Lifestyle Maternity Session: April + Soul

January 7, 2021

I can't even believe it's already been over a year since we took these lifestyle maternity photos with Lelania! For me, photos to document life moments are everything. I mean, I would suspect most photographers feel this way!? But seriously, upon looking at these again, once my baby is here walking and laughing, I almost cry with delight and love. I cherish the memory of feeling him grow inside my body and especially appreciate the excitement, the anticipation and the fear of becoming a mother.

I am not a religious person, but having a child has made me so much more spiritual. The gift of a child makes my head explode if I think about it too much. A woman's body creates organs, and feet and a tiny beating heart all in less than a year!!!! WOW. Life is a miracle.

For those of you on the fence about capturing this gift, for whatever your reason; I urge you to go for it! Whether you post them, or keep them for yourself, they are a treasure. They surely make me nostalgic and slightly sick thinking about being pregnant again! hahaha. (my pregnancy wasn't that easy).

Seriously though, not all pregnancy sessions need to be weird. I have seen my fair share of bizarre photo-shoots that will make you run and never turn back! Lifestyle sessions are a great way to capture the true essence of you and your couple in your element. I love getting to know my couple's and learning about what makes them tick! Documenting your unique lifestyle while in your home, a hotel or airbnb is a great approach to getting candid and natural photos.

Sometimes a session is as much about the journey as it is about the subject.
