This is Kathy and Javier. Kathy is a friend of mine that was almost at her full term with baby Xavier. I asked if I could practice taking maternity shots on her because I have never done them before. So we set out for an ocean side seen. I was shooting later in the day trying to capture the golden sunlight. Each session I shoot I try and make them personal to the subjects, so that when they look at their images they don't see what that theirs are similar or just like other people. I try to build a relationship with them. In this case the relationship was built already at work and through a previous shoot of Kathy and her dog Chapo. So when I gave direction is was followed easily and was comfortable for the subject she already kinda knew the routine.
