Maternity Photographer in Chanhassen MN | Johanne & Family

Did you all have a wonderful Christmas? I certainly hope so! And now it’s time for new beginnings and fresh starts. What better time to share the pregnancy pictures from Johanne’s beautiful maternity photography session?

Johanne and her family came to my photography studio in Chanhassen, MN to get some pictures together as they prepared to welcome a new arrival. Big sister was such a cutie, and very excited to help take care of the new little one. I’m sure she’ll be an awesome helper to Mom and Dad!

I also loved the intimate couples maternity portraits we were able to capture.

We picked out several beautiful maternity outfits from my client closet for Johanne to wear. The gold sequins went so beautifully with her dark hair and gorgeous skin.

The blue tulle is so fun and elegant—loved it paired with pearls!

And of course, you can’t go wrong with black. It’s one of those classics that is universally flattering and gives a sleek, modern vibe to photos.

Johanne was an absolutely stunning mom model! So glad I had the chance to work with her and meet her adorable family.

Holiday Maternity Photos | St. Cloud, MN Photography Studio

It’s that time of year—time for presents, treats, and, if you’re getting ready to welcome a little one in the coming year, holiday maternity photos!

It was wonderful to welcome this mother-to-be to my St. Cloud, MN photography studio earlier this month. Since it was December, we wanted to do a holiday theme while still getting pictures that she could enjoy year-round. We decided that a red, green, white, and gold color scheme would be perfect! That way when mom mixes and matches the pictures she’ll get that festive vibe we wanted to capture, but she can also use the maternity pictures featuring white and gold for a more neutral look.

We picked out some really pretty outfits to show off that beautiful baby bump! If you’re planning a maternity photo session, don’t stress about what to wear. While you’re welcome to bring your own outfits, I also have plenty of choices at the photo studio.

And while you’re planning, keep props in mind too! They aren’t just for newborn pictures. As a St. Cloud, MN maternity photographer I also keep plenty that can be used for pregnancy pictures too. I loved the choice of the throne and angel wings for this mama—they played in perfectly to our holiday theme while still being great stand-alone props too.

If you’re getting ready to welcome a little one soon, I hope you’ll contact me! Whether you want maternity photos, newborn photos, or both, I’d love to work with you to plan a session you’ll absolutely love!

Happy Holidays!

St. Cloud, MN Maternity Photographer | Lizbeth’s {35 weeks} Maternity Session

Lizbeth’s maternity shoot was nothing short of amazing. Her husband Keviin and her are basically models and she put off this Kim Kardashian vibe the entire time she was at the studio. This green bodysuit by Sew Trendy Accessories was my favorite though everything she wore, she wore it well. She looked so elegant in our couture gown by Katharina Hakaj Couture.

We could feel the love between this couple; both Lizbeth and Keviin were such naturals in front of the camera which made it really easy to photograph them. I was impressed how easily Lizbeth posed at 35 weeks pregnant. From experience, it can be hard to get around by that time!

It shouldn’t be much longer before we are sharing photos of their newborn as they’ll be returning to our studio for their newborn photoshoot as well. We are looking forward to meeting the baby behind your bump, Lizbeth! Best of luck with your labor and delivery.
