Beautifully Waiting | Naperville Maternity Photographer

Being a Naperville maternity photographer, I get to meet women at a pivotal point in their lives. Perhaps there is no point more important than that time before people become parents. I love making these women feel beautiful and powerful. They are magic, itself. The creators of life.

So since I am so far behind in my blogging, I’m always pleasantly surprised to see what is next. Seeing the images brings back all the memories of that time. In this case, it cracks me up because things have changed so much for this beautiful lady since this time. Back then, this was my first time meeting her, and now two years later, we do a lot of collaborating together for her newest venture – Main & Luxe Magazine.

This first image is probably my very favorite one. I think it is just absolutely stunning.

While that was classic and simple (though very elegant), we also wanted to do something with some drama, as well.

Some maternity sessions are just the woman while other sessions include the spouse. It is totally up to my client. For this one, her husband was at work while we played.

With all the darkness, we did also do some lighter images after she changed outfits.

This woman has a strong sense of humor. So while we already made her feel beautiful, she also wanted something funny. I have done similar images before. I told her to bring all her favorite pregnancy snack foods. Gotta love a bit of indulging. While she didn’t really crave pickles and peanut butter, we had to use that.
