One of the sessions I said I would never offer, but now I am totally in love with and cannot imagine not shooting, was maternity.

Until I moved into my studio space, I wasn’t finding inspiration that really spoke to me. But when I saw the windows, the light and the possibilities, I knew I had to made the decision. I had to do it.

With me already offering newborn sessions, maternity was a natural partner for client’s sessions. Since then, so many families have booked both sessions and that makes me so thrilled for them! I love when parents and mamas to be want to be in the frame. So do it! Your kids will thank you later in life 🙂

Emily was expecting her first little girl and wanted a solo maternity session at the studio. And isn’t she just the most gorgeous, natural beauty ever?! She brought all of her looks with her that complimented her bump so beautifully. As we got to know each other we discovered that we knew people in common and that she grew up in the town next to my in-laws/husbands home town in Ohio. This session is one of my favorites, hands down. Fresh 48 and studio newborn were also in the plans for them when little girl made her arrival so I will share those in a future post! – Molly
