Your partner has an important role in your child’s story, so, of course, we’d love for them to be part of your maternity photo session. But, sometimes, they don’t want to. It’s not that they don’t love you or the baby. I have four things you can do if your partner doesn’t want to take maternity photos with you. And I’ll share what we do if they simply don’t want to be part of this session.

Embrace the beauty of motherhood with style and comfort! If you're an expecting mother, congratulations on embarking upon this incredible journey. As your body and life transform, so too should your wardrobe. In Niagara, you're in luck – we've curated a list of 7 fantastic maternity clothing stores where you can find everything to suit your evolving style and needs.

Your Niagara maternity photos should be an experience that you look forward to and not one that creates a million things to do. I hear from many mamas who are stressed over finding what to wear for their portrait session. Not only do they need to find something they can wear, they need to find outfits for their entire family. I’d love to share how…

Recent studies have shown that pregnancy is comparable to competing in a high-endurance event for nine months straight. Researchers gathered data on how an athlete’s body reacted to a high-endurance event (like running a marathon), analyzed that next to data on what a  pregnant woman’s body goes through, and found the results strikingly similar.

Nesting is a natural instinct many mamas experience later in pregnancy. I would describe it as feeling the urge to prepare for your baby’s arrival. Here, I put together my top 10 pregnancy nesting tips for my Niagara moms. These tips include preparing your house, your family, and even your support after the baby arrives.

Maternity photography documents that beautiful yet short time before you meet the love of your life. Some of my clients feel amazing and are excited about their maternity portrait session, while some are a little nervous and unsure. Yet, every mom is excited about meeting their baby and know they want portraits to remember this time.

Do you feel awkward being in front of the camera? You are far from alone. In fact, I think many of my clients would say that they feel awkward in front of the camera. It’s a concern that gets brought up during my initial consult during the photography booking process.

You deserve to effortlessly document your pregnancy. I remember how tiring pregnancy can be. You feel like there’s so much that needs to get done before the baby is born, yet you can’t help but feel so excited to meet this baby.

Long before I pick up my camera, you and I dream about your future portraits and how we’ll lovingly display them in your home. My booking process is about building the foundation for a long-lasting partnership. I’d love to share Reflection’s 4-Part Booking Process with you. This way, you’ll know exactly what to expect after you hit “send”!

Not being photogenic is actually a good thing. Have you ever looked at someone else’s beautiful maternity photos and thought, “Wow, well, she’s very photogenic, and I’m just not.” The truth is that she probably felt the exact same way before her photo session. I hear from mamas (and their partners) all the time that they would love to have professional maternity portraits taken but worry that they’re not photogenic enough.

As your Grimsby maternity photographer, I don’t want to just take your portraits. I want to help you display them in a way that’s important to you. Your pregnancy journey is part of your family’s story, and you should be able to look back and remember this special time in your life. I have four ideas on how you can display your maternity portraits.

Family photography is good for the soul. Of course, as a photographer, I’m going to say that, but I really believe that photography is good for you. My printed photos of my children are some of my most precious possessions. If you’re like me, you probably catch yourself looking at photos of your children when they were babies…
