04/02/09 Trunk show and party to celebrate the launch of More of Me Maternity Design at Dawn Price Baby in Georgetown. My friend Jessica is the owner/designer of a maternity line for “women who love to shop and want to maintain their chic appearance during pregnancy.” I shot the images on More Of Me’s web page which was a fun assignment – I found some scenic spots in Georgetown and we did some in studio as well. The model got a kick out of wearing the bump to look the part and Jessica’s daughter got into the act as well.
