Maternity Photography in Huntington Beach
Capturing the beauty and magic of motherhood
Pregnancy is a meaningful and deeply personal chapter—one filled with anticipation, quiet strength, and transformation. It can also feel emotional, overwhelming, and fleeting. Maternity sessions are designed to help you slow down, connect with your changing body, and honor this season with intention and grace.
You don’t need to feel “glamorous” or picture-perfect to book a maternity session. You only need to show up as you are. Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, whether you’re feeling radiant or a little unsure, you are welcomed and supported here. My role is to guide you gently through the experience so you feel confident, seen, and deeply celebrated.
Sessions are available in my Huntington Beach studio for a polished, refined look, or outdoors during golden hour for soft, natural light and an effortless feel. From wardrobe guidance to gentle posing direction, every detail is thoughtfully handled so you can relax and stay present. All maternity sessions include complimentary professional hair and makeup, allowing you to feel cared for and at ease throughout the process.
In addition to digital images, I offer custom-designed albums and heirloom-quality wall art so these portraits can be experienced and shared for years to come. Maternity session investment begins at $1,290 and sessions are best scheduled between 28–34 weeks of pregnancy. This is an invitation to honor your body, your strength, and the life you’re creating—beautifully and without rush.
