When we had professional maternity photos taken for our son, we were so excited—until we saw the results. The lighting was awful, the poses felt unnatural, and the entire experience was disappointing. I couldn’t let that be our only memory of such a special time, so I went home, picked up my camera, and took the photos you see below - right in the window of my house, using only a flash from behind and one in front. That’s when I realized—every expecting mom deserves a beautiful, comfortable, and empowering maternity session.
