San Diego Maternity Photographer | Valerie

Pregnancy is one of the most amazing, incredibly special, and beautiful moments in a woman’s life. Knowing that you are nourishing and grow a tiny little human is nothing short of a miracle. A maternity photo session is designed to celebrate and document the precious new life growing within. Before you realize it you will be holding your sweet baby in your arms reminiscing on the sweet moments when the two of you were one.

 I know sometimes you don’t feel the most comfortable in your skin while pregnant…growing waistlines, the swelling, hormones running a muck. As your maternity photographer, I strive to make you look and feel amazingly beautiful! These images are captured in such a way to draw out the beauty, love, connection, and femininity of pregnancy. Maternity sessions are one of my favorites because there is something so magical and amazing about a women’s body growing life inside of her and the excitement of the new parents to be as they await the arrival of the newest tiny addition to their family.

I adore this sweet couple and I was honored to capture this special and fleeting moment in time for them to cherish forever. I adore so many images from this session. While I love maternity photos outdoors with the golden dreamy light, there is something so intimate and beautiful about a bedroom maternity session. They will be welcoming their sweet baby boy early next year.
