I hadn&#8217;t yet connected with them because their maternity session (and upcoming newborn portraits) were a gift from Erin&#8217;s sisters. (Side note: what an amazingly thoughtful gift to give!)<\/p>\n<p>When I met them for their maternity session, it turns out that Erin and I had met a few years back during the &#8220;For Women&#8217;s Only&#8221; ski program at Snowbowl. (Funny how small towns work like that!) It was so nice to see her again in this new stage of her life, and we had such a fantastic time making images to celebrate her mama-ness.<\/p>\n<p>Their 10-year-old border collie mix, Lyra, also joined us for our shoot, and was such a trooper even though she seemed a little confused that we weren&#8217;t all going for a longer walk together and kept stopping a lot to take photos.<\/p>\n<p>We had such a beautiful evening to make Erin, Chris, and Lyra&#8217;s photos. Mother Nature treated us to perfect light, with gorgeous cottonwood fuzz floating around creating a sparkle-like effect.<\/p>\n<p>Erin and Chris&#8217;s little boy is due in early August.\u00a0Erin told me she can&#8217;t quite wrap her mind around his arrival and meeting him for the first time. &#8220;What will he look like?&#8221; she mused. She and Chris are beyond giddy to meet their little man.<\/p>\n<p>Erin, Chris, and Lyra! Thank you for such a fabulous session! I loved everything about your shoot, and I&#8217;m just so excited to meet your little boy very soon!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kristinepaulsenphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Missoula-Summer-Maternity-Photos-Photos-by-Kristine-Paulsen-Photography-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kristinepaulsenphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Missoula-Summer-Maternity-Photos-Photos-by-Kristine-Paulsen-Photography-1.jpg\" alt=\"Erin + Chris :: Missoula Summer Maternity Photos -
