Lancaster County Park is probably my absolute favorite location to do photo sessions year round, but it especially shines in the spring. My other top spring location is Buchmiller Park because you can find the weeping cherry trees there along with an old magical crab apple tree where the light hits just right at golden hour.
This maternity photo session happened in the first half of April which is typically peak spring for flowering trees. I love the ethereal romantic periwinkle blue dress that Dana wore. I had to make sure to take photos with the sunlight shining through the tulle. If you are thinking about scheduling maternity photos, I recommend planning on somewhere between 28-34 weeks pregnant. Luckily we fit this photo session in just in time because their baby boy ended up arriving early, just a week after these photos were taken!
