Erin and Zack are so excited to welcome their baby girl to their family in a few short weeks.  In the fall, we documented their pregnancy announcement in Upper Bidwell Park; so it seemed fitting to take their maternity portraits in Bidwell Park as well.  They have been so fortunate to be able to capture Chico’s fall and spring environments in their portraits.  If you would like to view more maternity blog posts from this spring, please click on Julia + Nick, Haley + Matt, and Kristi.

Big Sister did an amazing job during our time together.  We were able to capture plenty of family pictures, Big Sister and Erin, and then even some of Big Sister kissing Erin’s growing tummy.  Big Sister helped to make sure her mother and father were in the correct spots for their pictures.  She brought along a toy cow that may have snuck into a picture or two!  I love the picture below where Big Sister has the most joyful expression on her face!   She makes me smile!

Erin and Zack, I truly had a wonderful time seeing your family again.  I cannot believe that the next time we run into each other around town, you may have a family of four!  Your daughter was fabulous!  I love her big personality and nonstop energy.  She will be the best big sister.  I know that she is going to teach her baby sister all that she needs to know and then some more!  I can imagine that she will also be the most entertaining person to your baby girl.  I am so excited to watch your hearts continue to grow with love as you welcome your sweet baby girl into your lives.  I am so excited for you to see some of my many favorites from our time together.
