The boys enjoyed the snow for about 5 minutes, but it was a good 5 minutes! As much as I like these pictures, I am still wishing for warm weather. This better be the end of the cold (though a maternity swimsuit doesn’t make me long for the pool). Photo Tip: Shooting in overcast snow…

So a little bit back Amanda asked in the comment section for some maternity pics of me….problem is I prefer being BEHIND the camera, so I didn’t have any. That and you aren’t about to get me to wrap gauze around my bare belly in front of a camera. I decided to take advantage of…

just beautiful ashley – you look amazing!
Hi Ashley! I just got on your blog…congratulations on being pregnant & so happy for you that is is a girl! You look great & seem to be doing wonderful work sharing your talent thru teaching. I love the blurred shot as well..it’s beautiful. (don’t rule out the guaze shot…you can always call me..he he)
Keep up the great work & stay healthy. 
You look so good! I’ve always thought the serious model look looks great on others…just never thought it worked with me. I love your creative ideas…who would have thought tank top, hat and snow would make such a great picture-thank you for sharing all your ideas!
Six months… and she’s number 4? Ashley, I’m so jealous! You look fabulous and nice work Chris!
Adorable!
Wow – I know how much you love the cold weather so this is amazing that you got out in the snow in a tank top. These are absolutely amazing – you are beautiful!
your favorite is my favorite.
You are so cute!!!!!!!! I love teh 2nd pic…and I CANNOT believe how great you look for your fourth pregnancy. You look like it’s your first. Everything is tight and in place. I can’t say the same for my second pregnancy.
Ash – You are such a cute, tiny thing. I LOVE these!! Who would ever guess that you are pregnant with #4. These pictures are amazing and have such a cool feel. Way to go, Chris.
Very cool, love the snow pics! The serious is good but I love the 3rd one down, it just reminds me more of you. You are a super cute preggo!
Ashley these are so fun. For someone that hates the cold, I’m quite surprised you volunteered to get out there in a tank top! The second one is my favorite, very vintage.
Really beautiful!
You are a doll! The first and second shots are my favs.
I totally love them! I love the look of them.
Love the model serious face:) Great job, Chris!
You are so beautiful!
Wow, Ash. These are great. Your favorite is my favorite, too. It looks like it could be a post card found in an antique shop.
You are so cute! You seriously look how I can only dream of looking pregnant, much less 6 months pregnant! You need to display these, you really are just GAWWWWGEOUS!
5 years!!! For a few weeks now I’ve been trying to get Biggest Brother out to get his 5 year pics…he wants to head downtown Tulsa, but we just never seem to be able to make it down there. We usually do birthday pictures with sign showing the age, but I forgot it so we’ll…

Corbett – What a handsome and cool guy you are!!! Oh, and nice shirt. Ash – These pictures are amazing and some of my favorite of Corbett. He looks like a tried and true model.
As always, this is extremely eye opening. I would have never thought to look at a place that looked like that from the road. Thanks for taking a step back.
Great pics, Great location and best of all, Great subject. Hard to believe Corbett’s 5. Time sures seems to go quickly. I love his prayer. You and Chris have raised three FANTASTIC boys. Very, very proud of you and your family.
You really are so blessed! What a handsome little man!
so cool…it’s really neat to see your boys grow up on here. Ready to see a little girl Campbell.
Those are great pictures of a very handsome guy! He is getting so big and very mature looking
He just gets more handsome everyday and is becoming such a caring boy. I have my pictures picked out!!!
5 years old! I remember when he was crawling around as a little skunk for Halloween when we first met you. Crazy! What a handsome young man. What a perfect spot for his pictures. Jaxson was looking at the pictures w/ me and he noticed his hurt knee without me even saying anything. I guess it’s a guy thing.
I love how you can take an unasuming location and make awesome pics out of it. You are amazing. However, you have a cutie for a 5yr old, as well.
so true.
i have been driving by these two rusty green dumpsters every night for soccer practice and every time i think “i have got to do pictures there!” funny.
great shots of your handsome little man.
what a big heart he has.
Ah, I love them!! I’m looking forward to trying out my new skills on Jordan’s 6 year pictures in the next week or so. I need to scope out a fun place to take them!!
Ashley, I wish I could take pictures like you! I better start practicing more!!!

Corbett is such a GREAT looking boy! I love it when I find pictures of him in diapers running around our front yards, to this. Way to go guys!
I feel I need to re-word my earlier comment. I meant that it’s a cool location for a little boy’s pics. It kinda sounded like I was saying that the pics were good pics considering Corbett is a boy. Maybe I’m paranoid, but I didn’t want you to think I was being critical of him! He is very handsome!
Corbett has some serious karate skills! These are all so good.
What a little stud! These are definitley some of my favorite Corbett pics. I am loving the location too. I know what you mean about a place looking ugly. My clients sometimes look at me like I am crazy from the places we go. 
Get out! Those pics are awesome — especially for a boy. Thanks for the great tip; I would have never thought of looking at somewhat “grungy” places as great backgrounds
