oh belly!

Soooo… I had an “aha” moment recently. I was chatting with a friend (photographer) and during the course of my conversation realized that I truly LOVE shooting maternity portraits. I love the curves, the lighting, the color, the posing – it’s so fun for me!

The one I’m about to show you is no exception, of course – I loved shooting this session – but I wanted to share something extra special with you. Because of this little “aha” passion of mine, I’ve decided to offer something to my future clients as a little tribute to my niche. From this point forward (until I grow tired of looking at bellies all the time), I’m going to offer a complimentary newborn session with any booked maternity session. So, book your belly, and get your baby for free. Now that’s a heck of a deal, no? Spread the word… with the amount of bellies I’m shooting now, this chica will grow tired quickly!

Okay, on to a favorite belly of mine… a military belly! A flight nurse for the airforce (hoping I got that right?) – I had so much fun with this session. Cool clothes, cool attitude, great figure, and a flight suit!

My very favorite aspect of maternity photography, and any of my photography really, is that it’s simple. I like simple lighting, simple colors – simplicity is the key in my little corner of the world…

On to the photographs!

First, we worked a bit in studio… loving the lighting on this one…
