Maternity sessions are in full swing here at the studio! And while I feel like I am earning the rep for being an ‘urban maternity’ shooting kind of gal, we decided to change it up a bit and shoot only at the studio for Christy’s session. Well, that and the fact that it was way too chilly out to go parading around all exposed and stuff.

Maternity sessions for me are starting to really become my ‘thing’ –  in addition to weddings. My husband and I were talking about this today- about how to really make your mark on the world- and it got me thinking…. and I realized that making people feel beautiful is what I love to do. It applies to EVERY type of shoot I do, whether it’s weddings, or maternity or boudoir… and I came to the conclusion that these three types of shoots are exactly what that is about!

Feeling beautiful.

I walk around with a pair of extreme home makeover glasses on my eyes- meaning- just give me 10 minutes alone with you and my camera and I will show you what I see…. a beautiful person that’s either already there in full view or someone just lurking below the surface… Maybe it’s someone who never really saw themselves in that way before…maybe they have always wanted to be made to feel beautiful or sexy, but thought that no one could see that about them.

It’s like in the Wizard of Oz…when the house lands and Dorothy opens the door… and the world is in color…. I see you all in color!

OK, enough lovey dovey-ness! Without further delay…. this is what I came back with… after the house landed!

 

…she fit so nicely on my new couch, and so I went with it!!

my new favorite spot to photograph- the light here is all natural and simply radiant! Having a perfect pregnant lady here certainly doesn’t hurt either!
