Maternity Session
Maternity Session
There’s nothing more radiant than a mother with her baby belly! Whether you have a tiny bump in the beginning, a growing tummy between trimesters, or a beautiful 9 month belly, every mother deserves to have these moments immortalized so she can show her sweet little ones “this is you, this is when you were in mommy’s tummy!”
While some days it may feel like your pregnancy is dragging on and on, these 9 months will be over before you know it! So many of my clients come to me sad that they never had portraits taken during their first pregnancy and swearing not to make that mistake this time around. Motherhood is such a gift that should be cherished, honored, and celebrated.
I have one photo of my Mama when she was pregnant with me, and I remember her showing me that photo as a child saying “that’s you in there!” It wasn’t a photo she loved, she thought she looked fat, wasn’t dressed nicely, or anything like what maternity sessions are like these days. She tells me all the time she wishes photographers did sessions then like they do now. I wish she could have had a maternity session of her dreams, and that gives me even more passion to do that for each and every mom who comes my way!
Whether you want to be photographed alone in all your glory, or with your partner, each session includes 45 minutes of camera time, one location, and one outfit. Wardrobe changes, additional locations, and extended session times are all available for additional fees. Once your session is over, I will go through each and every image captured, choosing only the best for final processing. Upon completion, typically a two week process, I will schedule you for your Reveal & Ordering session at which time you will see all of your beautiful portraits for the first time and have the opportunity to choose which ones you would like to order for prints, wall art, albums, etc. For every item you purchase (8x10 or larger) you will receive the corresponding digital portrait. I also have USBs available to securely store your digital portraits.
*Additional fees (including, but not limited to, travel, etc) are not included in the session fee.
