Julian’s Maternity
If you were to walk in to my living room you would immediately think of Ikea. I love modern design; clean lines, bright colors, minimal decor. I recognize that this style is not everyone’s favorite. I know that it can be perceived as cold or too sharp, not “homey”. However to me it says, “fresh”. Like a basket of bright red strawberries kissed with drops of water. Or a cool pool on a hot summer day.
When I met up with Julian I was so excited to hear that she too is a lover of Ikea. I was overjoyed that we could do a photo shoot in one of my favorite places in La Jolla (The Salk Institute) to capture some fresh, clean and modern pregnancy photos. To say the least, I love her photos. I am thinking of putting them up in my living room. 
What a beauty!! Love ‘em! #5 looks like she is really holding a little newborn…so nurturing.

I feel a bit speechless. With each pictures I thought “oh this is my favorite” until I saw the next one. Ben and Juli must be SO happy! Great work G, I am so proud of you and your talent!

Thanks for the compliments! I had a great time doing these pics and letting my love for modern art come out…BUT the compliments definitely should go to Julian…I forgot to mention that in the shots with the black dress on, she was sitting in a freezing cold puddle of rain water! Sacrafice your dry bottom (to get a cold wet one) for art’s sake = awesome photos.
