I missed Maternity Monday as I am a creature of habit. I edit sessions in order and I blog in order..... It's hard to break that, lol.
I can't wait to meet this sweet babe next Month, but I LOVE Maternity Sessions and I LOVE the beach, so basically when the two are together it's the best day ever.
This gorgeous momma was amazing and daddy did awesome too and I think even had, dare I say it, fun at the session (haha). Which brings me to my tips for Beach Maternity Photos.
1) Make Dad Comfortable-
I truly try to make dads feel comfortable and enjoy the sessions, so I love when I can see what they are. When there is real laughter and everyone is relaxed and I can focus on capturing the love and joy of their upcoming arrival. Keep it light, avoid super stiff posing and talk, tell jokes to keep it fun.
2) Plan Around the Sun-
Sunrise or sunset is best for the beach. Can you do photos at other times? Obviously, but the soft golden sun what we all love is right around sunrise and sunset.
3) Be aware of wind-
Sure there is almost always a breeze at the beach, but if the wind gusts are over 10mph, you may want to make a different plan. No one wants the wind blowing them everywhere if it doesn't have to be.
Being a Maternity Photographer is one of my fave things ever, and I am honored each and every time a family asks me to capture such a special time in their lives.
So, stay cool because it's almost 80 by 6am, and enjoy a few of my favorites from this beautiful Beach Maternity Portrait Session in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL.
