Although we always recommend booking your maternity and newborn photos together, we know that, for various reasons, it doesn’t always happen. Paula had already booked her newborn session with us, but wasn’t planning on doing maternity pictures. It was such a fun surprise for her when her sister gifted Paula’s maternity photoshoot to her through Tiny Hearts Studio! Her sister really wanted this beautiful mama to have pregnancy photos to remember this special time. What better gift for a mother-to-be?

All of our maternity clients have access to our studio wardrobe, and Paula chose several elegant options in both light and dark colors, giving us a beautiful variety for her maternity photoshoot. As with most of our maternity sessions, we didn’t do a lot in the way of props. We prefer to focus on you and your beautiful, changing body! But one or two props (like a chair or posing block) can give us a few more posing options and add depth and interest.

Paula’s husband was also able to join us at our St. Cloud, MN studio location. It’s always so special to capture the love between a couple during a maternity session, and we loved being able to record the sweet relationship of this beautiful pair!
