Choosing between a studio or outdoor maternity session can be a tough decision. Each setting offers unique advantages that can enhance your experience and the final images, depending on your overall vision for your photographs. Let’s explore the differences and benefits of both to help you decide which is best for you!

Welcoming a new life into the world is a wondrous journey, and mothers deserve to feel beautiful and be celebrated. I recently had the privilege of capturing Gillian’s pregnancy in a fine art studio maternity session as she anticipates the arrival of her second child, a boy.

I’m so excited to announce that one of my summer maternity sessions from last year has been published in the inaugural issue of The Kindred Path, a fine art magazine that celebrates motherhood photography and artistry. This feature is particularly special as it captures a moment of beauty and love for two very dear friends in a summer rose garden.

You’d never know it was pouring rain when we began Deborah and Aenyl’s September maternity session. We had already rescheduled once due to bad weather but we didn’t let that stop us this time as we set up this sweet maternity picnic photoshoot to reveal the gender of their first child.

For Jenn and Brett’s rose garden maternity photos, we took advantage of this uncharacteristically beautiful June and head to what I’d seriously consider heaven on earth–a 4.5 acre garden filled to the brim with fragrant roses in bloom.

Finding the perfect maternity photoshoot dress online isn’t easy, especially if your size has changed or if you aren’t sure what dress silhouettes will be flattering for your bump. The stores I chose to include in this guide have a wide range of styles and sizes, and most of them you can keep wearing postpartum.

This whimsical maternity photoshoot in Philadelphia was reminiscent of an English country garden in full bloom. There were several moments throughout their shoot which reminded me of my favorite impressionist paintings–of women becoming fully immersed in the luscious rejuvenation of spring. This cycle of birth and renewal was the perfect metaphor for Erin’s spring maternity photoshoot.

If you’re planning for outdoor winter maternity photography in Philadelphia, chances are it’s going to be cold. But that doesn’t mean your portraits have to be a miserable, frigid experience, or even show that it’s winter. You can still have gorgeous, light-filled photographs of this special time in your life, without needing to change your vision and flee inside.
