Candace and her daughter, Ellisan, joined us at William B. Umstead State Park, in Raleigh, NC, for a fall maternity photo session in early November.

Umstead Park is a great spot for a photo session. It’s filled with trails and activity, but there are also nice areas where the trees are a little more dense, but not too dense, which made for a little privacy for our maternity photo session with Candace.

But what’s really special about this place is that it’s where Candace came to walk and relax when she was pregnant with Ellisan, her first child.

Candace looked great and we managed to get a few nice photos of her by herself and playing with Ellisan. Special thanks to Candace’s mom, Julianne!
