Houston Portrait Photographer Sarah Borchgrevink captures all things baby bump, newborn and family milestones.
Ahhhh, golden hour. My favorite time of the day. The magic hour. The inspirational hour. This is where I squeal and clap my hands and feel creativity. My sessions take place during the time shortly after sunrise or before sunset. The light is soft and pure; it embodies a stillness and creates a stunning canvas. It's my favorite tool to utilize.
I've been looking forward to previewing this beautiful couple. They're expecting their first baby soon and have entrusted me with the honor of documenting their baby bump. For each maternity session I photograph, I strive to create emotion and capture the love between Mom and Dad.
When you're waiting to meet your precious baby, it's an exciting time. You dream about his or her little features; her button nose or his cherub lips. You imagine Baby's weight in your arms.
I'm looking forward to designing the newborn session. I adore incorporating details from your nursery or perhaps sentimental items such as family heirlooms or even little gifts from loved ones. This hand made "O" for example represents the name of their baby and will be part of the color scheme for the custom newborn session taking place soon!
The little booties are darling! The golden light makes me so happy, too, as it graces mom's bump and showcases love.
I always encourage Dad to participate in the photos. If you have other kiddos, too, this is always lovely as well. We had a lot of fun at this session simply because it was quiet at the Coles Crossing location and I really had a succinct focus on showing the love between Mom and Dad.
Isn't Mom beautiful? She has a radiant glow about her. I used my 200 mm lens here so she's the focus of the frame and we can highlight her beautiful belly.
I like this location also because of the bridge. It's wonderful for evening because the sun sets right behind the water. The bridge is a lovely platform for adding structure to the images, too, and lends a timeless, classic feel so you may hang the images year around.
I finished the session with the sun directly behind Mom. By then, the light was soft and still; it radiates serenity and peace.
There's nothing wrong with a few candid shots during your maternity session. I like you to have fun and be who you are. Thank you to the M family! I am truly looking forward to meeting your little girl and cannot wait to work with you again. I hope you treasure these images for years to come.
