Eugene, Oregon maternity photographer: Sonia

As a Eugene, Oregon maternity photographer with a dedicated studio space, most of my clients come to me so they can have the full studio experience. But I’m also happy to travel to you! I’ve done several outdoor maternity sessions on the beach, in the mountains, and at various parks and recreational areas. It was really fun to do this particular maternity photography session at the client’s home.

Sonia booked this maternity session for the end of May, when the weather was starting to warm up a bit. She has an area of her yard closed off where she keeps her hot tub, and told me she uses it as a calming space and often goes there to meditate. She thought it would make a great location for her maternity photos and I totally agree!

Of course, one of the main things that makes somewhere a good candidate for a maternity photoshoot is the way it looks. I really liked the simple wood paneling that enclosed Sonia’s space. It made a great backdrop for photos with all the advantages of natural light as a bonus! We also decided to go for a bit of a tropical feel, given the sea blue of the hot tub. Adding a few brightly-colored flowers gave it that extra special touch and made it kind of similar to a milk bath.

Another reason I loved this location was that it was special to Sonia, so she felt comfortable and relaxed there. As a maternity photographer, I want the experience of each of my expecting mothers to be something they can enjoy in the moment, as well as giving them beautiful pictures to look back on in the future. There’s nowhere like your own home or backyard to help you feel calm and relaxed!

It was such a pleasure to spend time with Sonia in this beautiful space she’d created for herself! I love the way our photos turned out and am so excited for this gorgeous mama!

Are you getting ready to welcome a little one to the family? Congratulations! I know there are so many things on your mind as you prepare for baby’s arrival, but believe me, one of the most memorable is to invest in professional maternity photos. Pregnancy is such an amazing stage of your life, and maternity photography is a way to remember these days forever.

As an award-winning Eugene, Oregon maternity photographer, I’d be honored to help you record your pregnancy. I have lots of options and am happy to customize your session so it’s exactly what you want! Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I can’t wait to see you in the studio--or right in your own backyard!

Eugene and Springfield, Oregon Newborn Photographer: Welcome Bennett

Sweet little Bennett is so lucky to have such a great family.  His big brother is absolutely adorable and his parents are just so nice :)  I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them!  Bennett is an alert little guy!  He wants to be awake and look at my light and take everything in around him :)  Reminds me of my older daughter.  Enjoy!

Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Emmett!

This little guy was so precious! Sarah and Brian brought in their new cutie Emmett for newborn photos back in November. (I’m actually having a hard time believing we’re already through the first quarter of 2022! Is that just me?) He was a total sweetheart! Parents are always welcome to bring special items from home. In this case, mom and dad brought a colorful quilt that a family member had made. Even though our session took place in the fall, the quilt’s bright colors reminded me of spring! It also gave us a beautiful splash of color, since most of our photos were with all-white backgrounds. A blue beanbag and heart from my studio collection of props matched the quilt perfectly. Since this newborn photography session took place just a month before Christmas, mom and dad requested a holiday setup. This is always a fun option if your session takes place shortly before a major holiday like Christmas or Easter. It’s generally easy to work in just a single holiday-themed setup, and these k...
