Maternity
One of the greatest gifts life has to offer
Pregnancy is such a beautiful, fleeting season of life. Maternity sessions are designed to celebrate the anticipation, love, and connection you already share with your little one before you meet them. Whether you envision a timeless studio session or a beautiful outdoor session surrounded by nature, I offer both options so we can create images that feel true to you and your vision. From expecting your first baby to celebrating the newest addition to your family, these photographs preserve the beauty of this chapter for you to cherish for years to come.
FAQ
Do you offer studio or outdoor maternity sessions?
Both! I offer beautiful studio and outdoor maternity sessions, allowing you to choose the setting that best fits your style. Studio sessions are timeless and intimate, while outdoor sessions offer natural scenery and beautiful, glowing light. Not sure which is right for you? I’m happy to help you decide!
When should I book my maternity session?
I recommend booking during your second trimester to ensure you have plenty of time to secure your preferred session date. Summer and fall dates tend to fill especially quickly, so booking early is encouraged.
When should my maternity session take place?
Maternity sessions are typically scheduled between 30–36 weeks. This timing allows your belly to be beautifully rounded while still keeping you comfortable enough to enjoy your session. Every pregnancy is different, so we’ll choose the timing that feels right for you. If you’re expecting twins or multiples, I recommend scheduling your session earlier.
How should I dress for my session?
Wear whatever makes you feel beautiful and comfortable! I’m happy to help with outfit suggestions and can recommend dresses and looks based on what you envision for your session. Every maternity client also receives a complimentary style guide to help you prepare.
When is the best time of day to schedule my session?
For outdoor sessions, I typically recommend early morning or late afternoon/evening when the light is soft and flattering. Many of my clients love the warm, dreamy look of golden hour. Studio sessions offer a little more flexibility with timing and can be done at any time of day.
I don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?
Absolutely! You don’t need to know how to pose or feel comfortable in front of the camera, that’s my job! I’ll guide you through flattering, natural poses throughout your session so you never have to wonder what to do. My goal is for you to feel beautiful, confident, and completely yourself.
Should I bring any props to my session?
Props are completely optional! If there is something special you’d like to incorporate, such as ultrasound images, baby shoes, a special blanket, or another meaningful item, please feel free to bring it. I’m always happy to help find a beautiful way to incorporate sentimental details into your session.
