Maternity sessions are all about the joyful anticipation of your little one's arrival. My approach is mama centered and lifestyle. No stiff poses, no forced smiles. Just real moments, gently guided focusing on the bonds of your family anticipating its newest member.
A quiet, intimate approach to documenting your family in the space you know best. The place where your family will grow and make everyday memories becomes the backdrop for your images. These sessions unfold slowly and naturally, capturing the beauty in your everyday. We will work with the natural light in your living room, kitchen, master bedroom or nursery.
Outdoor golden hour sessions are relaxed, sun soaked evenings filled with movement, connection and beautiful natural light. As the sun begins to set, it wraps your family in a soft, golden glow that feels warm and effortless.
Yes! Partner and sibling shots are included in every package. You are all welcoming the newest member of your family.
Complete the contact form to get started. You will receive my full investment guide upon inquiry, which outlines the session styles in more detail. From there, we will plan your session together by talking about this special time, how you want to remember it and the moments you want to preserve. We'll pick a setting that feels most natural to you. Your session includes a fully edited digital gallery, thoughtfully curated so you can return to this time and experience it again as it truly felt. To reserve your session, a signed contract, selected date, and a $250 non-refundable retainer are required.
Sessions ideally take place between 26-34 weeks as your bump has started bumping and you're likely still comfortable enough to move around. This doesn't mean that if you're approaching your due date you can't do a maternity session. Send over an inquiry and we'll see if we can fit you on the calendar before your due date.
Yes, I offer bundling pricing when both sessions are booked together. I'm so honored you want me to document two special milestones for you.
The best time to book your newborn session is early in your second trimester as sessions take place between 26-34 weeks pregnant.
Maternity sessions take place outdoors during golden hour or in-home. Outdoor sessions can take place at a local park, preserve or beach location. For in-home sessions we’ll utilize the spaces with the most natural light, whether it's the main living space, master bedroom or nursery. If you are drawn to something more personal or unique, ask about storytelling sessions where we can always create a session that reflects your experience in a more customized way.
Erica is an amazing photographer! We are so happy with the family/maternity photoshoot we did with her. She suggested some outfits and colors to match ahead of the photoshoot so we get the best color fit, she was very good with making it fun and easy with the kids and most importantly captured some precious moments of our family where we look natural and happy.
