How to Feel Like the Glowing Goddess You Are on Session Day
Your maternity session is coming up soon, and you're already counting down the days. This is such a beautiful, fleeting season, and I can’t wait to help you capture it in a way that feels natural and true to you.
Here are a few simple tips to help you feel your very best before we meet:
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate...
Drink plenty of water the day before and the day of your session. Staying hydrated will help your skin glow, boost your energy, and just help you feel good overall. It’s one of the easiest ways to prep for photos — and it makes a real difference.
Bring comfy shoes
We’ll slip them off for barefoot moments, but if we’re doing any walking (especially outdoors), you’ll be glad you brought a pair of easy-on, easy-off shoes. Comfort first — always.
Eat a light snack beforehand
A little snack before your session can help keep your energy up and your mood happy. Growing a tiny human is no small thing — you deserve all the fuel and kindness you can give yourself.
Pamper yourself a little if you’d like
If your belly will be showing, moisturizing before your session helps keep your skin looking soft and smooth. Light, natural makeup photographs beautifully, and a fresh mani/pedi can add a sweet extra touch if you feel like treating yourself.
Don’t stress about the small stuff
The wind might catch your hair. You might laugh mid-pose. That’s the magic. Your session isn’t about being perfect — it’s about celebrating the real, beautiful moments that make this season so special.
Bring something meaningful
If you’d like, bring along anything that holds a special place in your heart — an ultrasound photo, a tiny pair of baby shoes, or a family heirloom. These personal touches add so much meaning to your story.
At the end of the day, this session is all about you — your story, your love, your journey.
Come exactly as you are. I’ll meet you there, ready to capture every beautiful moment. 🤍
