Six years ago Dan & Brittany traveled to Sturgeon Bay, Door County for a mini-moon after their wedding. They loved how quaint and natural the peninsula is and enjoyed themselves immensely. As a surprise, Dan planned a baby-moon for Brittany so they could enjoy the beauty of Door County together once more.

Brittany & Dan

Sturgeon Bay Maternity Session

Six years ago Dan & Brittany traveled to Sturgeon Bay, Door County for a mini-moon after their wedding. They loved how quaint and natural the peninsula is and enjoyed themselves immensely. As a surprise, Dan planned a baby-moon for Brittany so they could enjoy the beauty of Door County together once more. During their visit, Dan & Brittany celebrated with a Sturgeon Bay Maternity Session.

Brittany is thirty-three weeks pregnant and counting down the days until they meet their sweet baby. She described her pregnancy as exciting and is ready to begin this new adventure with Dan. Meanwhile, Dan is ecstatic to take their little one on all kinds adventures along with their pup, Keena.

Although, in honesty she said it’s been a bit stressful. The isolation during quarantine this year has given her the feeling of missing out on a few of the joys of pregnancy. However, the alone time has given them the time to share their dreams and plans about parenthood with one another. I think 2020, has proven to be a difficult process to navigate and these two are doing amazing! They both admit there have been silver linings throughout all of this. Dan & Brittany are both such positive lights in this world and you can see how much love they are bringing this sweet child into.

I personally can’t wait to see them on their adventures! They’ll soon be hiking, camping, and staying at the cabin on the lake with their little one. All while finding a way to share their love of the outdoors, Italian food, ice cream, and their three fur babies with their new bundle of joy!

A note from, The Helgesons!

Brittany & Dan, you are already making parenthood look so good! The support and laughter you bring each other is obvious in conversation and apparent after spending just a few moments together you! Wishing you two the very best in life with your sweet child to be! We were honored to document your Sturgeon Bay Maternity Session.
