Year in Review: A Beautiful Year of Maternity Photography

As the year comes to a close, I’m filled with gratitude for every family who stepped in front of my lens. This was a truly meaningful year in my work as a maternity photographer, filled with soft light, real emotions, and the beauty of motherhood captured in its most natural form.

My focus this year was simple: authentic, natural maternity photos that highlight connection, movement, and the quiet magic of expecting a new life. Whether we were photographing at golden hour outdoors or in a cozy, softly lit studio, the goal was always the same - genuine moments over perfect poses.

A Year Full of Natural Maternity Photo Sessions

Some of my favorite sessions were the ones where moms-to-be let themselves just be—walking barefoot in a field, laughing with their partner, or holding their belly in a quiet, thoughtful moment. These natural maternity portraits continue to be highly searched and loved for their emotional depth, and I’m so grateful families trusted me to create them.

Trends That Defined This Year

This year’s most requested styles were:

  • A mix of warm neutrals and airy, pure whites

  • Simple, organic posing

  • Unposed, lifestyle-inspired maternity photos

  • Flowing dresses and minimal wardrobe pieces

  • Outdoor maternity photos at sunset

Most Asked Question of the Year

Still the winner:
“When is the best time for maternity photos?”
The ideal time is 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully full and you’re still comfortable enough for gentle movement and walking outdoors.

A Heartfelt Thank You

Every session reminds me why I love maternity sessions - your stories, your joy, your anticipation. Thank you for allowing me to document this sacred season of life. Every baby bump, every quiet moment, every natural laugh has meant so much to me.

As we head into a new year, my heart is full and my calendar is opening for maternity and newborn sessions. If you’re expecting, now is the perfect time to reserve your spot so we can plan your dream session together.

Here’s to another year of natural beauty, genuine connection, and the unforgettable journey to motherhood. ❤️
