Maternity & Pregnancy Photographer near Richmond Virginia ~ { All Aglow }

What a beautiful little baby bump this young lady has!  She was literally aglow with her pregnancy!  And, bless her heart, she drove all the way from Midlothian, Virginia which is southwest of the Virginia state capital of Richmond!  But we are sooo glad she did…she was just a dream to work with and super sweet.  She had her heart set on a few specific poses…in particular, what we like to call the “bow bump” pose…cute, cute!   

I know she is dying to see her sneak peek…so here it is!

What a lovely, lovely couple.  I am so blessed to be able to photograph some of  the nicest couples during their special time of anticipation.  And, here recently, so many of our maternity portrait clients have been coming from the Ashburn / Dulles area… must be something in the water over there! 

This couple from Brambleton, VA was no exception… both are super excited about their expected little one.  Dad remarked that he was not fond of being in front of the camera but honestly, the camera loves him!  Just look at the image below…dad is just awesome!  Mom was just gorgeous and a joy to work with too.  She was such a cute little thing ~ I wish I looked that awesome at 7 months pregnant.

Joy - What a gorgeous Mama! Lovely images!

Shardai - Beautiful mama I love the second pic. I was always conflicted about taking professional maternity pics because I’m a somewhat conservative person and I just wouldn’t be so bold as to take some of the pics I had seen when this phenomenon first appeared. The idea of showing my belly petrified me. But seeing these elegant mamas, especially this last one. I am definitely going to consider this for my second pregnancy.

Crystal - Where did you find the alphabet blocks? I am looking all over trying to find cute ones??

Dawn - Crystal ~ these were a gift to my son for his first birthday back in 1999 so I have absolutely no clue where to tell you they came from! Good luck searching for some similar ones!!

Susan Costa - Love your photographs. Is the green and white Damask backdrop fabroc or a backdrop. I love it.

Dawn - Hi Susan, It’s a lovely fabric that I found years ago. I think they make backgrounds now with a similar pattern. Thanks for your comment!
