a modern studio Maternity session
Lynchburg Maternity Photographer
Over the past few years, more of my clients have chosen to have their maternity photos taken in my studio in Forest, Virginia, versus at a nearby location in the Lynchburg, Virginia area. This is a different trend I’ve experienced over the last decade and I am loving it! I have really enjoyed bringing each client’s different visions to life whether they are wearing a unique dress, or bringing saved inspo photos on their phone, or coming with a brand new concept. It’s been a great experience to combine their vision with the things I love most about making portraits: soft light, intentional composition, and creating space for connecting portraits.
One of my favorite things about studio maternity sessions is the variety we can create in one space. Between the bed, settee, and the blank wall, we can start with a simple portrait highlighting your baby bump, then bring your family members into the frame for a few photos together. It is a special time of connection and celebration as I guide you through what to do with your hands and where to focus your attention, which allows you to settle in and enjoy having this time set aside to celebrate your new baby.
Below are a few of my favorite studio maternity portraits from the past few years, shared with permission from the families you’ll see here.
