Jacob is letting me guest-post on his photography blog because the subject happens to be one of my best friends. Kelly and her husband live in Japan and are expecting their first baby in January. When she was home for a visit in September, we took her out in the gorgeous fall weather to capture her incredible mother-to-be-ness.

My husband is a phenomenal photographer (in my totally biased opinion) and he captured so well the fun, passion, wisdom and beauty of my wonderful friend. We love you, Kelly and Philip. Can't wait to meet Cherry Blossom!
