I had a wonderful time with this sweet family maternity session at Grapevine Botanical Garden! There is just something special about toddlers, and their unbridled “I do what I want” attitude that I love to photograph. I know what it’s like as a parent, fretting if your toddler is being ‘good’ or ‘bad’, but at the end of the day, they’re just being a toddler. It’s such a transformative period in their lives, and yes, they will have you running, but it’s worth every moment! This beautiful family is expecting their new family member soon, and I know Mr. E will be such a great big brother.
Getting a mix of natural playfulness and more classic, posed images is one of my favorite things to do. Toddlers definitely make it easy to go heavy on the play! Letting our children be children in front of the camera is one of the best ways to get authentic photos to really remember who they were at that time. A family maternity session is so special, because it celebrates what your family is within the moment, while celebrating the way you’re growing. Mama is such a natural beauty, as well! We had such a great time during our session.
Here are some of my favorite images from this session:
If you’re adding to your family, and expecting a new baby soon, I’d love to talk with you about a family maternity session that celebrates your journey. There are so many ways to customize your maternity photos in a way that works for your family. Drop me a line for more information, and I’m happy to send you everything you need to know!
