When it comes to capturing your pregnancy journey through photos, timing truly is important! As a Nashville maternity photographer, a question I get asked often is when to book maternity photos? I love capturing mamas when they are between 28-32 weeks pregnant.

Whether you’re expecting your first child or your fourth, it is important to capture the beauty of each pregnancy. The photos allow you to reflect on the mother you are becoming and not the mother you have been — something we as mamas of multiples don’t get to do often.

As a Nashville photographer, I absolutely love the opportunity to travel for sessions. Whether it’s for a retreat or being hired to capture special moments, creating imagery in a location that is outside of my norm truly fills my creative cup. This session was no exception.

When planning a family photo session, much of the focus often goes to what mamas and children should wear. But what should dads wear for photos? This blog post will be all about what to wear for photos: dad edition.

Here's what nobody tells you about this season — you're going to forget it. Not because you're not paying attention, but because you're too busy living it. The specific way your kid laughs right now, the exact weight of them in your arms, the beautiful chaos of a regular afternoon at your house — it slips away quietly, without warning, and one day you'll reach for the memory and find it's already blurry at the edges. That's why this matters. Not the perfectly posed photo, the real one. The one that actually looks like your family, your kids, your life, right now. Come as you are. This season is already enough.

Ready To Remember This Season, Mama?

Your Real Life Is Already Worth CAPTURING

I'M READY!
