Maternity Photographer Los Angeles
Hi mama!
You're pregnant, OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!
Pregnancy is such a special season of life. I am a firm believer that this is something that should be captured. You are on the journey to meet one of the loves of your life, and believe me – you WILL regret it if you don’t create memories of it! (I’m speaking from personal experience here..)
If you love natural and emotional maternity photos, then we are going to make a great team! I am OBSESSED with fun sessions. I am here to chase the sunset with you. We will walk, we will sway, and we will dance together. However, we will NOT be doing any fake smiles. Those are not allowed during my sessions!
So if you’re ready to take that bump out for a swing, just let me know!

NO awkward posing
My most important goal with every Maternity session is that you have FUN and feel comfortable every step of the way. I guide you through the entire session and you will know exactly what to do all the time. In comparison to what most people think, there will be absolutely no looking in the camera with a stiff smile during my sessions. You will sway from side to side, close your eyes and take a deep breath, walk hand in hand with your partner and perhaps spin around in a circle. But you will NOT be asked to put on a fake smile and stare at me.
Magical Locations
Finding the perfect location for your photoshoot is something I believe is key to getting those magical images. I put a lot of time and effort into finding locations that works well for maternity photos and I always scout to know what time the lighting works for every location. This gives your photographs that little extra!
Beautiful Styling
To get the absolute most out of your Maternity session, I always help you styling it. Whether you choose to use one of the dresses from my client wardrobe or if you decide to use clothes of your own, I will work closely with you to help you create the perfect look for your photoshoot.

FAQ
What happens if it rains?
It is very important to me that we get the photos that you want, so if it rains or the weather is preventing the photoshoot to happen, I will reschedule for a new date. You will get a new date within the next 14 days. I keep the schedule fairly open for this to always be possible.
What should I wear?
I have a limited selection of beautiful maternity dresses that you are free to use during your session. I also have a great styling tool to help you with your outfits for the session. This styling tool is great if you want to wear something of your own, and to cordinate outfits with your partner!
How long before my due date should I book my session?
I recommend that we do the photoshoot when you are around 30-35 weeks pregnant so that the belly is round, but haven’t dropped yet. Therefore the best time to contact me is around 25 weeks or earlier if possible to find a date that will work for the both of us.
