As a professional maternity photographer, I’ve had the honor of capturing some of the most beautiful moments between expecting couples. There’s something truly magical about witnessing a couple transition into parenthood for the first time.

During my recent maternity session with this lovely couple, we used lighting that was both cinematic and bold, but also flattering to bring out the best in them. Our posing was very intentional, creating poses that showcased their connection and love while also highlighting the beautiful new body of our client with her baby bump.

But selecting the right type of art to showcase these images is just as important as taking them. That’s why I work with my clients to select the perfect piece of wall art or album to display their images. For example, beautiful archival quality canvas or high-end acrylics that will stand the test of time and be just as stunning 40 years from now as they are today.

Not only do these images serve as a beautiful reminder of this special time, but they can also serve as a powerful reminder of the strength and connection between you and your partner. As you navigate the ups and downs of parenthood, these images can be a source of comfort and inspiration. In fact, a recent Psychology Today article talks about how scanning old family photos can remind you that you’re loved. It’s important to hold onto these memories and pass them down to future generations.

Working with a professional maternity photographer has many benefits. We have the experience and knowledge to create beautiful and timeless images, and we know how to pose and light our subjects in a way that is both flattering and authentic. We also work with our clients to choose the perfect location and wardrobe to bring their vision to life.

If you’re interested in capturing these special moments with your partner, I invite you to book a maternity session today. Together, we can create images that will be cherished for generations to come.
