Maternity Session
Scheduled in Month Seventh or Eighth
Celebrate your pregnancy with wonderful artistic photographs in our relaxed studio atmosphere. We will conduct three mini-sessions during your scheduled appointment. We begin with you and the father dressed in Casual attire. We encourage you both to wear black slacks, khakis, or jeans with solid tops. This places the focus on your faces and belly as patterns distract. This portion of the session is to get you comfortable in front of the camera, but also make great gifts for family.
From there, we continue with our "Belly Exposing". Our focus will be on your belly; the shape, both of your hands embracing the belly, your partner listening to the sounds of your baby through your belly... beautiful images showcasing your baby bump. We request that you change into comfortable easy to pull down pants (black preferred) that tuck neatly underneath your belly or button-down fly jeans look cute too. Elegant half shirts, button down shirts, one button sweaters, etc. are best for your top. Essentially, any top that can easily be pulled up or apart to show your belly. We request that your partner wear slacks/jeans of a same or similar color. If the father is fit, tan, and comfortable in his skin, shirtless is absolutely acceptable. However, if he has a beer belly, farmer’s tan, or excessive body hair… let’s keep the shirt on. Smile! If he chooses to wear a shirt, a simple black t-shirt with no logos is preferred.
Lastly, we ask that you get as nude as you feel comfortable. This can be as modest as wearing a tube top and boy shorts, strapless bra & thong underwear, or topless. The choice is yours. If you choose topless, we always cover nude breasts with hands, arms, or fabrics. We then drape you with our beautiful fabrics with the focus on showing the beauty of your pregnancy. We request that the father wear black slacks and a black shirt or shirtless is acceptable as outlined above.
Session can be 100% customized to your desires.

Newborn Session
Scheduled 7 Days to 4 Weeks
Precious Newborn images with Mom & Dad. Parents wear solid black tops and black slacks so focus remains on baby. During the first four weeks, babies are easier to place into precious poses. We encourage you to bring props, blankies, and cute hats! Bring baby full and sleepy to the session. Sleeping babies are our favorite to pose! We will create our "Baby Parts" during the session and if desired, "Birth Announcements" as well. Session can be 100% customized to your desires.
