Megan, Ciara, and Tyler – Maternity Portraits

On June 30, 2007 I photographed Megan and Ciara at their wedding at the Unitarian Church in Arlington. It was one of the first same-sex weddings I’d photographed and to this day, it’s high on my list of all-time favorites. When I started emailing Megan recently about some same-sex wedding resources, she told me that she was pregnant – I nearly jumped for joy. They were so great to work with before, I knew I wanted to photograph their maternity portraits! Megan, Ciara, and their son Tyler all came over for a totally rad portrait session at our house.

We started out with some beautiful family portraits:

Then it was time for Tyler and Megan to have some fun with poses on their own:

Ciara and Megan were just as easy and beautiful to work with as when I photographed their wedding a year ago:

Check out these hands (and check out the wide-open aperture!)

These next three are my favorites. I LOVE the silhouette of Megan’s pregnant belly, which was a totally impromptu and creative idea, the old-school look of the hands, and their gorgeousness in this portrait.

All hands on deck! Wanna bet Alexis was holding theirs, just as they were holding her?
