I met Roxanne Bellamy  [@roxannebellamy] on a shoot last summer in Mia. She was assisting the photographer and agreed to take some bts shots of me. I loved her eye + every shot she took. So, when I knew we’d be in Miami and I’d be huge, I reached out for her to shoot me. She said no.

She’s a brilliant creative director + stylist, and not a photographer. I understood. She offered to connect me with some photographers, and I declined bc I knew what I wanted… her. A couple weeks later she reached back out, and with a full disclaimer (you know I love a disclaimer) she agreed to my maternity shoot.

I wanted what I always want: simple but meaningful and to capture the moment. That meant: me + my girl + the water. I think she nailed it.
