Maternity Garden Session | Columbus, Ohio Maternity Photography

I love being able to meet my expecting mamas before I photograph their newborn and family. It gives us a chance to connect and hang out. My larger newborn package includes a complimentary maternity session, and they're always so much fun!

Lindsey brought her adorably sweet son with her for a mix of maternity and mommy and me photos. The garden and field made a perfect backdrop for this glowy mama.

Each maternity session lasts about 30 minutes and can be held in my studio or at one of my beautifully chosen locations in Grove City, Ohio. With summer creeping up I had been itching to get outdoors, and it sure didn't disappoint!

Oh big brother, the things you'll teach your younger brother.

"Do you hear that? The heartbeat. Bomp bomp bomp." Be still my heart sweet big brother. So full of love and curiosity.

Giving Mom only the biggest and bestest "flowers" he could find.

I had an idea to photograph Lindsey from a certain angle, but as soon as she lay on my quilt her son plopped down and wrapped her with love and snuggles. The best moments are never planned, but should always be captured to remember forever.

I don't think its possible for me to go one session without capturing some baby piggies.

Sometimes you need to just let it all out. Look at that baby tummy sticking out. I can barely handle it!

Even in between wardrobe changes Mr. J managed to give me all kinds of eye contact. He brought his A game!

He did a little flexing and push-ups for his mama. He couldn't take his eyes off her!

Jameson's mama looked so stunning and effortless. Mommy and baby photos are one of my favorite things ever. He was pretty tuckered out at this point so she started singing lullabies to him.

Those eyes. <3

This white bedding setup has become my absolute favorite. You can really let yourself relax and just "be" with your loved ones in my studio. No shoes, no problem.
