Expecting | Raleigh Maternity Photographer

Sometimes I get an idea into my head and can't get it out, this was one of those times.  This post is from a session I did earlier this year.  I'd been looking at pre-Raphaelite paintings and had wanted to use this tutu for a while (I'm not sure those two things go together, but that was the source of inspiration!).  I wanted to do something sort of painterly and fun, but totally photographic.  So here is the final result:

Of course, I love this one, too.

And this one...

All in all, it was a gorgeous session.

Beautiful | Raleigh, NC Newborn Photography

Every time I start to write about maternity photography, I find that the photos speak more than I ever could.  They speak a story of love.  Of anticipation.  Of excitement.  Of superhuman strength.  Maybe even a tinge of apprehension of the unknown.

Pregnancy is beautiful.  Through their photos, these women manage to tell their story on their own.  And so, with that, I present you with my most recent maternity session.
