This is the beginning of your motherhood story.
Pregnancy is one of the most powerful, profound and vlunerable transitions in a woman's life. It shifts something within you — not only physically, but in the way you love and who you are becoming. Let’s celebrate this chapter with intention, care, and thoughtful artistry.

As a Seattle maternity photographer based in Laurelhurst, I create refined, light-filled maternity portraits for women who value beauty, intention, and meaningful connection. Explore these featured galleries to see how each maternity session becomes timeless, heirloom artwork.
We're going to CREATE SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
Your
Every maternity session is thoughtfully designed to tell your story beautifully and authentically.
As a Seattle maternity photographer, I guide you from our first conversation through the delivery of your final images, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way.
We’ll create beautiful, classic portraits, but we’ll also hold space for the meaningful in-between moments that unfold naturally — the gestures, the laughter, the closeness. That’s where the heart of your story is found.
Your maternity session will feel relaxed and genuine, allowing connection to develop without pressure or performance. The result is more than a gallery of light-filled portraits; it’s meaningful artwork you’ll want to live with — displayed on your walls, passed down, and remembered for years to come.
Should you wish to turn your images into tangible keepsakes, I offer heirloom-quality custom album and wall art design, thoughtfully curated for your home.

Welcoming a baby into the world is one of the most profound seasons of your life — a time filled with anticipation, transformation, and a love that begins long before you ever hold them in your arms.
As a Seattle maternity photographer, I believe motherhood is never one-size-fits-all, and your maternity photographs shouldn’t be either. Whether you’re documenting the quiet strength of pregnancy, the tenderness of those first newborn days, or the milestones of your baby’s first year, each collection is thoughtfully designed to reflect your unique story.
Every collection includes a generous print credit to my professional lab, so your images don’t simply live on a hard drive, but are beautifully displayed in your home as heirloom albums, fine art prints, or custom artwork — tangible reminders of where your motherhood journey began.

motherhood:
when should i reach out?
I recommend reaching out during your 2nd trimester. Early booking gives us space to plan thoughtfully and secure your preferred date well in advance.
when should I book my maternity session?
The best time for maternity sessions is between 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully defined and you’re still feeling comfortable enough to move with ease
do you offer studio sessions?
Studio sessions are available by request. Although I don’t have a dedicated studio, I can coordinate a beautiful space that fits your vision. Please inquire for a custom quote.
what if we get rained out?
I'll keep a close eye on the weather in the days leading up to the session as well as the hourly forecast the day of. If rain is forecasted, we'll reschedule the session.
can i include my family?
Your maternity session is about celebrating your growing family, and partners and little ones are always welcome to be part of that story.
can i bring my PUP?
Your four-legged pals are always welcome at our sessions. We’ll go over the logistics together at the time of booking.
where should we do our maternity photos?
It depends on your vision. Whether you already have a location in mind or would like me to recommend one of my favorite Seattle maternity session spots, we’ll decide together during the planning process.
what should i wear for my maternity session?
Styling is an important part of your session experience. Once your date is secured, I will send you a detailed Styling Guide. You may also check out my blog post on the topic.
