{Amanda + Tony} Expecting | Long Beach, CA Maternity Photographer

I can only imagine what it will be like one day to watch Brooklyn reach & accomplish milestones in her life. I kinda feel that sense of proudness now with a hand full of my former students. Amanda is one such girl...a super special girl to me. I've known her since she was a sophomore in my high school Spanish classroom (which is now 10 years ago). She was the perfect student and her work was impeccable. She has an infectious spirit, and is just the kinda person I like to keep in my company. She later became my first Charla BLUE intern and then my steady second shooter for weddings this past couple of years.

I saw her get her heart broke once and I wanted to hurt the b*stard. That was of course before she met her high school sweetheart, who is now her husband and baby daddy. I wasn't sure if there would ever be a man good enough for her...but it just so turns out that Tony is, in fact, the perfect match for her. They recently wed and will be soon welcoming a baby boy into their family. Little Devin will probably be the most loved & adored little dude west of the Mississippi...as he is being born to an incredibly awesome extended family. I can hardly wait to meet him and especially see Amanda graduate on to her next milestone in life...a mom. It kinda makes me want to cry now, writing those words..."a mom". Amanda is going to be a mom, OMG. And an awesome one at that. I already know, because she only knows how to do awesome! I love you guys!
