Being pregnant can be one of the most wondrous and magical adventure that you can ever experience. You will most likely feel love, patience and other emotions that bubble up within you.

You also look forward to your baby's arrival in this world with huge anticipation. You long for the day when you can finally physically carry your baby in your arms and look at your baby in the eyes.

Your baby will only be inside of you for nine months, so enjoy the intimacy as long as it lasts.Wishing you a healthy and love-filled pregnancy!

A baby is something you carry inside you for nine months,
in your arms for three years and in your heart till the day you die.
-- Mary Mason

 

A mother's joy begins when new life is stirring inside..
when a tiny heartbeat is heard for the very first time,
and a playful kick reminds her that she is never alone.

Whens the best time for maternity pictures?

I would recommend taking "belly shots" once a week just for yourself...but have professional pictures done around 7-8 months. Any stretch marks that you may or may not have can be airbrushed out if you want. Many maternity sessions are done in my studio. I understand the reasons behind this. I’ve been pregnant 3 times over. Studio shoots are great because there’s privacy. I can’t argue with that, particularly if you’re going to do anything in less than a fully clothed state (that’s my PC way of saying naked). But there’s something about being outside. and taking that natural  beauty of a woman who’s ready to bring new life into the world and placing her in the majesty of the great outdoors is simply breathtaking. 

 

What should I wear to my maternity photo-session?
What you wear to your maternity photo session will largely depend on the style of maternity photos you are looking for as well as your level of personal comfort.We accomplish maternity photos for a variety of women and couples. Some people are interested in very artistic, nude or semi-nude portrayals of their pregnancy. The goal with most maternity photos is to capture that time when a woman's body progresses through the remarkable and beautiful changes inherent of carrying a child. These changes include not only your tummy, but skin, breasts, hips, hair, etc. Capturing these changes help to illustrate the transition you have accomplished.  Others take a more conservative approach and wish to be fully or partially clothed.  It is common for a mixture of those styles to be utilized.  No matter what style you would like, you will need to wearclothing that will show off your beautiful belly.  Stretch pants or pants with low waistlines will prevent them from bunching up too much when lowered to show your tummy.  Lingerie, robes, undergarments, button down shirts, blankets can all be used to produce beautiful maternity photos.  Some soon-to-be-moms will even bring props with them like teddy bears,baby blankets, etc. Bring a mixture of items and just have fun!

 


Should I do my maternity portraits alone or with my husband? 

That is completely up to you.  You may also bring mom or friends... anyone you like for moral support. If you are comfortable having them there during your session, then by all means, bring them along.
