Maternity
Why Maternity Photography
From finding out your are pregnant, to meeting your baby for the first time, the 9 months you are pregnant is a crazy time, and a woman’s body is extraordinary for what it can do to grow and sustain a human life. I 100% believe every woman’s body is beautiful, especially while pregnant, and worth capturing in this season. For all of the changes you are going through while pregnant, some welcome and some difficult, your body is beautiful, amazing and capable of bringing new life into the world. Celebrate it and document it!
This maternity session had beautiful skies, warm weather, and a sweet couple waiting to meet their baby girl. Often for maternity shoots I like to ask my couples to bring an ultrasound picture to use for a prop in a few photos.
Sara and Robert’s maternity session this spring reminded me why I love spring photo sessions. A highlight was when we were walking up the hill to our final location and discovered the hillside was covered in blooming lupines.
The fall colors in Boise were really popping for this maternity session. Fall is really something special in Boise, but it goes by fast!
The evening of this maternity session one of those random Boise summer storms rolled in. The weather app showed it ending before we were scheduled to start and so I was banking on that being the case.
One thing I love about summer shoots in Boise is the beautiful wildflowers that pop up sometimes unexpectedly all over the valley and especially the foothills.
Cloudy day shoots often turn out to be some of my favorite because they make for such epic skies. This maternity shoot was no exception and Amber and Trevor were so much fun.
I had the privilege of meeting Mindy & Cody for their maternity session. They are pregnant with their first baby, a boy. We met out at Lake Lowell in Nampa for their maternity session.
I absolutely love doing pregnancy announcement shoots! I love getting to be a part of such an exciting time for a couple or family as they share that they are expecting.
This sweet family is getting ready to welcome their fourth baby and it was an honor to capture this season for them. As soon as we arrived to the location we had picked, it started dumping snow and the wind had picked up.
It is always such a joy to meet first time parents and to capture their joy waiting for their the arrival of their baby. Mitch and Amanda’s session was a cold one, but even the chilly day couldn’t cool off the the warmth exuding from their excitement at meeting their baby boy.
