Fall Maternity Session at Fox Brook Park | Ellie + Mike

At the beginning of October, I met up with Ellie and Mike at Fox Brook Park in Brookfield to document their fall maternity session! Although the weather was a little cool and misty, the fall colors were on full display and I loved that the park was quiet.

Once their daughter arrives, they will transition from a family of six to a family of seven…Mike and Ellie already have two cats and two dogs at home!! From this statement, you can probably conclude that they love spending time with all four fur babies! Therefore, we started out the session by capturing some family photos with the two pups (sorry no cats showed-up at this photo session). Then, once the pups had enough treats, 😉 we placed them in the car and took more close-up photos of mom and dad. 

Fun fact: Four years ago (-1 week), Ellie and Mike were taking photos in the same exact spots for their wedding day! It will be so much fun for them to look back on each milestone and reminisce.

Thank you SO much, Ellie and Mike, for allowing me to document this your fall maternity session at Fox Brook Park and this special time in your lives! I look forward to meeting your sweet daughter and documenting her newborn photos in December!
