Rachel is the kind of friend whose generosity knows no end.  I can’t tell you all the kind things she’s done for me in the few years I’ve known her…the list is long.  So, when the opportunity came to help her get ready for her baby girl, I was ready!!
We spent this last weekend up to our ears in this:

The former sewing room will now be a nursery!!  But, don’t worry…there was plenty of time for fun…including meeting up with Shannon   for lunch and later that day doing a quick little maternity session.  Rachel is one of those girls who looks every bit as amazing pregnant as
she does her everyday-self.  If she wasn’t such a good friend, I’d have
to hate her. 🙂

Here she is with Rick, who was an incredibly good sport and let me take his picture as well.  I LOVE this picture of them!

After taking some pictures at Rachel’s house we ventured outside.  It may look like we are in the middle of Iowa, but we were actually in a dodgey little field in North Hollywood. 

Rachel makes it look beautiful and romantic, but it was a little scary! 🙂

Thank you Rachel…not only for hosting me for the weekend, but also letting me take these beautiful pictures of you.  I can’t wait to meet your little girl!
