August 31, 2019

Mallory has always dreamed of settling down and marrying the love of her life. We thought we saw the epitome of her joy when those dreams came true. As Jimmy proposed to her at sunset in the middle of a sunflower field and when they had a beautiful backyard summer wedding. This new type of happiness, however, trumps them all. The kind of joy that makes her glow, lose a little bit of sleep, and cry happy tears a little more often!

Jimmy and Mallory are so excited to announce that their family is growing by two little feet! In February 2020, the Bull clan will become a family of 5 (including their furbabies of course!).

During our time together, I could just feel their excitement radiating throughout the overlook at Rocky Ridge Park in York, Pa. The number of hugs, squeals of excitement, and “Oh my gosh I am so happy I am sweating!” comments exceeded the number of fingers I have to count on before we were even halfway through the session.

“I am going to be jumping up and down regardless of how I find out”

– Jimmy Bull

My favorite part of the evening happened before their pregnancy reveal session even started. As Jimmy sat in the back seat creating the sign for their pregnancy announcement, Mallory was chatting about their decision to privately find out the sex of their baby and then celebrate with a gender reveal for their family and friends. They are looking forward to having a special and intimate moment together, a short secret they get to carry with them until their reveal party. Jimmy called upfront that he would like the doctor to still place the sonogram in an envelope so they can find out at home and have their own little surprise. But before he could even complete his own sentence he replied with, “I am going to be jumping up and down regardless of how I find out!”

As I glanced back in the rearview mirror a few moments later I could see Jimmy’s face looking out the window, a smile from ear to ear, thinking about his unborn baby. A memory I will never forget. Mal and Jimmy are so thrilled for this next chapter in their lives and are forever grateful for the continuous support of each other, their family and their friends as they embark on this new journey together!

If this baby has a shoe obsession like his/her daddy, they are going to need everyone’s support! Did someone say shoe fund?!
