There’s something magic about the way the Pacific decides to show off right when you need it to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Chai and Addie’s\u00a0maternity session<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 celebrating\u00a0baby #2<\/strong>\u00a0on the way \u2014 we headed to\u00a0Windansea Beach in La Jolla<\/strong>. What we didn’t plan for was the ocean deciding to perform: massive\u00a020-foot waves<\/strong>\u00a0crashing against the rocks, mist hanging in the air, wind pulling at Chai’s gorgeous red dress as she cradled her belly. Fitting, honestly \u2014 there’s something about the ocean’s power that mirrors exactly what a body does to grow a whole new human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, right on cue, the sky joined in. As the sun dipped low, La Jolla lit up in gold, coral, and violet, waves catching the light mid-crash. Golden hour + storm surf + a soon-to-arrive baby \u2014 you can’t recreate that in post, you just have to be there for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huge thanks to Chai + Addie for trusting me with this milestone \u2014 can’t wait to share the full gallery, and even more excited to meet baby #2. \ud83c\udf05\ud83d\udc76<\/p>\n\n\n\n
