Embracing New Beginnings: Jessika’s Maternity Session at Brushy Creek Lake Park

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure to capture Jessika’s maternity pictures, immortalizing the tremendous amount of love for her growing, first baby girl, Fae. Jessika is a wife to Nick and mom to the cutest little 3-year old boy and soon-to-be big brother, Dean. Though I love capturing photos of mom only, there is something so special about incorporating the whole family in your maternity portraits. Let’s talk about those precious shots with Jessika and little Dean! The giggles, the little kisses, the look of love on Jessika’s face looking at her first born with the anticipation of soon seeing him hold his baby sister. These memories are so worth capturing and be cherished forever!

I also had so much fun working with Jessika to plan her maternity session. Jessika is a wedding planner so you can only imagine how well-versed she is with planning and styling! Preparing my clients ahead of their photo session is one of my non-negotiables to ensure that their pictures turn out exactly how they envision them. For that reason, all of my sessions include a complimentary client welcome and style guide with lots of tips on what to wear not only for mom but the whole family! It includes plenty of examples along with links to shops where you can find similar outfits. Jessika went one step further and sent me a couple of style boards to help her choose! Together we landed on a beautiful pink midi dress from one of my favorite and most recommended shops for mothers, Pink Blush Maternity. From there, we were able to coordinate some cute outfits for dad and big brother, and voilĂ !

Check out below some highlights of Jessika’s gorgeous maternity gallery!
