Maternity photoshoot with Chloe and Rich

When Chloe and Rich met through Tinder, little did they know how much their lives would change completely as a result.

They went out for dinner for their first date, and got on well. Chloe mentioned that it was her dad’s 60th birthday the following day, and asked Rich if he would like to come.

Rich imagined a small family gathering, and agreed to tag along. When he turned up the next day, he was a little surprised to meet Chloe’s whole family at a huge party. Talk about in at the deep end!

No matter how nervous he may have felt at the time, he clearly charmed everyone, as Chloe’s family love him just as much as she does.

The couple moved in together and got a cockapoo called Stan. They now spend their free moments walking and interacting with him.

Those free moments have been especially fleeting recently, however, as the couple are also in the middle of a full renovation of their home, which they hope to complete before baby arrives in just over a month and a half!

There’s nothing like a hard deadline to get a person motivated, and so Rich has been using his plumbing and heating skills to do as much as possible himself.

Nonetheless, the end is now in sight, and Chloe can already visualise cuddling up with their new arrival on a comfy sofa, watching a film together and enjoying the transformation from a couple to a family of three.

After all, isn’t that why we look for someone to love, and to love us? Whether we meet them online or down the pub, whether we get to know them slowly or meet their whole tribe on the second date; what we’re really looking for is our lives to change completely; for the better, forever.

And that’s certainly been the case here 🙂

After her photoshoot with me Chloe said:

“I was really nervous about having my photo taken but Sarah made me feel really comfortable. The photos she has taken are really lovely and it is something I will treasure forever. I would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone thinking about having their photos taken, especially for family events and occasions. Thank you so much!”
