I met Jasmin back in 2008 when I designed her couture wedding invitations via Bella Invites (my invitation design company) – they were pretty “blingtastic” if I do say so myself. Lavender handmade silk gatefold boxed invitations, with Midori ribbon belly band and crystal closure….I’m including a photo because I’m kind of proud of these “babies”!

So, speaking of “babies” – I was so excited when I heard from Jasmin that she was expecting her own baby in May! I was invited to Jasmin’s home a couple of weeks ago to document her now 37-week-pregnant tummy and it was such a fun day. We started out with her all done up and sporting her fabulous Christian Louboutin heels, this lady can rock these shoes even when super pregnant – what a superstar!


Here is Jasmin with her first “baby” – Hudson!

Then we just did a simple outfit and I LOVE how they turned out – you are gorgeous Jasmin!

It isn’t a “Tenderheart Photography” shoot without my trademark “love heart” making its appearance somewhere in the images….


Jasmin, you look like a goddess with the white sheer draping….so pretty!!

Check out the happiness in her eyes and that maternal glow she has going on in this one….
She knows that she’s expecting a little boy so we had fun with these little blue shoes…

The trooper that Jasmin is, she didn’t even hesitate at my suggestion to get some shots outside – even in the chilly air and drizzle she rocked it out! …and so did Hudson!


Thanks for the wonderful shoot Jasmin (and the dee-lish greek lunch!), I can’t wait to meet your new baby soon – you and Sean are going to be amazing parents!
