Mia called at the last minute after moving to Atlanta from Memphis to inquire about maternity, birth, and newborn sessions. I happened to have availability in my calendar for birth due to early deliveries, so invited Mia to come to the studio for a complimentary consultation to discuss her planned Atlanta Birth Center birth. After chatting for a while, she decided she wanted to go ahead with booking all three so we conducted her maternity fitting right then and there in the studio before she left. She chose two gorgeous gowns, and we discussed what her son and partner should wear from their own closets.
The day of her session was so much fun. She opted for a Cleopatra inspired look and looked absolutely stunning when she arrived. She changed into her first gown, and we started the session. Her little boy was just the sweetest with big brown eyes, and just loved his mama. Lots of moms worry about whether their child will cooperate during sessions. With our approach, we let the child lead and have you make suggestions to them that lead to natural interaction. Forcing a child to do anything they don't want to never works. If you're patient and laid back about things, I'll be hanging out quietly and waiting for those little in between moments that you didn't even realize happened. We will always schedule sessions that involve little ones to be at a time when they're well rested and fed for the most optimal results!
Here are just a few images from Mia's studio maternity session in black and white. She received both color and black and white versions of the images with the collection she chose, but I'm so in love with the black and white versions that I'm choosing to just share those for this post.
If you're expecting a baby or already a parent and looking for a newborn, maternity, or family photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Watch this video to hear about my philosophy and see how I work in the studio so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!
