“As soon as Toni opened the door and I saw her for the first time, that’s when I knew she was the one.” And so it proved to be.
Marc and Toni met online, and from the first few messages, they both felt a connection. After a few disappointing dates with other prospective partners, this time felt so different.
So much so, that after they met up for the first time, they had their second date later that very same day. Five years later, and it’s clear that they are still absolutely besotted with each other.
They travelled up to my Bicester Studio for their maternity photos, so they could capture the anticipation of becoming parents, as well as the beauty and magic of pregnancy. With just seven weeks to wait until baby’s due date, the pair are super-excited about becoming parents.
Marc is an incredibly experienced boxer, who now coaches youngsters. He can’t wait to take his son along to his first boxing match.
Toni can’t wait to cuddle her baby when he arrives, and fill his life with love and laughter.
“Toni’s so loving,” Marc said, “she’s going to be such a great mum. She really inspires me, too, she’s been through a lot but is so strong.”
Not only that, but Toni has got the most beautiful smile, too:
I can’t wait to meet their new arrival in a few weeks!
After our shoot, Toni & Marc said:
“My husband and I had a ‘Bump’ pregnancy photoshoot with Sarah a few weeks ago and we are so glad we did!! Sarah was amazing with us and made us feel at ease the whole way through, considering we had never done anything like this before we couldn’t believe how comfortable Sarah made us feel throughout. She knew exactly how to get us to smile so it was natural in the photos, and knew the perfect ways to get beautiful photos. Sarah sent me everything we needed to know before hand and tips of what to wear etc, not only that but what we liked to drink and had refreshments of exactly that, waiting for us on our arrival. I’m so glad we found Sarah for our photoshoot, and now we have beautiful memories of our pregnancy to put up on the wall. I can’t wait to have our newborn photoshoot done in August when our baby boy arrives!! Thank you so much Sarah, you are amazing at what you do!! Highly recommended :)”
