DETAILS: MATERNITY

I don’t take lightly the job of photographing the stages of your life to be viewed and cherished for generations. Pregnancy is one of those blips in your life’s timeline that comes and goes so quickly, and I’m honored to be the one to document it. Each session is customized to your unique needs and wishes, so I'll send you a brief pre-session questionnaire to learn more about you, and to get an idea of the type of images you're looking for. I offer both full & mini sessions to my maternity clients; evening appointments preferred, but I am always willing to work with your unique schedule. I usually recommend the mini-session if I’m photographing just mom or mom & dad, while the full-session is better if other children are participating. My goal is to capture you in a very natural and authentic way, while also using the most flattering posing techniques to accentuate your bump, while making you look and feel gorgeous. Expect a variety of posed images with everyone looking and smiling, as well as some organic candid moments of you just being real. Maternity portraits are best shot between 28-34 weeks gestation, while your bump is still high and you can still get around easily.

Full Session

During this one-hour session, expect a variety of images of your whole family as a group, plus tons of individuals of just mom and her bump, mom & dad, and the other children loving on their littlest sibling. There’ll be time for individuals of the kids and other groupings, so this full-session ends up feeling more like a regular family session, but with the addition of a bump! Recommended for maternity clients with other children.

Each session requires a 50% non-refundable retainer at he time of booking, with the remaining 50% due at your session. Your 50% retainer is non-refundable, but it is transferable in the case of illness, inclement weather, or other unforeseen circumstances.
