The luxe maternity closet
As a lover of fashion, I believe maternity is a time to embrace elegance, confidence, and bold beauty. When I think of maternity, I think of stunning, flowing gowns that make every mother feel like a goddess. That’s why I have carefully curated The Luxe Maternity Closet—featuring hand-selected pieces, including designs from the renowned maternity gown designer KH Fashion. Each dress is chosen to complement your unique style, ensuring you feel radiant and empowered during your session.
Awilda’s Legacy
The Motherhood Experience is about more than just photography—it’s about capturing the love, strength, and beauty of every mother’s journey. My very first maternity client, Awilda, never had the chance to see her images due to unforeseen complications. Her story has stayed with me, shaping the way I approach every session with deep gratitude and intention.
In her memory, I ensure that every mother-to-be receives a preview of some beautifully edited images within 7 days of their session. It is my way of honoring her and making sure that every mother gets to see herself in this radiant, powerful moment of her journey.
FAQs
-
The ideal time for a maternity session is between 28–34 weeks (7–8 months). This ensures a beautifully rounded belly while keeping you comfortable.
-
Absolutely! Including your partner and children makes the session even more special. However, as this is a maternity-focused photoshoot, the majority of the images will feature the mother-to-be. We will, of course, capture some beautiful moments with your loved ones while keeping the focus on celebrating your pregnancy. For the best results, we ask that partners and children be dressed in formal attire and stick to neutral tones. No jeans and t-shirts are allowed unless previously discussed.
-
While we don’t provide in-house hair and makeup for all sessions, our Luxe Legacy Experience is our only all-inclusive package, which includes professional hair and makeup styling. This ensures the mom-to-be doesn’t have to worry about anything— just show up and enjoy a seamless, one-stop experience. For other packages, we can recommend trusted makeup artists upon request.
-
You can book your maternity session directly on our website. We allow bookings up to 2.5 months in advance and offer multiple payment options.
