EVELYN MATERNITY – PALM SPRINGS BABYMOON

Feb 20, 2017

Recently, I had the pleasure of capturing Evelyn and Ralph’s baby-moon in one of the most beautiful destinations. We had the opportunity to visit the one and only, Korakia Pensione Hotel. This was their last big milestone before they are due to have their baby, Olivia. Let me tell you all, I was very excited to shoot at this elegant, romantic, and breathtaking spot. The Korakia is one of the many locations in Palm Springs that can capture organic love with the help of many qualities and amenities available in the hotel. From their gorgeous giant Moroccan doors that sweep you into their lobby, or the waterfall feature that take away the noise of everyday stress.
This hotel feels like an oasis getaway, you forget you are in the desert landscape!

I was particularly excited for this session because from previously speaking with these soon-to-be parents, I could feel their excitement. When I met Evelyn and Ralph, it was obvious that true love was in the air. The way that Ralph looked at Evelyn, like the only women he has ever loved. These two are going to be the most loving, caring, and energetic parents. It is evident, that Ralph is going to be a very hands-on dad to their baby Olivia. It is refreshing to see such a positive and supportive role from a soon to be father. The Korakia brought out a of romantic, comforting feeling for these two, as they are about to embark on an incredible journey as they have their first baby girl!

It is couples like these two that make my job so rewarding. While I’m capturing this special time in both of their lives I can start to envision the type of happiness they will have in their future, and that is the best part of it all. Baby Olivia is in for an amazing journey with some pretty down to earth, light hearted parents. Their excitement and dedication to one another is contagious to anyone in the room with them. Baby-moon sessions are a time where we get to capture intimate photos that they can look back on and remember exactly how they felt in that moment in time. These photographs are a memory that they can also share with their daughter someday! The Korakia in Palm Springs was the absolute perfect place to capture their love. Evelyn and Ralph, thank you for including me in your precious baby-moon session, and sharing your love through my photos. I am excited for more sessions like yours where love is evident and can only grow stronger as time goes on!
