ready to tell your story?
Maybe your road to pregnancy was a long one, maybe it took you by surprise, or maybe it was filled with seemingly endless medical appointments (hi, it's me!). Either way, you deserve beautiful portraits of this fleeting time.
As your NJ maternity photographer, I promise to show you how beautiful you are, no matter how not-beautiful you may feel. And just think - one day, in the not so distant future, your sweet baby is going to love looking back at photos of when they were "in mommy's belly".

A signed contract, brief questionnaire, and deposit are required to hold your spot on my calendar. For maternity sessions, I recommend scheduling your session between 27 and 34 weeks of pregnancy.

THE NEXT STEP
I'll be in touch before our session to confirm that we're going ahead as scheduled. I leave extra room in my schedule to allow for rescheduling due to rain, wind, snow, or heavily overcast days. Please arrive to your session a few minutes early - this leaves plenty of time to find parking, change diapers, and adjust everyone's outfits before we start!
Session Day!

A:
do maternity sessions include partners and older siblings?
q:
Maternity sessions take place outdoors or in the comfort of your own home. For outdoor sessions, we will start approximately 1.5 hours prior to sunset, or within the hour of sunrise, to make sure that you are photographed in the best light. For in-home sessions, I recommend starting at 9:30 or 10:00 a.m., but this may change depending on the natural light in your home.
A:
when and where will my session take place?
q:
Maternity sessions typically take place between 27 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. Reach out as soon as you are comfortable, and we can get your date on the calendar!
A:
How far in advance should we book?
q:
Long, flowy dresses work really well for moms-to-be! Dresses are flattering, comfortable, and photograph beautifully. Look for clothing in lighter, neutral colors (cream, greys, camel, muted blues, greens and blush) as they photograph better than darker, bolder colors. Upon booking, I provide a portrait planning guide and Pinterest boards to help with wardrobe inspiration!
