Most people these days know her as Rebecca, but to me she will always be Becky. We grew up together at the Butterfields dance studio in Minnesota, spending countless hours in dance classes, rehearsals, competitions and recitals. Hands down, Becky is one of the most lovable people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She is also a phenomenal workout instructor at The Firm in Minneapolis, where she spends her days making people sweat & stay fit and healthy. Thank goodness for Facebook — we were able to reconnect a few months before her Maui wedding and Elan & I were able to be part of her big day! Now, two years later, Becky & Matt are expecting a little one! We’re so very happy for both of them.

This sweet, sassy lass is WanYu. These are the final days of her pregnancy and in a few short weeks, she’ll be having a baby girl. She is a workout-aholic and many times a week you can find her teaching a grueling spin class at 24 Hour Fitness on Maui–even with her big pregnant belly. She has an organic beauty about her.

Here are some pictures taken before heading down to see the 50 foot waves at Jaws. Thanks to WanYu and her very pregnant belly, we had no problem hitchhiking to and from Jaws, saving our legs from walking 4 miles through pineapple fields.

Meet my sweet friend Nova. She’s 8 months pregnant and the baby is due on January 10th. This will be their second child and she and her husband Kevin are thrilled that they are expecting a girl this time! Nova stands just under 5 feet tall, but don’t let that fool you, what she lacks in height she makes up in spunk & personality. She is goofy, tells outrageous stories and she always has a big smile on her face. Always. Every time I hang out with this girl, there is always someone who comes up to her to tell her that she’s glowing. It’s true, she does glow. And she makes being pregnant look beautiful. Last Wednesday I had the great pleasure of photographing her.
