𝟑 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 ⁠
1. 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺⁠
Pick two or three colors that naturally complement each other and build your outfits around that. You don’t need to match perfectly, just coordinate so each person feels like themselves while still looking cohesive together.⁠
⁠
2. 𝘔𝘪𝘹 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘥𝘴 If someone wants a pattern, pair it with solids to keep the look balanced. For example, a floral dress looks amazing with neutral pants or a simple top. It keeps the outfit interesting without feeling busy.⁠
⁠
𝟥. 𝘋𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 A few thoughtful details, like a cozy scarf, a cute hat, or a simple necklace, can add personality without taking over the look. ⁠
⁠
Above all, remember...⁠
your 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘫𝘰𝘺 ⁠
are the stars of the session, ⁠
not your outfit but ⁠
always happy to help with this part! ⁠

What a maternity session 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 like in my relaxed, cozy studio…⁠
⁠
𝗜𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴⁠
that 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘶𝘵 ⁠
of figuring out what to wear. ⁠
Whether you 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘄 from ⁠
my client wardrobe or ⁠
𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 you pull pieces together, ⁠
you’ll walk in 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵.⁠
⁠
From there, 𝘸𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩...a lot. ⁠
𝘞𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦, 𝘸𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺, ⁠
we let moments 𝘂𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗱. ⁠
⁠
𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲...⁠
you 𝘴𝘯𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 into your partner, ⁠
𝘨𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 through prompts, ⁠
and leaning into those ⁠
𝘪𝘯-𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 ⁠
that 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 the most like 𝘆𝗼𝘂.⁠
⁠
And somewhere along the way, ⁠
𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘢. ⁠
You feel at ease. You get cozy. ⁠
You leave 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 ⁠
because you didn’t just take photos,⁠
you 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 that show ⁠
the 𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘰𝘯! ⁠
⁠
⁠
If you’re welcoming a new little one soon, ⁠
now is the perfect time to reserve your winter studio session ⁠
so you have these sweet memories to hold onto ⁠long after the newborn days pass.⁠ Comment “STUDIO” to get all the details. ⁠

𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗽𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝘀...⁠
⁠
𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶⁠
⁠
I always try to capture those 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵, ⁠
because I know it can set the tone for the rest of the session. ⁠
⁠
For some families...⁠
⁠
it’s a 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦 right at the camera⁠
and for other toddlers, ⁠
it might be a 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘨𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘺. ⁠
⁠
If a sibling needs a break or wants to explore that’s 𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗸𝗮𝘆⁠ (and expected! That’s what the lounge is there for) ⁠
⁠
These moments are about⁠
⁠
𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, ⁠
𝘭𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳, ⁠
𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘫𝘰𝘺, ⁠
⁠
capturing the growing bond your children share ⁠
in a way that 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘅𝗲𝗱. ⁠
⁠
If you’ve been wondering how your older kids might fit in, ⁠this is your sign to book your newborn session! ⁠

When a momma tells me she wants to ⁠
𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗼𝘀, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 ⁠
of right now I get so excited⁠! ⁠
⁠
Because that’s exactly what 𝘐’𝘮 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳. ⁠
⁠
the giggles, ⁠
the hand holding, ⁠
the quiet hugs ⁠
in between all the chaos ⁠
⁠
those are the moments ⁠that tell ⁠
𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺’𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺⁠
⁠
When you see your love back ⁠
through my lens, ⁠
𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 ⁠
that 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵 with joy ⁠
⁠
and I’m so honored to be the person to show you that.

3 ideas to 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰 with your family⁠ ⁠
⁠
⁠
𝟣. 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘯 𝘢 𝘧𝘶𝘯 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨⁠
 Head to your favorite pumpkin patch, we love @gustbrothers, or an apple orchard and let your kids take the lead. Play mommarazzi and capture all the fun they are having! Photograph them close up and far away to get the whole story. ⁠
⁠
⁠
𝟤. 𝘙𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭! ⁠
There’s something about a big pile of leaves that brings out the kid in everyone. Turn your yard cleanup into a memory-making adventure. Encourage jumping into the pile and then burry them while photographing above them for the cutest shots! ⁠
⁠
⁠
𝟥. 𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶! ⁠
 If you’d rather be in the photos instead of behind the camera, I have a few openings left this fall. There’s one 30-minute session available on October 22nd & November 5th plus several 15-minute sessions throughout the month. These are the perfect way to slow down for a bit, soak in this cozy season, and create real, joy-filled memories together! ⁠🍁
