Houston TX Maternity & Newborn Photographer | Natural Light and On Location Pregnancy Portraits for Expecting Couples and Families
“Making the decision to have a baby is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.” - Elizabeth Stone
Good morning on this cloudy Saturday! Thanks for stopping by my blog. If you have not been here before, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Sarah, and I am full time Houston Photographer with a succinct focus on pregnancy and maternity portraits, newborn baby photography and outdoor family sessions. I encompass all milestones for Houston families and children, too. This in mind, today's post previews one of my stunning maternity clients! She is also scheduled for a custom newborn session, so I'm pretty excited to see her and her sweet husband in just a few short months.
For our time together, we met early in the morning, right at sunrise. We shot in Cypress Texas at a favorite location of mine. Early morning portraiture sessions are always some of my favorites simply because the light is soft. While evening light is lovely, too, morning sets a different tone. Her stunning gown looks fantastic against the green foilage. In Houston, our weather is warm most of the year (it does get into the 80's during the winter, haha) so her gown reflects her spring due date.
For all of my maternity sessions, I encourage your spouse to participate. They are a huge part of your story and documenting the love between a couple expecting their first baby is truly extraordinary. Of course, if you have other children, too, they're welcome to participate as well. In that case, it's honestly a family session with emphasis on the baby bump.
This sweet couple was wonderful to work with. They're kind, relaxed and kept me smiling the entire session. I loved hearing about their daily life, how they met, where they work and some of their favorite hobbies or past times. We chatted about their nursery, where she's delivering, and of course I asked about her sister, who's own maternity and newborn photos I documented. It's the biggest compliment when you refer your family or friends to my professional services. As a small busines owner, word of mouth is a huge part of our work!
One of my favorite aspects to their session are the leaves. Since we live in Houston, we don't really get a true autumn; but the wind was gentle that morning and softly flickered the leaves around them. They gently fell and just added a lovely texture to the rustic wooden bridge.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed viewing the outdoor and natural maternity session! Come back in a few months so you may see the posed newborn session we'll be doing!
