Lifestyle Portraits

The (New and Improved) Calitz Family

Little Josh is a dream-come-true for Megan.  She’s been talking about having children from the day we met her, which was just before her Wedding, and her joy shone through beautifully during her Maternity Shoot.  She looks so content and comfortable with Josh, like she’s been doing motherhood for years.  John is often away for his work so he only got to meet his son about a week before this shoot.  It was very… Continue reading
