Pam + Jeff: Maternity Session

Rene — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 02:29:04 +0000

Celebrating a new life is an amazing thing. Being able to photograph some of that happening is a great honour and a truly amazing thing for me to do.

I met Pam and Jeff last year at Pam’s sisters wedding, I photographed that. And I thought she was cool and lots of fun. Then I found out that her and her partner Jeff were going to start a family and I just knew I had to shoot a maternity session with them.

I met with Pam and we went over some ideas for the shoot, we picked our date, and when the day came the sun decided to try and burn a hole through the earth. LOL. Well it was warm. So being me, I thought I cannot take a 7 month pregnant woman on a walking tour in 32 degree heat. So Pam suggested we stay in and shoot in the house. Ok, so the nice park was out, but the house made tons of sense.

After all the house will be the first place the baby comes to, and it is there that she will start her life with mom and dad, have birthdays, have sleep overs, go to and come home from school. So the house made sense, and it was way cooler.

The session worked out quite well, Pam, Jeff and I had some fun, shots some photos and had some laughs, that is how it should be, and that is how I want all my maternity shoots to go.

Below is the slideshow of the session images, I hope you like them as much as I did shooting them.

Pam: Maternity Teaser Images

I had the pleasure and honor of shooting Pam’s maternity session today. The idea originally was to go out to a nice spot like a park and shoot the session there. But the weather was a touch warm and the house was air conditioned and had a really at home feel to it. It was very comfortable, so we decided to just hang about and use the house as the studio today.

Thanks Pam and Jeff for allowing me a chance to capture an exciting and memorable time in your lives.

Here are a couple of teaser images from today. More soon once they are finished.

Mairi: Maternity

Now that spring has sprung and the long weekend is upon us I thought I would repost this maternity session.

This was pretty new for me, I had only done one of these previously and thought I would do one again. I really enjoyed doing this session. The idea of capturing a special time in someones life like this is really what I got into photography for.

Nerves, anticipation, reflection on what life is going to be like are all part of a session like this, as well as having a great photographic record of lifes most important times.

The location was chosen by Mairi and it was very nice, the property had it’s own little lake on it and provided some interesting places to shoot around.

Personally I would love to shoot more of these sessions, and I hope to soon.
