Oakdale Maternity Session Ashland, VA

What do you get when you mix glowing first-time parents with a breathtaking 100-acre farm during golden hour?

PURE MAGIC!

This one is close to me and I am so excited to share with you all.

Brooke (the stunning Momma) was my youngest son Weston’s Kindergarten teacher. We were so excited to welcome her and couldn’t have imagined the wonderful year he would have as well as how much he grew to love her (as did my oldest son Mason!). She is simply the best!

It has been a few months of excitement for me with these because they reached out during 2019 mini sessions with this secret I had to keep! I couldn’t have been more excited for them and I already knew how wonderful a mom Brooke was going to be.

I did keep the secret, even from Weston, and I was so excited when they announced and I got to show him. Naturally, the first thing he commented on was their fur baby (he’s a dog whisperer lol). He was so excited to congratulate her when he got to go back to school and said she’d be the “fun” Mom.

I couldn’t agree more.

Brooke, Brad, Briar & I all met just shortly before this pandemic was really all the craze, I am so glad that we did and so happy we all enjoyed this milestone.

The photos don’t do Brooke & Brad justice, they really are amazing and so wonderful to be around. This little girl is already so loved and it makes me melt.

I kept telling Brooke she was a magical Wonder Woman, seriously… look at her! She is beyond gorgeous.

Brad and Briar were such troopers with our photo requests and everyone just did phenomenally. It was so much fun. Briar even got to enjoy an impromptu dip or two in the pond so I’m sure that he’s a fan favorite of me and photo sessions that are to come HAHA.

We enjoyed a beautiful Venue in Ashland VA that recently launched in 2019, Oakdale. It’s stunning. We couldn’t have picked a more perfect venue, a more perfect day, or had a more perfect golden hour. All of it was magical.

Mommas, when you plan your maternity session it’s a must to go all out and get dolled up from head to toe. You deserve it and there’s no better way to spoil yourself a little with an awesome date day with your baby daddy. Celebrate and enjoy every moment you have before baby comes because everything that everyone is telling you about once baby comes is absolutely true. No matter how much you don’t wanna hear it or you are tired of hearing it, it’s true. Soak up this season and enjoy and celebrate it. Brooke’s beautiful gown is from Amazon and was an awesome pick! Enjoy the Bushey family maternity session and stay tuned for their sweet baby girl’s debut.
