Remember when we went to Palm Springs for our Babymoon in January (see our trip here and here)? Well, since I knew we were going to such a photogenic spot I wanted to try and get in a mini desert maternity photo shoot while we were there so I brought along a pretty dress for it juuuuust in case. Our friend Ryan is a profesh photographer and took some photos for us at magic hour one night near the mountains and I really love how they turned out…
Such a pretty location, right?! If you ever go to Palm Springs this is just behind the “Welcome to Palm Springs” sign when you first get to town and there’s even a parking lot nearby so it’s super accessible to get to for photos. Also, I know you’ll ask but I tried and I can’t find the link to that nude lace dress! It’s from Forever 21 so if you can find the link and it’s still available, let me know so I can share. Can’t wait to print a few of these out and display them around the house, thanks Ryan!

These are beautiful!! Your DIYs on a Beautiful Mess are so great, I wish more things like this were featured on that site. I also CANNOT believe that dress is from Forever 21.
Thanks Mila! This blog is more about my life and whatnot so you can always check for more personal updates here 🙂

These are simply stunning! The 6th picture (of just you) is gorgeous and the one of you Todd looking at each other is adorable. Your little girl is going to be so mesmerized with them growing up!
Aw, thanks Ella! I hope she thinks they are special too!

You look STUNNING! Can’t wait to see Gummergal 2.0! Xoxo
Ok 2 things:
1. What extensions do you use? My hair is the same color and I’d like clip in’s. Tired of the tape in’s!
2. What shoes did you wear with this? I have the same dress but I’m a bit stumped!
Can’t remember the brand but they are in an orange box at Sally beauty (about $120) and they were dyed to match by my stylist. Shoes are these!
