Maternity & Motherhood


A season worth remembering.

Pregnancy holds so much at once: anticipation, change, excitement & the quiet moments of waiting to meet the little person already changing your world.


My maternity sessions are designed to document this season in a way that feels beautiful, connected & true to you. Whether we're chasing golden light outdoors or creating something timeless in the studio, I'll guide you throughout the experience so you can simply be present and celebrate this chapter.


Partners & children are always welcome.


All families and all kinds of love are welcome here.

When should i book my maternity session?

Quick guide:
  • Inquire → Second trimester
  • Photograph → 28 - 34 weeks
  • Sweet spot → 30 - 32 weeks

I recommend reaching out during your second trimester so we have plenty of time to choose your session, location, wardrobe & date.

Maternity sessions typically take place between 28–34 weeks, with 30–32 weeks being my personal sweet spot for most expecting mamas. At this stage, your belly is beautifully defined while you're often still comfortable enough to move, walk & enjoy the experience.



Every pregnancy is different, so we'll choose a timeframe that feels right for you. If you're carrying multiples or have circumstances that may make an earlier session more comfortable, we can plan accordingly.

 

choose your maternity experiences


Maternity sessions are best scheduled between 28 and 32 weeks, with flexibility up to 34 weeks depending on how you are feeling.

You don't have to have everything figured out before you book.

You'll receive styling guidance to help you choose pieces that photograph beautifully and still feel like you. You'll also have access to my maternity client wardrobe, with the option to schedule a try-on at my Fair Oaks studio before your session.


Whether you choose something from the client wardrobe or bring something you already love, we'll plan your look together so you feel comfortable & confident in front of the camera.

Already thinking about newborn photos?

From bump to baby 🤍

If you already know you'd love to document both your pregnancy and those first days with your baby, you don't have to plan the two experiences separately.


My Bump to Baby Bundle allows you to reserve your maternity and newborn sessions together, giving you a beautifully connected experience from pregnancy through baby's arrival.


When you reserve both, you'll receive $100 off your newborn session, and I'll reserve space around your due date on my newborn calendar.



Includes:

  • Maternity session planning
  • Newborn due date reserved on my calendar
  • $100 off your newborn session
  • A seamless experience from pregnancy to baby’s arrival


WHAT TO EXPECT


You don't need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That's my job.


I'll guide you throughout your session with posing, movement & prompts that help everything feel natural while still creating beautiful, intentional portraits.


We'll move at a comfortable pace, make adjustments as needed & leave plenty of room for connection with your partner and children.


My goal is for you to walk away not only loving your photographs, but feeling beautiful and cared for throughout the experience.
