Kate + Ben: Expecting

 

There are strange moments in life that make you feel like an adult.  I remember when I left for college and had to get a bank account in Boston.  I felt so official.  Or when I moved into my first apartment and realized just how often you had to vacuum.  Nothing says adulthood like responsibility.  Every time I say the word husband it still gets me for a second because it just sounds so…grown up.  But nothing compares to watching your friends have babies (and realizing it may not be that long before you have a few of your own).  It’s such a surreal feeling to watch someone create a human…and it’s even better when they want me to photograph it.

 

Kate is my sister-in-law, Kasey’s best friend and Ben is her awesome husband.  I’ve known them for about as long as I’ve known Kasey which at this point might as well be forever.  🙂  They are such an awesome couple and incredibly fun to be around…so when Kate asked me to take some maternity photos for her I was obviously ecstatic.  I met them at their lake house in St. Joe and took some photos to help them remember this exciting time in their life.  Kate and Ben…I’m so excited for you guys and can’t wait to meet baby Trumball!
