Choosing how to document your pregnancy is such a personal and exciting decision. Whether you’re drawn to the fine-art style of a studio session or the natural beauty of the outdoors, both options offer something truly special. I offer both Fine Art Studio Maternity Sessions and Outdoor Maternity Sessions in the Jacksonville FL, Kingsland GA, and surrounding areas, so let’s talk about the differences and how to decide which is the best fit for you.

Fine Art Studio Maternity Sessions

Studio sessions are all about simplistic beauty, emotive styling, and a touch of luxury. These sessions are carefully styled, with a focus on celebrating you during this powerful season of motherhood.

You can choose from two packages:

Exclusive Fine Art Maternity Session

• On-site professional hair & makeup
• Approx. 2-hour session
• 3–5 styled sets
• Full digital gallery (all final images included)
• Access to my curated client closet
• Option to include your spouse and/or children

Full Fine Art Maternity Session

• Approx. 2-hour session
• 3–5 styled sets
• Access to client closet
• Your choice of 15 final digital images
• Option to include your spouse and/or children

Studio sessions are perfect if:

• You love high-end, editorial-style portraits
• You want an air conditioned space without worrying about the weather
• You prefer a fine art look with dramatic lighting, draping fabrics, or styled sets

Outdoor Maternity Sessions

If you’re dreaming of golden light, soft breezes, and gorgeous scenic backdrops, an Outdoor Maternity Session might be more your style. These sessions are more relaxed, natural, and capture the connection you have with the ones you love most.

Outdoor sessions include:

• Approx. 1-hour session
• An outdoor location of your choice
• A full digital online gallery

They’re ideal if you:

• Prefer candid, natural moments
• Want to include your family in a more laid-back setting
• Love golden hour lighting and seasonal beauty

✨ Bonus: If you choose to have your session done in my neighborhood, which offers lush greenery, dreamy golden light, and a beautiful natural setting, you’ll receive $50 off your session!
