Our Maternity Photos

When you’re a maternity photographer for a living, you absolutely have to document your own pregnancy with lots and lots of maternity photos, right?? I’m a huge advocate of getting professional photos taken to document every stage of life and every phase in the lives of your family. As Mark and I begin our journey as parents, I of course wanted lots of photos to document our journey.

We’ve taken some of our maternity photos ourselves with a tripod, which is how we take most of our photos. But while we were in Pensilvania for a friend’s wedding, we decided to do a maternity photo swap with Mark’s sister, who is due just 6 days before us. You can check out her maternity photos here. So after I took photos of her and her husband, I handed the camera to her to take some photos of Mark and I that I could edit as well! A huge thank you to Hannah for taking these for us! Mark and I absolutely love them!

We had an airbnb for this wedding right in the middle of the mountains, so we took these right in the front yard of the house we were taking in. Although I always love a good mountain view, the photos we took in the woods on the side of the house actually ended up being my favorite photos! I always love photos with a nice green background and the sun shining through the trees is one of the most beautiful views in my opinion.

I hope you enjoy seeing some of my own maternity photos!
