This past week I got the chance to see one of my past clients again, who came for her maternity session for baby #2! I first met them last year when I captured their maternity and newborn session for baby boy Grayson (see photos HERE) and I also did his newborn session (see photos HERE). Grayson is now 10 months old, and will be a big brother in a few short weeks!
Meet this beautiful couple that came to see me! Mom had booked this session a while back so I was excited to finally meet her! She wanted beautiful, yet simple fine art maternity photos so I knew I wanted to go with simple back lit images, that are stunning and timeless. They also had sweatshirts that had personal meaning to them of Barack and Michelle Obama, so we made sure to take some photos with those, and the elephant that has their precious baby girl’s heartbeat in it. I will also be meeting this little one for her newborn photos and I can’t wait! This couple was so fun, and a genuinely kind couple, and that made it so easy and effortless to work with them, and they are SO happy! There’s nothing like that first pregnancy experience. It’s pure bliss. The newborn session will be as amazing as this one, I already know!

This beautiful mommy to be right here!! I mean, come on! It should be illegal to look this good haha! I first met her almost 6 years ago, when I photographed her twin boys as newborns, so I was over the moon to hear that she was expecting again, no multiples this time though, just one handsome baby boy. She had this beautiful orange dress that she wanted to include in the shoot as she told me that orange was not only her favorite color, but that was her favorite dress too so it was a must to include it, and wow I am so happy we did! It looked amazing on her, she is nothing but belly!! What an absolute pleasure it was photographing her, and when her son is born in a few short weeks, I will have the honor of photographing him as well, I can’t wait!

Surprise! This is what I titled this post, because this is what this session was! I was contacted by this gorgeous mom’s husband, who told me they were expecting their third baby, and after 2 boys, they were finally having their little girl, and his wife always wanted to get maternity photos done but never had the chance to, so we wanted to do something special for her and surprise her with this gift! It was the cutest thing ever. They drove up and she only found out once she was here! And I must say I was absolutely floored by her beauty, and could not believe that not only was she expecting baby #3, but she was also 37 weeks pregnant!! She rocked this session from beginning to end, and it was evident that she had done modeling before for sure! She made my job easy 🙂

Unique themed maternity photography in Chicago IL, golden dreams and perfect visions for your maternity shoot, that is what Naja specializes in! And what an honor it was to meet and photograph this beautiful mama-to-be; she found my work on INSTAGRAM and she loved my work so much, that she made the trip all the way from Kentucky to come see me! What an honor!! They drove over 4 hours to come see me, and they will be coming back once their little boy is born, for the newborn session! What had caught mom’s eye was the Gold theme maternity shoots that I offer, it is the exact unique themed maternity photography that she was looking for. So we started with the regular setups, then finished with having my makeup artist come in, to paint her in glitter and gold, head to toe. The shoot was amazing, and they were the absolute cutest couple ever! Their last name is “Overall” so they had the cutest idea to have some pictures done in.. You guessed it, overalls! 🙂 I can’t wait to meet their little guy in a few weeks, and I know it will be as amazing as the maternity session was…
