MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHY

Before you held them, you carried them.

Timeless maternity photography celebrating the anticipation, connection, and beauty of the season before everything changes.

THE SEASON BEFORE

There is so much worth remembering before they arrive.

Pregnancy can feel both endless and impossibly fleeting. Somewhere between preparing for their arrival and imagining who they'll become, your body is already telling the beginning of their story.

Your maternity session is a chance to slow down and preserve this version of you, the anticipation, the connection, and the quiet moments before your family changes forever.

You deserve to be in these memories, too.

THE EXPERIENCE

Relaxed. Guided. Completely you.

01

Thoughtfully Planned

From choosing a location to deciding what to wear, I'll help you plan a session that feels cohesive, effortless, and true to you.

02

Gently Guided

You don't need to know how to pose. I'll guide you through natural movement and flattering direction while leaving space for genuine connection.

03

Focused on Connection

Your session isn't about creating perfect poses. It's about documenting the anticipation, excitement, and love surrounding this season of your life.

YOUR STORY, TOGETHER

This season belongs to all of you.

Your maternity session can focus entirely on you or include your partner and children. We'll create a mix of photographs that celebrate motherhood while also preserving the connection and excitement your family shares as you wait for your newest little one.

LOCATION

Choose a setting that feels like you.

From Lake Michigan sunsets to quiet studio portraits, we'll choose a location that complements the feeling you want your photographs to have.

At the Water

Soft movement, open skies, dunes, beach grass, and beautiful evening light.

Best near sunset.

Surrounded by Nature

Fields, trails, trees, gardens, and natural spaces create a relaxed, organic backdrop.

Simple + Intimate

A quiet, minimal setting that keeps the focus entirely on you and your growing family.

BOOKING YOUR MATERNITY SESSION

The sweet spot is 28–34 weeks.

Most mamas feel their best (and their bump is beautifully round) between 28 and 34 weeks. I recommend reaching out during your second trimester so we can plan around the season, the light, and how you're feeling.

If you book a Bump to Baby bundle, we'll reserve your due date for your newborn session at the same time.

For outdoor sessions

Golden hour, about an hour before sunset.

For studio sessions

Tuesday–Thursday, 10am–2pm in Coopersville.

CONTINUE THE STORY

From waiting for them to watching them grow.

Your maternity photos can be the very first chapter. Newborn, milestone, and family sessions let us keep telling the story as your little one grows.

Your Questions, Answered

This season goes by so fast.

Let's remember the waiting, the wondering, and the love that's already here.
