Part anticipation, part becoming, all of it beautiful. It's more than documenting a bump- it's capturing the way you hold your belly without thinking, the quiet confidence, the excitement and nerves that come with what's next.  
Your session will feel relaxed and supportive, with gentle guidance so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands or where to look. We'll create images that feel like you. Whether you come alone, bring your partner, or include your little ones, we'll keep it simple, natural and meaningful.

Sessions are available outdoors in Northern VA, Maryland, or DC, in your home, or in studio by request (limited availability). If my work feels like the kind of memory you want to hold onto, I'd be honored to photograph this season in your life for you.

Maternity is such a tender in-between...

the process

The best time for a maternity session is around 30-37 weeks, when your belly is beautifully rounded and you're still feeling comfortable enough to move around. If you're expecting twins or have a high-risk pregnancy, earlier can be better- just reach out and we will plan what feels right for you.

Yes, absolutely! We'll capture a mix of images of you alone, you with your partner, and family connection with your children if you'd like to include them. I'll guide everyone so it feels natural and not overly posed.

After booking, you will receive a link to a Session Guide which will give you tips and ideas on what to wear and how to prepare for the session.

A maternity session is best scheduled during the 30-35 week period. For newborn sessions, I book your due date and then when the baby is born, we will schedule your session within 3 weeks.

Let's capture this amazing milestone in your life.
