Mikel + David | Lancaster Airport Maternity Session | Lititz, PA
I know I say it all the time... but WOW my business has me meeting and photographing some of the COOLEST couples! Mikel and David met in pilot school. Yes, they're both commercial pilots. How stinkin cool is that?! So obviously we had to include planes in their maternity session and the Lancaster Airport was the perfect location.
They've both dreamed of owning their own plane for a long time. And in Novemever they took a leap of faith and brought Cali the plane into their lives. They knew it was now or never and with them wanting to start a family who knew when they'd be able to make that dream a reality. The timing was perfect because not too long after they found out they were expecting their first little one. Kismet!
I loved every single moment of photographing the 4 of them (Mikel, David, Little Peanut and Cali of course!)! Mikel insisted we get some maternity photos where "they don't look like weirdo's with their plane" so we did some more traditional maternity shots at the end, but I'm partial to the ones that include their plane. I mean how often do you get to include a plane in your maternity session? Or any session for that matter?!
Mikel and David kept pointing out planes to one another at the airport and trying to guess the type with one another. It was their own little game they play with each and it was adorable! It's obvious they are both passionate about what they do and love their jobs. I don't think there's anything "weird" about that. Mikel and David I think you guys are the coolest and I will NEVER forget this maternity session for as long as I live!
