This maternity session in the studio is the start of something beautiful. This sweet mama and her baby on the way is the main story. And the backstory is that there are lots of maternity and newborn sessions on the horizon and I couldn’t be happier! Focusing on this niche has allowed me to explore new techniques and offerings like this overhead angle, mixing studio and natural light and a new wardrobe of maternity gowns, newborn swaddles and knitted things. I feel like a kid at Christmas!
The Benefits of a Studio
Mamas with babies due in mid-winter or early-spring don’t really have an outdoor session as an option unless there is a fresh layer of snow and they don’t mind the cold. So the studio is a great option and it’s not just backdrops and studio lights. In this session, we did some natural light shots, some shots with studio lighting and a backdrop, and some with mixed lighting. We had so much fun with the new gowns and the mustard bodysuit, which surprised me as one of my favorites from the set! This mama said she felt beautiful and had fun and that is exactly the experience I want to provide for expecting mamas. Pregnancy is an amazing adventure and so beautiful to document. If you are expecting and would like to talk about maternity or newborn photos, I’d love to hear from you!
