Maternity

This amazing time in your life should be captured in a way that makes you feel your best.  Whether it is in the comfort of your own home, at a beautiful outdoor location or in my studio, your maternity images will be taken in a way that brings out that beautiful maternal glow.
Each location has it's own pro's and con's and can make a big impact on the final gallery.
Please take some time to consider each option, and chose the one that would suit you best.

Maternity sessions are done in the third trimester, typically between
32 - 34 weeks.


IN HOME

Pro's:
* capture your baby's nursery
* relaxed, comfortable setting that you are familiar with
* sentimental value



Cons:
* lighting plays a big role in the overall look and quality of an image.  I do not carry my entire studio set up with me, therefore adequate lighting in your home is necessary
* backdrop set up is not possible.  Your home will be the backdrop. 
* your home will need to be clean and clutter free


OUTDOOR


Pro's:
* beautiful backdrop availability
* chose from beach, gardens or woods
* bring along the family dog!




Cons:
* weather rules and so does timing.  Sessions are done in the evenings, when the sun is low and the mosquitos are out
* wardrobe changes can be a bit tricky


STUDIO

Pro's:
* best lighting available!
* comfortable environment
* maternity gowns available
* choice of backdrops and backlighting (for those soft, angelic looks)





 Con's:

* none! 
* just kidding ~ obviously my studio is not your home, and may feel a little unnatural.  All efforts are taken to ensure that you feel amazing through the whole process!


WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR MATERNITY SESSION

* something that you are comfortable in, and flatters your beautiful belly
* hubbies must coordinate with you!  No clashing patterns!
In home ~ 2 comfortable outfits
Outdoor ~ One comfortable outfit
Studio ~ one comfortable outfit and nude underwear/bra set and bando

Colours ~ I prefer light colours in studio (light neutrals)

WHAT TO BRING

* ultrasound photo
* booties
* sentimental items
* block letters

~these are merely suggestions and are not necessary~
