A new baby is coming! Welcoming a new baby into the world is a beautiful and emotional journey. Your family’s journey is filled with love, growth, and the start of a new chapter from the first signs of pregnancy to the tiny toes of a newborn. That’s why so many families choose to capture these precious memories through maternity photography sessions, to make sure they never forget these fleeting moments. I can help you remember this special season forever.

The Motherhood journey starts with Maternity Photography in Bend, OR

Celebrate and remember the incredible and challenging journey of motherhood. That’s why maternity photography sessions are so special – they’re not just about taking pictures but about capturing the joy, excitement, and love that a mother and her child share even before the little one arrives. And let’s remember newborn photography and baby’s first year! Those first few days of a baby’s life through their first birthday, when they are everchanging, are so precious. Capturing their innocence, tiny features, and the endless love that family members have for them is truly priceless.

Pampering during your Maternity Photography Session

Pregnancy is a memorable and exciting time, and maternity photo sessions are a wonderful way to capture this beautiful journey. I highly recommend taking advantage of the option to get pampered with hair and makeup during these sessions.

I also have a client wardrobe full of beautiful dresses to choose from, which will make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Let’s work together to create stunning images that showcase the beauty of your pregnancy!

The Motherhood Membership: Capturing with Maternity Photography through Baby’s First Year

Recalling the significance of keeping the chronicle during pregnancy and the baby’s first year, Natalie Stephenson proposes the Motherhood Membership. This membership offers multiple sessions throughout the year to ensure we don’t miss any milestone in your baby’s life. The sessions capture the family’s growing story, from the maternity stage to celebrating the baby’s first year.

Benefits of the Membership

  • Pampering for Moms: I’ve designed the portrait sessions to offer mothers a pampering and enjoyable experience, allowing them to relax and have fun.
  • Stress-Free Planning: With the outfits provided and a slow pace taken, you can sit back and relax to enjoy the portrait session with no stress or hassles, embracing the moment instead.
  • Capturing Milestones: The membership allows parents to capture the baby’s first year, creating a beautiful story of growth and love.

A Stress-Free Experience

I strive to create a pleasant and comfortable atmosphere for every family during their sessions. With preplanning the wardrobe and products my client wants, I can then focus on capturing the genuine interaction and love between family members, allowing them to relax and enjoy themselves freely while I capture all the details.

Remembering This Season

If you are looking for a way to capture those precious moments with your little ones and keep them as treasured keepsakes forever, photography for expectant mothers and newborns is just what you need. It’s about creating beautiful images to help you relive those special moments when your baby was still tiny enough to sleep in your arms.

And if you’re in Bend, you’re in luck! When capturing motherhood sessions, choose between Bend’s stunning backdrop or the studio’s natural light to create gorgeous, natural-looking photographs. With me, you can have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture your maternity and baby memories in a beautiful style. I would love to serve you and your family.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What will be the best time to arrange a maternity photography session?

Please get in touch anytime! I would love to chat about The Motherhood Membership or a single maternity or newborn photography session.

Can the family members be part of the session?

I’d love you to bring your spouse and any siblings to your maternity or newborn session! It’s a great way to capture the warmth and joy of your whole family.

What should I wear for my maternity session?

As your full-service maternity photographer, I’ve got you covered! You don’t have to worry about what to wear because I offer a client wardrobe. You can choose a dress from the closet without any stress. I’ve carefully chosen dresses that are timeless, flattering, and comfortable for moms. Plus, there are clothes for your little ones under 3T. And don’t worry about the rest of your family – I’ll send you a clothing guide that will help.

What is a Motherhood Membership, and what does it contain?

With this exclusive membership, you can enjoy up to four photo sessions that document your pregnancy to your baby’s first birthday. From maternity to sitting up and first birthday sessions, The Motherhood Membership is specially designed to ensure that you don’t miss a single milestone.
