MATERNITY SESSIONS
Pregnancy is a fantastic time in our lives. No, sometimes it doesn't feel so fantastic, but as a Momma of three, I can say that there is just something so very special about the life inside of us and the anticipation of the crazy, messy love you're about to feel for another little human.
It's just ridiculously good that we are carriers of unique little lives
and I just adore capturing it.
WHEN SHOULD MY SESSION TAKE PLACE?
Everyone is different in terms of size but 25-30 weeks is a good place to be. You definitely want to be showing, but you don't want to wait so long that you are at the most uncomfortable stage, either.
WHERE SHOULD MY SESSION TAKE PLACE?
For half-sessions, I will shoot off Transmountain Road for the mountains at sunset. This is a gorgeous spot for a half-session at sunset.
Address: 4315 Woodrow Bean Transmountain Rd, El Paso, TX 79924
Or, for more of a green look, I will do half-sessions at Memorial Park.
Address: 3200 Copper Ave, El Paso, TX 79930
If you're wanting a more URBAN look for your maternity session, downtown is always a fun spot, too.
For Momma Only sessions, consider a maternity boudoir session at the STUDIO near Montwood High School.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Because all sessions are different and take place in different locations, I offer my PINTEREST board with ideas on what works well.
Other tips:
-
Have nails done for close-up shots.
-
Don't focus too much on props. Although, if you want a couple of props, make it meaningful.
-
Don't stress too much about it. Maternity sessions are the simplest of all the photoshoots. We must always get your bump in the shot and there's only so much a pregnant Momma can do. So just come ready and relaxed.
