Expecting Catherine Style

I met Salena  almost three years ago when she interviewed to be part of the dance ministry at 12Stone Church. We arranged to meet at the local Starbucks and I had not yet seen her in person but only communicated with her via email. When she walked in the door, I was taken with her sense of fashion and how put together she seemed. She was donning a sleek creme trench coat she had purchased while on a trip to London with her husband, Sean.  We hit it off right away. I found her easy to talk to and her laughter and heart for God contagious. I had not yet seen her dance, but I felt sure if she could dance even a little,  she would be a great addition to the wonderful team of girls I lead.  My intuition was right, and she soon became a team favorite, always keeping everyone laughing, and her dancing was so elegant and strong.

Now, she and her husband Sean are expecting their first baby. I was so excited when she asked me to do her maternity photos. I knew it would be fun. Salena and Sean love style so much it is their baby girl’s middle name. So, of course, we couldn’t do a typical maternity shoot for this fashionista.

See if you agree!

    […] stunning and yet so goofy? That is Salena. I absolutely love her. You may have seen her brilliant maternity session a couple years ago, when she was pregnant with her daughter, Catherine Style. Then Catherine had a […]
