H + J | Brookside gardens maternity photographer

My favorite part of these photos is just how pregnant H is. How pregnant? She gave birth the very next day! If you are sitting and wondering to yourself - when might be a good time to schedule a maternity session then the answer is probably right now :) In all seriousness - the best time to schedule a maternity session is when you can still move with some ease but your belly has “popped”. Having said that - all bodies are different and you may be carrying small or you haven’t “poppped” yet and you due date is inching closer - not to worry. Any time is the right time if it feels good to you. Ideally for photographs - any time between month 5 and month 7 are great because you’re still feeling good (I hope you’re feeling good!) and the baby (babies!) still have some baking time left on the timer.

I love H + J’s honoring their Ethiopian heritage during their session as well as H’s sweet floral crown and commitment to wearing pink. It was a chilly morning but these two really stayed so sweet and ready to go and I could not love their photos more.
