5 Things to do before your labour. Don’t forget!

Having all of the necessary essentials ready in a bag packed either by your front door or as close to it as possible will save your spouse time in coming to your aid.

Pregnancy photo shoot of Anna

I photographed wedding of Anna and Sergey last year, and this summer we met again but for different reason – they’ve decided to capture and memorise the last weeks of Anna’s pregnancy. Most of the Anna’s pictures we took at home and then photographed her with Sergey outside. The weather was lovely and we had very good time.

Guys, it was nice to see you again – here are some photographs from the photo shoot.

Keep in touch!
