Oh, do I have a treat for you today! You know how much I love pulling back the curtain and giving you a sneak peek into the magic that happens during a session, right? This behind-the-scenes video is an absolute gem from a session of studio maternity portraits at my Edmonton studio.
First off, can we talk about the glowing mom-to-be? Seriously, she’s a radiant beacon of joy, and her excitement was contagious! As a photographer, creating images of these beautiful moments of anticipation is one of my favourite things. I love the soft, dreamy natural light that wraps around her like a warm embrace. And that pregnancy glow? No fancy lighting tricks needed – it was all natural and stunning!
I always offer direction in posing so that the mom feels comfortable and confident throughout the session. Trust me; it makes all the difference in capturing those candid, heartwarming moments!
What I love most about studio maternity sessions is the freedom to explore different ideas and create art that celebrates this special time in a woman’s life. It’s a chance to tell a unique story, one that will be cherished by mama and her baby as he grows. There were moments of quiet reflection and others filled with laughter and joy. Every frame beautifully encapsulated the emotions of this incredible journey.
