THE SEASON THAT GOES FAST

You are only Pregnant with them once


While you're still in it.

maternity: the state of being a mother

This season is a lot. The excitement, the exhaustion, the wonder and the very real “okay, I’m ready to meet this baby now.”


You’re building your family. That deserves to be remembered.


As a Phoenix maternity photographer, I’ve been documenting this season since before I was a mother myself. I know the waiting, the wonder, and everything in between.

Told the way you actually lived it.



Your Journey, Documented Honestly


Every pregnancy is different. Your photos should be, too.


Maybe this baby took years to get here. Maybe they surprised you. Maybe they’re your last. Maybe you’re finally doing this for yourself.


Whatever brought you here, this season deserves to be remembered.


Your changing body. The anticipation. The tiny person you already love so much.


That’s what I want to capture.

A MOM DOCUMENTING MOMS


Hey Welcome!


I photographed weddings for years. Then I became a mom, and everything shifted.


Now I’m a Phoenix maternity photographer serving Glendale, documenting the moments that feel ordinary now but become everything later.


I know how fast it goes because I’m living it, too.

"Her craft is absolutely amazing, and you can truly tell how much passion she has for what she does. She always takes her time, makes us feel comfortable, and never rushes the process. The quality of her work speaks for itself, and we always walk away impressed and grateful.


We admire the work she does and are beyond thankful to have found a photographer who feels more like part of the family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, meaningful photos that you’ll treasure forever."

When to Book Your Maternity Session


28 to 34 weeks is the sweet spot. Carrying multiples? Aim for 24 to 28 weeks. Already past 34? Reach out anyway, I’ve photographed beautiful sessions later, too. ACOG's overview of pregnancy changes is a solid resource for planning around where you are.


Book at the start of your second trimester. Sessions are limited, and the best dates tend to go quickly by 30 weeks.


October through April: outdoor sessions.

May through September: studio or in-home.

Outdoor sessions take place about an hour before sunset year-round.

Editorial

 

 

From $ 675 + tax

 

For the mom who wants one image dramatic enough to stop her in her tracks.


Studio maternity photography in Phoenix, with intentional light and a more editorial feel.


Bold silhouettes and shaped light create images that feel dramatic, artistic, and completely intentional. Every image is carefully finished and hand-retouched.


Prefer something softer and more candid? Natural light may be your fit.

If you want to look back and feel the day, book natural light.


If you’re drawn to bold silhouettes, dramatic light, and a little more drama, book editorial.


Still stuck? Just ask me.

What to Wear for

Maternity Photos

I don’t keep a gown closet, and that’s intentional. The photos you’ll still love ten years from now are the ones where you feel like yourself.


We’ll start with what makes you feel confident and what feels true to this season. Then we’ll build from there.


Need ideas? I’ll help you finalize it before your session.

FAQ

Can my partner and kids come?

Yes, and I would encourage it. Tell me ahead of time and we will plan around their attention span.

Do you shoot in a studio?

Yes. Editorial sessions are studio sessions with the studio fee already included, and natural light sessions are priced separately since they're built for outdoor, in-home, or window light instead. Between May and September, studio is usually the comfortable call.

Do you travel outside Phoenix?

Yes! I love getting out of the heat and shooting in the mountains. Here's how travel fees work:


Phoenix & Scottsdale area — included

Greater Phoenix (Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert) — $50

Mountain Sessions (Sedona, Flagstaff, Payson) — $100


Those mountain sessions are truly worth it. The scenery, the light, the escape from the Arizona heat let's make those memories somewhere magical.

Can we do the session at my house?

Absolutely. An in-home maternity session falls under natural light and it is the most honest version of this whole thing.

How long does it take to get our photos?

You'll receive your full gallery within three weeks of your session. If you need them sooner, we offer rush delivery one week for $50 or three days for $75.

Do you offer albums or prints?

Yes! We offer beautiful custom albums starting at $300, and you can order à la carte prints directly from your online gallery. We also have print credits available as add-ons if you want to invest in tangible copies of your favorites.

What is your payment policy?

When you book, a deposit holds your date on my calendar. Here's the thing once I block out your time, I lose any other opportunity to work that day. So all deposits are final and nonrefundable. I understand life happens, though. If you need to cancel, your deposit gets held and you can apply it toward rescheduling whenever works for you. You're also welcome to reschedule twice for free because I know things come up. After that third reschedule, a new deposit will be due because at that point I need to protect my time as a business. Your final payment is only due if your session happens if you have to cancel before your session, you don't owe the balance, just the deposit situation I mentioned. To see full payment policy please visit our Payment policy to see full terms

Can I reschedule my session?

Absolutely, I know sometimes life happens and I totally understand. You can reschedule twice for free just give me as much notice as you can. If you need to reschedule a third time, a new deposit will be due to hold your new date.

Twenty-eight to thirty-six weeks, and then it's gone.

You’re building your family. This little person, this version of you, this season. It feels like it will last forever, then suddenly it’s over.


That deserves to be remembered.


Serving Phoenix, Glendale, Peoria, Scottsdale, and Cave Creek, with travel available to Sedona, Flagstaff, and Payson.
