The moment I got on a call with Katherine I knew this is going to be a fun maternity session. Her whole family is just so much fun and sometimes you just meet people that You just click with, this is a beginning of a beautiful friendship :) We did a total of 4 looks for her maternity session and she was game to try anything. I'm totally obsessed with this gallery.
Oh how I love when I can be creative with the maternity photoshoot. After a quick phone call I knew I had to do something special for these two. We've decided on the wardrobe and i got to work setting it up. We went with mostly green since it's an absolute favorite color of the the momma to be. I'm absolutely obsessed with how it all turned out. Bring me all maternity sessions!!!
Jackie and Steve came to me for a last minute maternity session and oh man we had fun! Also for everyone that doesn't believe that 9am photoshoots can look like a golden hour photoshoots here is Your proof :) We walked, we sat, we laughed so so much. They are keeping the name a secret so this whole session me and miniBuster tried to guess the name. We've failed. Thank You guys! I had a blast meeting you and can't wait to meet that little guy and laugh some more <3
Cody and Sarah are my longtime customers. We've met when Cody worked on my house we are building. We already did a surprise engagement, and birthday party, 2nd birthday photoshoot, wedding and now a maternity session. When Sarah contacted me for this photoshoot I knew I had to make something special for them. We've build two towers to put some boho grass and palm leaves, white box for posing on it and got to sewing to make the green dress. We went with green, cream and brown and I'm obsessed! I love when I can work with people that trust my vision and the more I get to know them the better our shoots get.
,Congratulations on the incoming baby in your life, and hello from me.
In the busy-ness of life, it’s not often that we set aside some time to appreciate what our bodies can do. Scheduling in a maternity session is the perfect way to celebrate the everyday miracles that happen during this gestation process. Even through the exhaustion, back pain, and the nausea, your body is making another human! If that’s not worth celebrating, then hell – I don’t know what is. A question that comes up a lot is, “when is the best time to book maternity photos?” This is an important one to get right – most people aren’t up for booking two maternity sessions in the same pregnancy. But the answer isn’t so clear cut. It’s different for everyone. So, how do you know? The day before the shoot, throw some things in a bag that will support you during our session. These things could be the following, or whatever else comes to mind. Extra clothes for if the weather changes Snacks and water Hairbrush, extra makeup For maternity shoots, nude and raw images can be incredibly stunning, enhancing your expectant curves and featuring your blooming belly. But depending on how you want to remember your pregnancy and who you expect to see the images, there are a couple of things to consider. If you want to keep your clothes on, I offer a lot of gorgeous outfits with You session - You can see them in a Client Closet tab. Once we pick a location together, we can discuss color palettes that will help you stand out beautifully against your environment. If you’re leaning towards your birthday suit, I’d advise you to moisturize your belly and stay tuned into your comfort levels. It can be incredibly special having your loved ones join you in front of the camera for your maternity shoot. There’s something so heartwarming about being able to look at the photographs and actually see the connection between yourself, your unborn little one, your partner and/or your other soon-to-be big siblings. Getting them on board can sometimes be a bit of a struggle – though it’s often easier to get the younger kids to come along than it is a hesitant partner. Letting kids be silly, and giving them the chance to see the session as a game is our best chance of capturing some joyful, authentic moments. If your partner is dragging their heels, try to let them know that it’s normal to be less-than-thrilled about being in front of the camera. The photographs that you’ll be able to look back on will make it all worth it. If you’ve gotten to the end of this guide and you’ve got a few questions swirling around in your head that I haven’t answered, please pick up the phone and give me a call. I want you to feel at ease and prepared going into this session. Naiza gave me such a queen vibes! These two were just so much fun to work with and that little girl will be so so spoiled. I love it when clients are game for everything, including maternity pictures in milk bath in the middle of the forest ;)
Every momma deserves to feel gorgeous! Becca and Bobby contacted me after seeing another maternity gallery of mine online. We jumped on a quick phone call and we knew we will go with more boho vibe. Becca chose 3 different dresses from my client closet. Thank You to Bobby for his amazing dress throwing skills and oh those amazing jokes and dance moves. Becca, girl You are glowing <3 Can't wait to meet the little Bella Ella :)
