Maternity is one of my favourite stages to capture

I am just loving maternity sessions in the last few months!! With our maternity special through the website, when our mama’s book their full newborn session with me, they receive a free mini maternity session in the studio!! It is so great to meet before this newborn session, we can plan colours for baby’s session, everyone gets to visit the studio and it is a lovely way to start getting to know each other. 

The maternity stage is one of my favourite times to capture. We usually have mamas in when they are between 34-36 weeks for their pregnancy pictures. Mom is often still moving around quite comfortably and has a beautiful baby bump! 

I wasn’t fortunate enough to get newborn photos done with my owns kids (newborn photography was not readily available here when my kids were born) but I did have maternity photos. Our kids love guessing which belly held their sweet baby selves and I am still in awe of how a mama can carry a baby around for 9 months-our bodies are truly incredible!

This mama’s baby has already arrived and they are coming in for their session this week so I thought I’d better share their maternity images!! She and her daughter had the most incredible hair and this family THE sweetest bond. I loved seeing how excited big sister was for her baby brother to arrive!

If you would like to book a maternity photo session, please give Amanda a call at 250-885-6860 or send her an email to amandahaddow@gmail.com

Newborn Baby Photography Session – David

This session was very close to my heart as Mum & Dad are dear friends of ours <3 This little boy has long been wished for and we were so excited when he finally arrived!! He is the most adorable baby and was such a chilled little guy during our session! We were able to do props, beanbag poses and parent shots and he slept and slept!!

I love to have parents pick out a couple of their favourite colours before a session that tie into a nursery colour scheme or colours they might like to have on their walls. Baby David’s nursery is mostly green so we wanted to pull that colour in as well as some blues. Earthy tones brought everything together.

Welcoming adorable baby David xo

Thinking about booking your newborn baby photography session in Victoria BC? It’s never too early! Newborn baby picture sessions take place within 5-12 days after baby’s birth and my calendar fills up quickly. It is suggested that you book your newborn photographer at the beginning of your second trimester to guarantee room on their calendar around your baby’s estimated due date.  I can’t wait to take your precious baby’s photos!
