Magical Pacific Northwest Maternity Session-Tips to a Magical Maternity Session
Maybe it’s true, carrying a baby is like carrying a tiny universe inside you—one that grows, changes, and becomes more real with each passing day. It’s a transformation that isn’t just physical but also emotional and even spiritual. Experiencing creation in its purest form will forever fascinate me. I’ve heard of the emotional magic. The way your heart expands with a love so deep it’s almost overwhelming. The way your instincts sharpen, preparing you for the moment you’ll finally hold this little being in your arms. As a women without children I am in AWE of you.
I had so much fun on this beach and forest maternity shoot. She wanted a boho forest vibe. We danced and laughed a lot, and the winter weather was beyond perfect.
My style is more than just looking at the camera and smiling, I help guide you through the shoot the entire time. Some people just move naturally like this mamma to be.
Stick to light and earthy tones in the forest. For dresses, I love Joyfolie - you have to get creative and order a non maternity dress that will work, they don’t have a maternity section. You can also rent some pretty cool maternity dresses on Etsy. I made a list of cool dresses HERE ON ETSY I also made a list of suggestions HERE ON AMAZON
IF you want to show your bare belly, grab a skirt and a bralette. Or you can just cover the top of you:) Also just bra and panties works great.
Maternity Sessions are $950
They include 70-100 edited images. My turn around time is 5-8 weeks. You get sneak peaks from the shoot the day after our session(usually) When I am finished - you will receive a full gallery where you can download high and low resolution images, print and make books, watch your slideshow and video.
I pose and guide you the entire shoot, and make it fun and easy.
To hold your date I take a $200 deposit. The rest is due the day of the session. You can pay your deposit here VIA VENMO or I can send an invoice.
I can help style you - send me ideas and we can choose the best colors that will match nature. Notice how the colors in this blog really work.
HERE are some of my favorites on Etsy - great for ideas!
