The Experience
This one is for you.
I believe every woman deserves one day where she feels like the most beautiful version of herself. Pregnancy just happens to be the reason we met.
Come get dressed, get pampered and enjoy being the center of attention for a change. Every detail is planned so you can relax, feel confident and leave with something beautiful to hold onto.
You are not expected to know how to pose. You are only expected to show up.
We take care of the rest.

Meet Monica
The woman behind the experience.
“I love watching a woman remember who she is.”
For more than a decade, I have photographed women during some of the biggest moments of their lives. Many arrive feeling nervous, unsure how to pose or convinced they are not photogenic.
Then the music starts. The wardrobe comes together. We laugh. I guide every movement. And little by little, she begins to see herself differently.
That is why I created this experience—not only so you leave with beautiful images, but so you remember exactly how beautiful you felt.

Before You Ask
Everything you need to know.
When should I schedule my maternity session?
Maternity sessions are best photographed between weeks 27 and 32, when your bump is beautifully defined and you are still comfortable enough to move through the session with ease. I accept a limited number of sessions each month, so booking early is recommended.
Where will my session take place?
All photo sessions take place at my private studio located just past downtown South Bend, Indiana, at 120 S. Taylor Street, South Bend, IN 46601.
What is your photography style?
My style is elegant and classic with a fashion-inspired twist. Client ideas are welcome when they align with the style of photography I offer.
Do I need to bring my own wardrobe?
Your session includes access to maternity gowns, fabrics and accessories for three looks. After booking, you will receive a preparation guide outlining anything you should bring.
Are hair and makeup included?
Yes. Every maternity session includes a professional makeup artist and simple hair styling so you can arrive, relax and enjoy being taken care of.
Do I need to know how to pose?
Not at all. I guide every pose, hand placement and expression throughout the session. Most clients arrive nervous and quickly realize they never had to know what to do.
Can my partner be included?
Yes. Partners are welcome, and we can create images together while still making sure you have time to be celebrated on your own.
Will my images be retouched?
Professional retouching is included on all final ordered images. Blemishes, stretch marks and temporary imperfections can be softened while keeping you recognizable and beautifully yourself.
How much is the maternity experience?
Because the experience begins with a conversation, full investment details are provided during your complimentary consultation. This gives us time to talk through what is included, answer your questions and make sure the experience is the right fit for you.
When do I choose my images?
After the photo session is complete, you will have the opportunity to review and order your favorite images at the end of your session.
