Helping mamas press pause and feel seen during a season that’s anything but slow, with maternity sessions that are relaxed, meaningful, and never about perfection.
This isn’t just about “maternity photos.” It’s about holding space for who you are right now, becoming, expanding, changing. Some days you feel powerful. Other days, stretched thin. But every part of you is worth remembering.
As your Macon maternity photographer, my sessions are slow and intentional, never forced or overly posed. We focus on connection over perfection: the way your hand rests on your belly, the hush of anticipation, the love already forming with someone you haven’t yet met.
Whether you come alone for a moment of reflection or bring your family to wrap around you, we’ll make room for the beauty, the complexity, and everything in between.

From outfit help to prep emails to simple booking, I’ve made every part of this experience feel light and doable, even if your brain is full and your body’s tired.

When you book your Macon maternity photo session with me, you’ll get access to my curated Client Closet, filled with comfortable, camera-friendly pieces that feel good, look beautiful, and take the stress off your plate.
Not into borrowing? No problem. I’ll guide you through styling with simple tips, color palettes, and easy shopping links. Whether your session is at home, in a studio, or outdoors, we’ll pull together a look that feels like you.
I recommend booking your maternity session between 28–34 weeks. By then, your bump is beautifully visible, but you’re usually still feeling comfortable enough to move with ease. I always suggest reaching out a couple months ahead to secure your preferred date, especially if you’re aiming for a weekend or golden hour session in Macon or surrounding areas.
You don’t need to shop or stress, I’ve got you covered. You’ll get access to my Client Closet with bump-friendly dresses in soft, flattering styles, plus a personal styling guide and gentle suggestions to help you feel like your best self. Think flowing fabrics, natural textures, and whatever makes you feel beautiful in this season.
Don’t worry, I keep an eye on the forecast and will touch base if we need to reschedule. A little overcast sky can be beautiful, but if rain or strong winds are in the forecast, we’ll find a new date that works for you.
I respect your privacy and will only share images with your consent. If you prefer to keep your photos private, please inform me, and I will ensure they are not used in any public or promotional materials.
Absolutely. This chapter is about more than just the baby, it’s about your whole story. Whether it’s your partner, your other children, or both, I’ll gently guide the session to include them in a way that feels natural, connected, and full of love.
Yes! I know preparing for a baby comes with a lot. You’re welcome to break your session payment into smaller installments leading up to your session date. Booking early gives you more space to plan—without pressure.
Mama, yes. This session is for you. You don’t have to feel camera-ready to be worthy of being seen. I’ll gently guide you through every moment, help you with poses that feel natural and flattering, and capture you in a way that feels honest, beautiful, and real.
