I can’t tell you how much I love doing maternity photography. Each session is different, and the dynamic of every family is different (especially when there are siblings involves). However, hands down, this is my favorite type of session. I’m also amazed when you have a momma to be eager to climb trees (and I mean, REALLY climb trees), and hang out 4 feet overhead, just to get a shot. Fearless, I tell you! This is going to be one lucky kid: smart, adventurous, beautiful parents with a good sense of humor? Yes, please! Enjoy your sneak peak guys! It was so hard narrowing down which images to post here.

I have had a vision in my head for an image I wanted to create for a year now. I tried last August with a very cooperative client & friend, but alas the weather did NOT cooperate with me that day. So I had to wait. Wait for a day I was available, a day I had a willing and pregnant model, and a day when the skies would show me their true blues. Well that day finally happened! I asked one of my colleagues to assist me with this image and she was incredibly sweet to consent. It couldn’t be more perfect. It’s as if everything was holding out for me JUST so that I can take this picture[…]See more from “Perfection: Belmont Maternity Photographer”

Before setting up a session with any new client, I like to have a conversation over the phone. It’s a great way for me to hear what’s important to them, and how they hope to capture this moment in time. S and A are friends, and we share a love for jumping out of planes, but despite that it was great to have that conversation, because amongst everything else they told me, one word stood out: Fun! So fun we had. I gotta tell you, these guys live in an amazing place! I loved walking around with them with so many cool locations to choose from. From the lush trees, to the awesome wall colors: and there are places I[…]See more from “Santa Clara Maternity Photographer: Fun”

San Mateo, CA Maternity Photographer: It’s hard to choose

Sometimes it is really, really hard for me to pick my favorite images from a session. And I really do try to restrict myself. Today is one of those days. These guys were so wonderful to work with, and I’m really excited for their newborn session in a few months. While I was working w/ Y, dad-to-be R was taking some video. If I can get a hold of it, maybe I’ll do a “behind the scenes” look for you guys… provided I like how I appear on camera 🙂

I love tracking the sun as it rises in the sky in the mornings. Many photographers prefer the afternoon, but mornings are my favorite time of day. The air is cool, crisp… full of newness (yes this is a real word, I even looked it up). In general my < 3ft-tall clients are still wearing their better personalities… while the big people find happiness in a cup of coffee 🙂 No exception, doing this session with C and J was a lot of fun for me. The sun was climbing through the tall redwood trees. The location was serene and (mostly) empty, and I had two about-to-be parents with a sense of humor and willingness to try anything. Heaven!By the[…]See more from “San Mateo, CA Maternity Photographer: Ray of Light”
