What you are looking at (on the first photo) is a genuine Galaxy MLS Championship Ring owned by the very proud father-to-be, Chay (the name known to his love ones). As a sports fan (mostly football), I do get very excited to see any type of Championship ring up close. All that Doris (mom-to-be) wanted, was for me to start shooting instead of gushing over the ring. I must admit, photographing a sport theme photo shoot is always fun, even if it was a maternity session. Thank you Chay and Doris for inviting me into your home and giving me the privilege of documenting a very important moment in your lives.

For many soon-to-be moms, the thought of posing for maternity photos can be terrifying. The truth is, maternity shoot is not for everyone. Pregnancy could be of the most mentally vulnerable stages of a woman's life. Many would utter, "I don't feel attractive," "I feel so bloated," or "oh no no no no." However, I shot a few of these sessions and I do see the glow that most people have mentioned to me before. As for me, I feel lucky to have chances to document one of the most important stages of a woman's life.  A stage that would last nine months. For some women, it might be the only nine months they would ever feel the gift of life inside them.
