities, so shoot me an e-mail if you want me to get in touch next time I’m in town and have some availability!
