Outdoor Maternity Portraits | Wethersfield, CT

Outdoor maternity portraits are a great way to capture the special moments before your baby is born! Danielle & Dan contacted me over the winter time to discuss planning photography for their newborn baby due in May. The great thing about my Annual Review Plan option is that clients can use it either for a traditional “Baby Plan” (newborn, 6 month, and 1 year sessions) OR you can opt to use it for up to 2 Petite and 1 Heirloom style photoshoot in the baby’s first year. So this was a great way for them to start off their story with a Maternity photoshoot to capture this period before becoming new parents! We decided to meet in Wethersfield, CT and although the morning was a little chilly, it was nice to get outside after a long winter and see some of the first signs of spring! Although this was a Petite portrait session, typically around 30 minutes in length, it was plenty of time to capture portraits of them together and then Danielle by herself. You can see how excited they are to be new parents, and I can’t wait to photograph baby when he arrives! We highly recommend booking these types of sessions in your 2nd trimester to guarantee availability. As with my May schedule, I was completely filled to capacity with newborns (and all session types) because we are not 100% sure when they will arrive. So it’s a great idea to book your due date well ahead of time to ensure we can hold time in the calendar and then schedule more specifically after they arrive (typically around 10-14 days later, weekday mornings). I’m looking forward to celebrating the newest basketball player to their family “team” and we’ll see if we have something special up our sleeves to highlight that. Stay tuned for their newborn session to be posted at a later date, and enjoy some of the favorites from their outdoor maternity portraits! 😉
