BIRTH

AND BUMPS, AND BABIES

That feeling when your life is changing every single day.

Few things jolt us out of our persistent obsession with the here and now than the primal experience of childbirth. From maternity sessions to live birth coverage to newborn portraits, it's so important to document and remember the stages and moments of the important life transition of bringing a baby into your family.

MATERNITY PHOTOS
I'm sure you're already snapping photos on the daily, documenting the slow and steady changes. For a portrait session with me, I recommend late second trimester or early third. At that point, you're definitely showing, but not uncomfortably so.

BIRTH PHOTOS
Didn't know birth photography was a thing? It totally is and it's totally incredible. You won't remember every moment of giving birth (I get it, you're kind of preoccupied) but with birth photography, you don't even have to try, because these moments are yours to keep forever.

NEWBORN PHOTOS
The ideal time for newborn portraits is 6-10 days, while they're still all sleepy and snuggly. That said, baby photos are fun at any age! I categorize baby portraits as birth to two years, and Mom, Dad, siblings, even pets are always encouraged to jump into the shoot (so really it's more like a family session, but with a very tiny VIP).

It started as a maternity session and turned into a proposal

Blair and Kristina were on a babymoon vacation to celebrate the coming arrival of their little bundle of joy. Together, they planned to have a photoshoot at the beach. What Kristina didn't know was that Blair also planned to propose.
