Maternity

You’re Having a Baby!

Maybe this is your first baby, and you are filled to the brim with expectation, excitement, and probably some nerves.

Maybe this is your second (or third, or fourth!) and you don’t have any pictures of yourself pregnant.

Either way, this season deserves to be celebrated and documented. You’re creating a whole new tiny human!

The anticipation of your family changing, of your first baby becoming a big sibling, your “furbabies” adding a human to their crew. I’m here for all of it.

Both of my children are here thanks to IVF. That’s why you may see a pineapple tattoo on my arm during our session. Whether or not you struggled getting to this point, pregnancy really is magic and it is my honor to get to document it.

32-34 Weeks | $950

I recommend taking maternity photos around 32-34 weeks pregnant. This way, you’ve got a bump going, but aren’t feeling completely like a whale yet… (or getting too close to an early labor).

I love to embrace the seasons with maternity sessions, leaning into what nature is doing during this chapter of your growing family!

It is also my greatest joy to get to take both maternity and newborn photos for families. I offer a “baby bundle” discount just for that!

“To have [Meredith] be a part of our pregnancy and baby journey is something so special. She captured such beautiful and natural photos that needless to say, she is now forever stuck with us as our photographer for yearly family photos! She is so kind, personable, patient, and flexible and not to mention an AMAZING photographer!”
