Woohoo! We’re finally on maternity leave! After 12 weddings and countless sessions while pregnant, I’m finally on leave until late September.

In all fairness, despite morning sickness and extreme hunger-I truly did not start feeling different/seeing a change in my body until around 25 weeks. So this is me admitting I don’t really have any ‘bump’ pictures to […]
