San Antonio Maternity Photographer
My style is natural and warm, focusing on authentic interactions, laughter, and the little moments in between. Maternity sessions include a blend of posed portraits to highlight your pregnancy as well as more candid moments between you and your loved ones.

02 | book
When you’re ready to book, fill out my inquiry form with the date you’re interested in, whether you have a location in mind, and let me know what type of session you’d like to book: maternity, newborn (Bump to Baby), Fresh 48, or Family.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to schedule a maternity session?
You should schedule your maternity photos during your 7th or 8th month, or 28-34 weeks.
Can I schedule my maternity and newborn photos at the same time?
Yes! When you select both sessions during the inquiry stage you can book both sessions at a discounted rate! All you need is your due date to book a newborn session.
Can I bring props?
I recommend keeping props to a minimum so you do not have to carry them around. Since my style relies less on poses and more on moments where you are interacting with your loved ones, props can get in the way or take up a lot of our time together. However, sonograms, a sign announcing your pregnancy, or a gift/shirt for your other child(ren) is totally okay.
Will you edit body parts, acne, teeth, scars, etc?
I do not alter one’s appearance in post beyond removing small blemishes that would disappear naturally within a week or two’s time. I will only remove acne, temporary scars, and other minor blemishes.
What happens if I need to reschedule because I’m not showing as much as I wanted or need to cancel because my baby arrived early or I’m placed on bed rest?
We can find another date for your session if you need to push it back a few weeks, just be prepared to have your session on a weekday or a different time of day. Reschedules at a studio requires an additional rental fee if the studio does not offer a refund.
If your baby arrives early or you need to cancel your session, we can use your retainer towards another session whether that be a newborn session, milestone session, or family session within a 6 month time period.
How many images do I receive?
As an all-inclusive photographer, I deliver all edited images that I deem worthy of being delivered. This is usually a minimum of 70 images in a gallery. All are available for download.
How far do you travel for sessions?
I will travel anywhere within the United States but require a travel fee. For locations that do not require an overnight stay, I charge a per-mile fee for locations outside a 50-mile radius of my zip code. For overnight stays within Texas, there is an $800 travel fee. For sessions outside of Texas, there is a $1,500 travel fee.
