Baby A | Retzer Nature Center Maternity Photography

I first met Avani & Zach at a wedding last year and they were clearly happy and in love and well, adorable. But fast forward to this year and their new role as parents-to-be and I am near swooning with sweetness just looking at them. Together they exude hope and joy, Zach clearly excited to be a father and thrilled that he gets to share that experience with his gorgeous wife who wears pregnancy admirably well. With just 5 weeks to go in these photos, Avani struck me as radiant. And yes, pregnancy glow and all that, but it was and is more. Avani brightens up when she touches her belly, when she chats with Zach about this name or that name. And so it seemed incredibly perfect to capture her and her babe-in-the-womb at sunset, a literal glow matching her metaphorical one. I can’t wait to meet baby A and learn which name wins out, to see them embrace not only parenthood, but each other, a new babe and new life itself.
