Chantal Maternity Session | Lost Dutchman State Park

I have been photographing so many mamas to be lately. One thing I always tell my mamas to be is make sure you wear something that makes you feel really good about yourself. Maternity clothes have come such a long long way. When you feel good about yourself, your smile, energy, and mood radiates exactly that. You want to transmit confidence in your images. Your most authentic self will come through.

C reached out and said she wanted pictures done with the gorgeous desert landscape (see other Lost Dutchman shoots) before baby boys’ arrival but also before she went back home (overseas). This gorgeous first time mama was so excited. Her gorgeous cousin who was with us, is also expecting, so it was fun to talk all things baby bumps. Women are warriors. Strong, brave and amazing.
