Downtown Haddonfield, NJ  | Bill and Missy 

It’s a pleasure to highlight on the blog Bill and Missy’s maternity portraits.  Missy was seven months pregnant and later in the month the Rappos would celebrate five years of marriage.  So many exciting moments in their lives. While pregnant, Missy enjoyed the feeling and beauty of carrying life within.  She also adored the cute maternity clothes.  This was an enjoyable time!  Also, this session was extra special because I’ve known Missy since elementary school.  Can you imagine how much fun it was for me to reconnect with her during this milestone?!  

We began our portraits with a special book Bill and Missy would read to their baby boy… “Guess How Much I Love You”.  The book was a gift and it would be enjoyed as the baby grows. I can imagine their boy telling them “I love you this much!”  and one of my favorites, “I love you right up to the moon and back!”  …Oh, just melt my heart!

Maternity Portraits in Downtown Haddonfield

The portraits took place in two locations.  First, we captured stunning photos in downtown Haddonfield.  I enjoyed having the scenery filled with quaint little shops decorated with flowers to charming restaurants. It was a perfect Saturday to stroll through the town.  Throughout their session, Bill and Missy showed such a special connection.  It was a joy to witness the happiness between them and the excitement of celebrating this stage of their lives.

Maternity Portraits in Cooper River Park

The second part of our session took place in Cooper River Park.  We took advantage of the golden light during sunset.  Bill and Missy brought balloons to celebrate the coming of their baby boy!  We ended our session with a balloon release and a special wish for their son.  


Butterfly Kisses to their Baby Boy

The following is a little love letter, “Butterfly Kisses”, that the Rappos wrote for their son.

Dearest Baby D,
There are no words to express how much joy and love you have brought into our lives. Your parents will always be there for you through your triumphs and tribulations. Keep God in your heart and treat others with kindness. We hope and pray all your dreams come true. You are loved so much. You have taught us so many things and let us live life through your eyes, which makes this journey as parents even more magical. Son, you are our pride, you are our reason, you are our life. We love you now and forever…love Mommy and Daddy
