THE BENEFITS OF STUDIO MATERNITY SESSIONS OVER OUTDOOR SESSIONS

There is nothing quite like the beauty, form, and connection that is captured in a maternity photo. I love creating art for my clients and maternity sessions are no different. I want your images to reflect your uniqueness and the beautiful connection you share with your baby. As a fine art photographer, I love to offer my clients several different types of maternity sessions as well as some options for gowns and how the images are styled. Today I want to share some of the benefits of in studio maternity sessions.

Studio maternity sessions have limitless possibilities for being creative. Not just in the backgrounds we use but in the way we use the light to create different looks. The above image uses a lighting technique called short lighting. This type of light is one of my favorites for maternity as it creates shadows in all the right places and is extremely flattering.

Backlighting is also beautiful. I love the way the light wraps around the subject. This is beautiful especially when I am photographing the relationships in your family.

I typically use this type of lighting with lighter colored gowns. I have a limited amount of maternity gowns and silk like drapes for clients to choose from.
