A maternity session is more than just a photoshoot — it’s about capturing the beauty, strength, and anticipation of this transformative time in a woman’s life. Recently, I had the honor of photographing Lauren, who was glowing as she awaited the arrival of her little one. Here’s a peek behind the scenes of this unforgettable maternity session.


Setting the Scene

For this session, we chose a serene outdoor location early in the morning (it’s Texas, y’all, by 9 AM it’s broiling!), as the soft light perfectly complements the natural glow that expectant mothers radiate. With the warm sunlight streaming through the trees, it created the perfect backdrop to highlight Lauren’s silhouette and the tenderness of the moment.


The Wardrobe

Maternity photography is all about highlighting the beauty of the baby bump while ensuring mom feels comfortable and confident. Lauren opted for a flowing comfy gown in a soft neutral green that added a touch of elegance to the photos and really blended perfectly with the setting. For maternity sessions, I always recommend light, flowing fabrics that allow for movement and create a sense of grace.


Capturing the Connection

One of my favorite aspects of maternity photography is capturing the connection between the expectant mother and her partner or family. The intimate moments — a gentle touch, a shared laugh — were truly heartwarming, and these candid shots became some of the most cherished images from the session.


Why Maternity Photography Matters

Every pregnancy is unique, and a maternity session allows expectant mothers to pause and celebrate this special time before the whirlwind of parenthood begins. It’s a beautiful way to document not just the physical changes but the emotional journey of preparing to welcome a new life. These images will be a treasured keepsake for years to come.


Final Thoughts

At Wednesday Bailey Photography, my goal is to provide a relaxed, fun experience while capturing timeless images that celebrate life’s most precious moments. Whether you’re glowing with anticipation like Lauren or planning your own maternity session, I’d love to help tell your story through beautiful, heartfelt images.
