Jill is almost done cooking her baby, & is doing it beautifully in the meantime.

Pregnancy & Jill? It just suits her. It really does. Her little one (a boy or a girl!) is due to come in just a few weeks & I snapped some photos of her on Wednesday afternoon to document the bump. Jill had this phenomenal idea of starting at the Hudson Hotel on the west side. Oh my gosh, the place is just amazing. If I were Jill, I'd give you a really thorough explanation of the philosophy behind the design & decor, but, um, I can't. I guess I can only say that it was a mix of modern & awesomeness. The terrace, the art, the chandelier in the lobby... I think I need to go grab a drink (club soda?) there sometime, just for an excuse to go back. Amazing. Afterwards, we headed to Central Park with Brad & just wandered. I love the bridges in the park & always seem to be running into a new one. The one we found was perfect. Loved it. Loved seeing Brad & Jill so happy & am so excited for them to become mom & dad.

I really should comment more, because I always read your posts and I always think your photography is awesome. I really loved these shots! Great great work. You are so talented! I especially love the last two.

She looks gorgeous even 9 months pregnant. These are darling Kathryn. I still love the ones you took for me so much. I have a few framed on my wall and I just adore them.

You are so talented.

The one at the NYC intersection (?) just her is my favorite, I think. Beautiful Jill!

She looks amazing, I can't believe the little one is almost here.

We put people up at the Hudson Hotel all the time, but I had never seen it before. Let me know if you ever want to stay there, I can get you a great rate (also at the Lucerne and a few other places).

I've never seen such a pretty pregnancy. Really. You're great, Kathryn.

I think it's a boy, Jill.

Beautiful. She looks radiant and almost makes me want to be pregnant again. That's saying something!

This has done nothing to help my broodiness!! Jill is beautiful (I hope she reads all of these comments!) and I love the same one Missy did the best (I love her turquoise bag and the bright pop of red scarf).

Beautiful. And Jill, if you do read these comments - Welcome to Motherhood. You are going to LOVE it!
