Maternity Photos on the Beach

February 25, 2020

At the end of January, Micah’s entire family spent a weekend on the beach for his sister’s 40th birthday. We did one day at Disneyland and spent the rest of our time by the ocean. We stayed at the Newport Beach home we lived in when Eisley was born and it was so much fun to be back in our old stomping grounds. We started praying for good weather around Christmas, and the Lord blessed us with a sunny 75-degree weekend in the middle of winter.

We gifted Micah’s mom a family photoshoot for Christmas, and what better place to take the photos than during our beach weekend? We did an hour-long shoot with Vienna Rose Photography, and even though it was a little chaotic with 8 children ages 6 and under, it went well overall. The kids sometimes smiled and looked at the camera. The setting sun glistened on the water. And we even got to sneak in a few individual family photos and maternity shots.

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
