Our journey to parenthood began last year when we became pregnant with our first child.  Sadly, that pregnancy ended in miscarriage early on, and after one more early loss, we sought help from a talented OBGYN team in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.  Lindsay has a version of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, and while she has little trouble getting pregnant, her uneven levels of hormones made it difficult to maintain a pregnancy without help.  A little over a year later, we are currently pregnant with our rainbow baby, a sweet girl who we are absolutely over-the-moon in love with!  We can truly say “For this child, we have prayed,” and we are so grateful to have made it to the 26 week mark in our pregnancy!

The past few months have been spent planning the perfect nursery, raiding all of the crazy closing sales at Babies-R-Us, and enjoying every single one of her little kicks.  As huge Disney fans, we chose to make our nursery a blend of Magic Kingdom and Minnie Mouse.  After all, in the words of Walt himself, “It was all started by a mouse.”  From a custom-made Minnie Mouse shelving unit above her dresser to a wall-to-ceiling mural of Cinderella’s Castle, we hope our baby’s nursery conveys all the magic of Disney and the innocence of childhood.  The color scheme is pink, gold, and white!

I found Jill on instagram and instantly fell in love with her work!  As a photographer myself, I put a lot of careful thought into picking my maternity photographer.  Jill’s light, airy, and whimsical style really captured the look we were hoping for, and thankfully she had an opening during our vacation week in New Jersey!  When I read about her love of flower crowns, I knew she was going to be an even better fit than I had hoped for!  My husband, who really isn’t crazy about posing for pictures, even commented at the end of our session how much more comfortable he felt this time around having our portraits taken.  We are in LOVE with the images we have seen so far, and couldn’t be more thrilled to have had Jill capture this important time in our lives! NJ MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER
