Sacramento Sunshine!
This past weekend was filled with all sorts of fabulous sunny moments for me! My Mom, my Sister, my Son and I all took a trip to Sacramento where I got the Maternity photos I’ve always dreamed about done.
We left Colorado Thursday morning….just in time to miss out on three solid days of snow! In our neck of the woods, snow in mid-April is pretty rare. So I was quite pleased to be heading off to soak up some Sacramento sunshine while everything melted off!
We caught a beautiful weekend, and were able to spend quite a lot of time in the swimming pool (4 year olds get a pretty large vote when it comes to picking activities), and we even visited San Francisco for a day where we got to see the giant redwoods. One of my favorite parts about the weekend, though, was getting to visit my good friend (and also the photographer who did my Maternity photos), Karen!
Karen and I have worked together for about 4 years now (she’s the one who takes all those adorable photos of the babies wearing my knit and crochet items), and haven’t seen each other for about 3. So getting the chance to catch up, chat business, and just spend some time together was really amazing.

Anyways, since I’ve been talking about this trip and about my upcoming Maternity photos for such a long time now, I’m thrilled to finally get to share some of them with you! I know it’s not knit or crochet related…..but this is a huge part of my life. One of the things I pride myself on in this business and community is the relationship I’ve created with you. Which means I’m always a fan of sharing personal things! So hopefully you don’t mind.
Here are a few of my favorite photos from the session.
If you’re in the Sacramento area, be sure to look up Karen Marie with Belly Beautiful Portraits. Her work is incredible and she does all sorts of photography including Maternity, Newborn, Family, and Children!

Awesome photos!!! So excited for you!!
Becoming a mommy was exciting for me and so was becoming a grandma!! Babies are so precious and special.
Congratulations on your new little miracle!!
Thank you, Michelle! I’m feeling very blessed right now. Charlie has been, by far, the best thing that ever happened to me….so getting to add another member to the family is overwhelmingly awesome!
Very beautiful. Between my daughter being a photographer and doing pregnancy sessions, and her having her own pregnancy shots done (twins now almost 2), I love seeing what other photographers are doing. (I personally can barely point and click LOL). What a wonderful memory of your pregnancy.
Thank you Sherrill! I feel very lucky to have the photos as a memory for sure!

Stunning photos – you look absolutely beautiful, your happiness shines through in all of them. My own precious granddaughter turns 1 tomorrow – you helped me this time last year when I was knitting the Little Lamb Bonnet & Overalls set for her newborn photo shoot – the photographer received so many compliments as she just looked so delightful. Happy memories, and lots more in the making – for your family and ours.
Congratulations,, Beautiful pictures,, I wish you much joy with your precious little one..
Absolutely gorgeous! I’m so happy for you!
Melody, these photos are stunning and capture such a beautiful moment. I’m in awe!
You are abosolutely Beautiful! Amazing photography! Very tastefully done!
Just LOVE these gorgeous photos and you look enchanting in all of them!! Karen’s work and your work is just inspiring. Please keep the beautiful work flowing. Of course we’ll understand if there is a bit of a break there while you get to know your newborn (son, I believe). Remember, don’t blink and document all those cute little songs, phrases and looks that are so much easier to record now with both video and photos 🙂
