It isn’t aways easy to create natural posing for maternity photos. When I first met Laura and David for their maternity session at the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain, they both told me that they feel awkward in front of the camera and actually hate getting their photo taken. I told them that I hear this all the time, and that I’d work to make them feel comfortable and natural, even though it can feel a little awkward.
Has it been a while since you got a good photo of you with your kids Didn’t book a newborn or family session because of the price? Do you just want a handful of images of you and your kiddos for your wall? Then Spring 2025 Boston Motherhood mini photo sessions are perfect for you!
Its February, which means I’m busy with Winter maternity photos in Boston. This time of year, most of my pregnant clients choose studio maternity photo sessions over outdoor shoots. Obviously, living in Boston, the weather is a major factor for choosing a location for your photos during the winter. While I love snowy family photos when kiddos are a little older and everyone can bundle up and play, maternity sessions are different. Here’s some reasons why my studio is my preferred location for Winter maternity photos in Boston.
I have a good friend who’s due date has come and gone, and I was trying to think of particularly good advice to give her in these final days (hours?), about how to prepare for postpartum. Here are my tips for how to prepare, from my own personal experience!
Did you know that 95% of the outdoor photos you see on my website and social media were taken in the Arnold Arboretum? Aside from the fact that its a 5-10 minute drive from my house, there are so many reasons that I think the Arnold Arboretum is the best family photos location in Boston (and outdoor maternity photo sessions.) Here are somethings I look for in outdoor shooting locations and why I prefer the Arnold Arboretum for outdoor photos in Boston again and again.
Wow so amazed to have won this! Thank you so much to everyone who took time to vote for me!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Busy season 2025 is officially wrapped! Just finished up a lovely in home newborn session in JP and now have a full week off for the holidays. You wouldn’t know it by my feed, but over the last three months I’ve photographed over 50 sessions. I’m so grateful for all those families who trusted me with their portraits, and I will be busy getting those images out ASAP! :)
I was nominated for Favorite Family Photographer by @communitykangaroo ! I NEED YOUR HELP! It would mean the world to me if you could vote for me and my business to help me win! Link in bio!
51 sessions in 3 months, no sweat 😂😂😂🫣
NO FUN ALLOWED 😂😂 Can’t wait for newborn photos with this fam ❤️❤️❤️ #bostonfamilyphotographer #motherhood #maternityphotographer #bostonmaternityphotos
I’ve been up editing since 3am… anyone else have a child who barely eats dinner and then wakes up way too early STARVING??? Ugh
Popping out of my editing hole to share this session I just wrapped. I know everyone loves fall foliage but for me, wildflowers will always be the best 🥰
I know I am horrible about posting, but Fall is getting booked QUICK. I can only take so many sessions each month, so if you’re hoping to get on my calendar this year (including newborns and maternity) please let me know ASAP!
So many sessions I haven’t shared yet! This one was a stunner 😍😍
