I am thrilled to share the beautiful story of a recent family maternity session, a heartwarming session that unfolded against the backdrop of my professionally lit studio in Greenwich Connecticut. As a professional newborn and family photographer, it’s always a privilege to document the anticipation and joy of growing families, and this darling family was no exception.

It all began when Cindy found Looking Up Photography through Google, seeking a photographer who could turn her family moments into timeless memories. The family, soon to welcome a baby boy, radiated excitement and warmth during our maternity session.

Maternity Session Details:

From the start, Cindy expressed a desire for a mix of formal and candid portraits. This included solo shots, couple poses with her husband Parsa, and various combinations with the kids – Mila and Luca. The goal was to capture the essence of their happy, blended family dynamics in a natural, un-fussy way.

Styling and Wardrobe Choices:

The family’s modern take on classic New England style set the tone for the session’s aesthetic. Cindy envisioned classic neutrals for their indoor maternity shoot.

The anticipated arrival of their baby boy was met with excitement not only by Cindy and Parsa but also by Mila and Luca, who eagerly looked forward to embracing the role of older siblings. The family’s shared values of kindness, respect, and quality family time were beautifully reflected in the loving anticipation that filled the air.

Candid Moments and Family Values:

Cindy and Parsa emphasized their preference for pictures that felt organic and natural, avoiding an overly staged appearance. Their children, Mila and Luca, seasoned in the art of posing for professional photos, added a touch of playfulness to the session. Jokes and laughter filled the air, creating an atmosphere that resonated with the family’s core values.

As we moved through different groupings and poses, I couldn’t help but appreciate the genuine connection that defined this family. The maternity session became a celebration of not just Cindy’s radiant glow but also of the shared joy and love that bound this family together.

Choosing Looking Up Photography:

Cindy discovered Looking Up Photography online, seeking a photographer who could make the family picture-taking experience enjoyable and stress-free. Her preference for a quick and easy session aligned perfectly with my commitment to creating a relaxed and enjoyable environment.

As we wrapped up the maternity session, I felt grateful for the opportunity to capture this special time in the family’s life. The images we created together will serve as a timeless reminder of the anticipation, love, and joy that filled their home.

If you are ready to embark on your own journey of capturing family moments, whether it be maternity, newborn, or family sessions, reach out, and let’s create memories together.
