Inspiration

Thanks to more rainy weekends, a trip to NY and a few bad colds, we didn’t have another chance to shoot until week 15. It’s not easy pretending to be a model during your first trimester, I’ll tell you that much. This week we headed downtown to check out the Arts District, which resulted in a plethora of location options for future weeks. When I saw this fiery red mural I knew it was the one I had to start with.

Week 8 was a bust due to inclement weather, so we had to pick back up on our little project in Week 9. You have to love living in a city where you can get away with just a light cardigan in the middle of December, which is when this photo was taken. When my sci-fi loving husband spotted this spaced-out mural we knew we had to make it a part of this photo series.

I decided it was only appropriate to share a little personal project of mine here on the blog, since it’s turning out to be a fun one and seems more than relevant. Let me begin by confessing I was heavily inspired by this maternity series, photographed by Ryan Marshall, which I originally stumbled across several years ago. It’s amazing. So when the time came to start shooting my own photos, I figured out the details and put my talented husband to work, handing him the camera.

With a closet full of patterned clothes, we set out to document the growth of our little one amidst the artistic backdrop of Los Angeles. Come back next week for an update in our ongoing series: Patterns, Preggos & Painted Places.
