Amidst the open skies and the quiet earthiness of rural Alberta, Natasha and James’ maternity session was less about the fanfare and more about capturing a snapshot of life before two become three. It’s about those unguarded smiles shared on a little hill, which years from now, will echo the laughter of the family they’ve grown into.

Maternity sessions can be intimidating – there’s a vulnerability in the midst of all the excitement. I do my best to make these situations fun and relaxed. It’s not just about the poses; it’s about finding those real interactions that feel as natural as the landscape enveloping them.
This isn’t a story of quick love; it’s one of real moments – the kind that whisper the promise of new beginnings. It’s about two people standing on the cusp of change, capturing the calm before the delightful storm of diapers and lullabies change their lives forever.
Having a maternity session is about embracing the now – it’s about creating a tangible reminder of where the journey began. It’s important to save these moments, in the moment. So if you’re considering documenting this singular moment in your life, let’s make it a comfortable, enjoyable, and truly memorable experience.
The importance of a maternity shoot isn’t in its ability to weave an overt tale of romance but to serve as a time capsule. A few years down the line, when their child points to a photo and asks, “What was it like when I was still in your belly?” – these images will be their answer. They’ll tell of the day spent beneath the expansive sky, of shared grins and the serene expectancy of what was to come.
