Capturing the beauty of motherhood

Discover the Finest Maternity Experience with Lisa Poseley Photography

Maternity photography is a wonderful celebration of motherhood.

We will work together to style your session and select the looks from glamorous to casual, usually both! Whether you want a petite session to document the moment or a full-length session with numerous looks, we have an option that will work for you. Often women don’t feel so beautiful during pregnancy, trust Lisa to pose and light you in a way that will create stunning images. Children love seeing photos of their pregnant with them on the walls of their homes as part of their birth story.

The studio has a dressing room and a comfortable seating area for your partner and family. If you have little ones, we suggest they join for part of the session but consider having your spouse, partner, friend, or family member take them to the nearby library for the bulk of the session so you can fully relax and focus on this special experience.

Wardrobe: Feel free to bring your outfits, take advantage of our studio's collection of gowns and fabrics, or mix and match both. There's no limit to the number of wardrobe changes you can have, and if you plan, we can even help you discover something unique and perfect for your session. Your journey into motherhood deserves to be celebrated beautifully, and we can't wait to capture these unforgettable moments with you.

The ideal time for your maternity session is during your 7th to 8th month of pregnancy (between 28 and 36 weeks). By then, your belly has popped a bit, but you haven't reached the stage of feeling overly swollen. The further ahead your photo session is booked, the more we can customize and plan the style and outfits for your session.

We highly recommend having hair and makeup done to boost your confidence and add that extra touch of glamour. We’re happy to assist with wardrobe, including the use of our gowns and fabrics, and guide you through poses that will show off your pregnancy in flattering, stunning imagery.

All Sessions Include:

  • A session prep guide so you can arrive feeling prepared and knowing what to expect from start to finish.

  • Use of studio gowns and fabrics.

  • Family portraits

  • Pre-session consult.

  • A private online gallery to make selections and purchases from your session.

  • An optional virtual ordering session with Lisa.

  • Custom wall art mock and album design if requested

We’ll talk before your session to plan the look and wardrobe. During your photo session, Lisa will guide you through posing, so please don’t worry about knowing how to pose!

Our PROCESS

  • I do love the initial consultation. It's a quick call/Zoom and a nice way to meet when choosing a photographer.

    Sessions start at $650 including the photo session and digital files. We also offer beautiful products like albums, prints, wall art, and gifts.

    The consult is the best way for Lisa to share all the session details and to understand your needs and goals from the photo session.

  • After the consultation we will send you a proposal to walk you through an easy online booking process.

    After booking you will receive a brief questionnaire, a session prep guide, and a link to your online portal where you can access invoices, emails, and prep guides.

  • In the studio, we have everything needed for your newborn and toddler sessions and many silks and dresses for your maternity session. We can have a call to plan your session and Lisa can advise on wardrobe.

  • I highly recommend that Mom has hair and makeup done for the session. Whether you go on your own or bring your stylist into the studio. For newborn sessions, Mom can be pampered and prep for family photos while we photograph the baby.

  • The day of the photo session should be fun and stress-free! Leading up you will have been given everything you need to prepare. Newborn sessions are baby-led so we take breaks as needed.

  • Within 10 days of your session your proofing gallery will be ready. Choose to have a gallery review and ordering session with Lisa via Zoom or view & select your images in an online private gallery.

    Digital image packages start at $650, there is no session fee, most clients invest $1500 or more. We also offer only the finest albums, prints, wall art, and other products.

  • Digital images will be retouched and available to download within two weeks of ordering. Any products ordered will be delivered to your home. Your private online gallery is available long term so you can download and share anytime!
