Thinking about planning a professional maternity session? Many would agree, there is no other time in a woman’s life when she is more beautiful than when she is expecting. The joy of soon-to-be motherhood is visible through the glow she carries and the joy that radiates. That sweet little life inside will soon make his or her debut and the chance to capture this glorious moment of pregnancy to treasure for all time is indeed short-lived. Professional maternity photos are a great way to capture the joy and anticipation of this new chapter of your and your partner’s lives that are about to open!
However, pregnancy, especially during the last trimester, can also be a time when she feels the most uncomfortable and less likely to want to fix herself up for maternity pictures. As a professional maternity photographer, we completely understand and try to make the occasion as relaxed and comfortable as possible to capture the best “mom-to-be” version of yourself.
Time flies and moments you wish you had captured in photos pass in a blur. We often end up forgetting more than we remember. Whether this is your 1st child or your 3rd, your pregnancy is a wonderful time to capture photos with not just you and your partner, but your other children as well. If you take time to do photo sessions on a regular basis, you can chart the growth of your beautiful family over the years—something your future self and your children will definitely be thankful for. Don’t look back on this moment with regret that you did not capture your pregnancy through photos.
In a time when the gender reveal has become a celebratory moment and gathering event, professional maternity photos can be a fun way to announce your baby’s gender. You can use your images to announce either the sex or the name of your bundle of joy—or even both! There are so many creative ways to announce your little one’s name or sex to the world with photos. I-Candee Photography will be more than happy to help you create a one-a-kind gender or name announcement. After all, nothing makes a classic statement quite like timeless photography!
Many expectant couples, and families, take this moment to capture the event with their growing family. You may opt to have your partner and children attend the photo session and be included in the photographs. This will give siblings a chance to feel involved in the new arrival of a baby brother or sister, along with helping to strengthen the family bond. One of the most amazing aspects of maternity photos is the interactions between couples and children as they celebrate the new addition soon to come. Your maternity photoshoot gives you and your partner a chance to reflect on the life you’ve built together. Maternity photos are also a great way to mark a major shift in the life of your family.
After months of likely being cooped up, especially during these Covid times, it is refreshing for expectant Mothers to get dressed up! Although the physical change that takes place during this phase of your life is something you may not enjoy, especially in the last few months. We know it can be a challenge watching your body change so much, and your waistline expand. Without photos to mark this occasion, it will be easy to forget just how miraculous pregnancy really is. A maternity photo session allows you to focus on the new life your body is working so hard to create and reminds you of the excitement and joy you felt bringing your child into the world.
