Even though pregnancy comes with a lot of difficult trials, it is an amazing time in your life. It is a time of celebration and of anticipation as you prepare to meet your little bundle of joy. It’s a time where you become strong – stronger than you ever thought you could possibly be. During this time, you create your initial bond with your child that will continue throughout your entire lives.

There are very few women who actually feel like they are beautiful while they are pregnant – especially during the first pregnancy. However, the miracle of pregnancy is a beautiful thing. Swollen feet, stretch marks, and hormone changes aside – you are growing a real live human being inside of you. All of those side effects come from different things your body has to do to help nourish and protect your baby.

You are beautiful, and you should take the time to celebrate these changes and this amazing moment in your life. These photos will be a great gift to pass down to your child as an heirloom of your first memories with them. This is something they can treasure forever.

I️ would love nothing more than to help you celebrate and remember this time in your life. We can do quiet pictures in your home. We can bring in hair and make up, glam you up and have a Vanity-Fair-Style photoshoot in the studio. Maternity shoots don't have to be long - we can do a quick, simple, fun mini shoot. We can shoot you alone, or with your husband, or with your kids, or with your mom, or with your pregnant friends. Let's connect today and start planning something meaningful.
