Salem Maternity Photographer - Ashley & Alina are expecting!

Although the blog post was lost when my website crashed a few years ago, I documented Ashley & Alina’s gorgeous wedding in 2016. They accidentally started a tradition, where Alina wears a flannel shirt for photos with me. She wore one for their engagement session and then for their wedding. At that point, they realized the trend and decided to continue it. I’ve photographed them 7 times total (I think?) and Alina has worn a flannel shirt every time. Needless to say… I love it!! Ashley is a former pageant girl, so wearing this dress was just second nature for her, which is why she looks so comfortable in it!

Historic Deepwood Estates was the backdrop for this gorgeous session. The reds just popped against that green and fall colored background so perfectly! Oh, and since this post is so outdated, I’m happy to say that Ashley gave birth to a healthy little baby on 12/20/19 (fresh-48 photos coming soon)!
