Best of North Shore, MA Maternity Photography
So, I’m kind of obsessed with this North Shore maternity photography session. Of course it helps that mama-to-be D is absolutely gorgeous. But this entire session is exactly what she (and what I) wanted. The perfect blend of glamorous and natural. And there is something so ethereal about a white dress in nature. This fly-away dress is one of my favorites for maternity portraits, and it works so perfectly in this setting. It isn’t always easy to take portraits outside, since there are so many factors to take into consideration. But usually the extra effort pays off, and in this case it definitely did.

Styling For This North Shore Maternity Session
The question “what should I wear for my North Shore maternity photo shoot?” is one that I get all the time, regardless of what kind of session. But I definitely understand why it can be difficult to decide for a maternity session. The good thing is, there aren’t many bad answers. The styling for any session is such a personal choice, and there are so many different ways to go. For this session, the answer was all white. And I love an all white maternity session. Luckily for all expecting mamas, I’ve collected quite the assortment of dresses, tutus, and accessories that can be used during maternity sessions. My goal is always to make mamas happy and help them achieve the look and style that they imagine.

Displaying Your Maternity Portraits
So often as mamas, our focus is solely on our children. And that includes displaying photos in our home. As our kids grow up the walls become full of their photos. Maybe we might have a photo or two from our wedding, or a family portrait, but that’s about it. And now, you can also have maternity portraits to display in your home. I know my daughters love seeing photos of my pregnant belly, and I’m sure your little one will. As a North Shore area photographer since 2009, I have learned from my own children as well as from my clients how important it is to display your photos.
If you’re not sure what photos to choose, or if you’re having difficulty deciding between canvas or framed art, let me help. I can create a custom wall art mock-up for you to see how your photos will look in your home. Just send me a photo of the wall you want to decorate, with a piece of printer paper taped to it so I can see the dimensions. Then I’ll digitally add your photos to the wall as canvases, or framed art, or a gallery including both.
