Maternity Session

$825* ALL-INCLUSIVE lifestyle portrait Experience

Tandem package with the purchase of a Newborn Session

(returning client discount does not apply to tandem package)


Maternity sessions are photographed outdoors in beautiful natural light. These sessions are calm, intentional, and focused on connection. Pregnancy is layered and emotional, full of anticipation, tenderness, strength, and change. My approach is to document this season honestly and artfully, highlighting both the beauty of your body and the bond already forming with your baby.

• Up to one hour with the expecting mother, partner & children are welcome to join

• A minimum of 75 hand edited images in both color and black & white

• A private online gallery for viewing, downloading & sharing

• Access to my maternity client closet

Cinematic Films

When you book a session with me, you have the option to add on a 2-3 minute cinematic film with music. It's a way to encapsulate a small yet meaningful slice of time, documented in a way that will endure for generations to come.
