Maternity Session
Thank you so much for entrusting me with your most valuable memories. I am dedicated to crafting stunning images and delivering top-notch products from leading companies nationwide and worldwide. During our session, expect an unforgettable experience as we collaborate as partners to create portraits that will be cherished for a lifetime.
MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION
Congratulations, Mama! Embrace the miracle of life through an artistic photoshoot that captures the radiant essence of your journey. Even during moments when you might not feel your best, my goal is to ensure you look and feel absolutely stunning throughout our session, preserving this unforgettable moment for eternity.
For studio sessions, I strive for an artistically minimalist result, featuring editorial looks, elegant B&W silhouettes, tasteful nudes, and the sweet connection between the expectant mom and her baby-to-be. The bond with the father and siblings adds an extra layer to this relationship. An array of gowns and fabrics is available for use during your session. When shooting outdoors, I use nature or NYC landscapes as a backdrop, letting the light sculpt the scene. Upon booking, you'll receive a Preparation Guide with valuable tips on getting ready for your session.
Capture the essence of your maternity journey with a session tailored to your unique style.

+ When is the best time to book a maternity session?
Schedule your session between 28-35 weeks when your belly is beautifully rounded, and you feel both comfortable and gorgeous. However, I'm flexible and always happy to accommodate your schedule.
+ What are the options for location?
Choose an ethereal and glamorous look at my NYC studio or highlight the your pregnancy glow in its most natural state outdoors. You also have the option for a combination of both settings. I am flexible to shoot anywhere in NYC or travel for a nominal fee.
+ Are sibling/partner shots included?
Dads/Partners-to-be and siblings are highly encouraged to join for at least a few shots during your session. Immediate family comes at no extra cost. A supplementary fee will apply exclusively to extended family members, pets, or any additional individuals participating in the session.
+ What should I bring?
We provide silks, form-fitting dresses, gowns, bodysuits, robes, and more to achieve our signature studio look. For outdoor sessions, count on our expert guidance to create a stylish and stunning ensemble for your session.
+ How long does the session last?
Studio sessions typically last around 1.5 hours, while outdoor sessions take about one hour. If you opt for both, we'll discuss your expectations and collaboratively decide how to allocate the time for each part of the session. Your preferences play a key role in shaping our session plan for a tailored experience.
+ Would you travel to my aparment?
While I'm open to traveling for lifestyle sessions (sans my studio equipment), it's crucial to note that the outcome will significantly rely on the lighting conditions and the layout of your home. Expect the images to differ from the signature look showcased on my website.
+ Are the images retouched?
Each portrait in your private online gallery, consisting of 30-50 unique images, comes complete with professional post-processing and artistic editing and retouching.
+ How much should I budget for the session?
A Creative Fee of $350 ($500 on weekends) is paid to secure your date. It covers the Photographer's time and talent, pre-consultation via phone or email, a customized styled session, use of props, and professional post-processing with artistic editing for your exclusive online gallery. Please note, the creative fee does not cover prints, products, or digital images, which are available for purchase through digital collections and/or à la Carte options. Clients typically invest between $895 and $3500 in images from their personalized photography session. For detailed pricing information, feel free to contact the studio.
+ Why is the creative fee different on weekends?
As a mom to two kids who are in school during the week, weekends are the only time I get to cherish with them. Consequently, my weekend schedule is limited and tends to book up quickly.
+ Are you vaccinated?
Absolutely! I am current with my TdaP vaccine, receive yearly flu shots, and have been fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID.
