Maternity

Outdoor or studio maternity sessions planned around your comfort.

Maternity sessions should feel peaceful, not performative. I plan around how you're actually feeling that week: comfortable locations, relaxed pacing, and as many breaks as you need. Partner and sibling shots are always included at no extra cost.

I can help with wardrobe ideas, sourcing flowy dresses, and scouting locations with shade and easy access. The goal is photos that look like a quiet love letter to the three, four, or five of you.

The tiers below range from a gentle portrait session to a full styled experience — choose whichever matches how much of the story you want told.

Planning ahead? Bundle your maternity session with a Newborn & First Year package for a discounted rate. Throwing a baby shower or gender reveal too? Those live on the Family Celebrations page.

Frequently asked

How much does a maternity photo session cost in Northern Virginia?
Maternity sessions range from $350 for a 45-minute Essentials session to $725 for the Premium package, which includes both studio and outdoor locations, unlimited outfit changes, and a full styling consult. The most popular option is the Signature at $525 for 90 minutes.
When should I schedule my maternity session?
Most moms book between 28 and 34 weeks, but there's no strict rule — we'll plan around how you're feeling. I keep the pacing relaxed with plenty of breaks, and I'm happy to reschedule if the timing shifts.
Can my partner and kids be in the maternity photos?
Absolutely — partner and sibling shots are always included at no extra charge, no matter which package you choose. The more the merrier.
Do you help with outfits and wardrobe for maternity sessions?
Yes! The Premium and Signature packages include wardrobe guidance, and I can help source flowy dresses and suggest colors that photograph beautifully. I'll also scout locations with shade and easy access so you're comfortable the whole time.
Can I bundle maternity and newborn sessions together?
You can — and you'll get a discounted rate when you do. A lot of families book maternity plus the First Year Bundle so the whole arc from bump to first birthday is captured in one cohesive style.
