Desert Maternity Session

I had a Desert Maternity Session about a month ago and I am still swooning over the images. Nisha and Aamir, soon to be first time parents, were traveling from New York for work. They decided that since the weather was perfect here in Arizona they wanted to take advantage of their trip and schedule a maternity session.

Nisha was about 28 weeks pregnant and just glowed in her Red Maternity Gown. I purchased this gown on Amazon and decided to take her to Papago Park in Tempe, Arizona for her session. Papago Park has quickly become one of my favorite photography spots. It has such a diverse landscape background. On one side you get greenery, desert views, and lake views. On the other side you get more desert and mountain views. It really is a beautiful place for any type of session.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING A BEAUTIFUL DESERT PHOTO SESSION, THE BEST TIME OF THE DAY TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED IS USUALLY THE FIRST HOUR AFTER SUNRISE AND AN HOUR BEFORE SUNSET. THERE ARE SEVERAL APPS THAT TRACK THE SUNSET AND SUNRISE AND YOU CAN USE THOSE TO TIME YOUR SESSION JUST RIGHT. GOLDEN HOUR PHOTOGRAPHY AS WE PHOTOGS CALL IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND VERY POPULAR RIGHT NOW. NISHA AND AAMIR WERE VERY SPECIFIC ABOUT WANTING GOLDEN HOUR PHOTOS SO WE MET 1 HOUR BEFORE SUNSET. WE WERE ABLE TO CAPTURE SOME BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS FOR THEM THAT THEY WILL CHERISH ALWAYS.

NISHA OPTED TO USE THE DRESSES FROM OUR MATERNITY CLIENT CLOSET. IT WAS CONVENIENT FOR HER DUE TO HER TRAVELING FOR THIS SESSION. I SUGGESTED A BEAUTIFUL RED DRESS AND A BLUE ONE TO REPRESENT HER SOON TO BE BABY BOY! THESE BOLD COLORS PHOTOGRAPHED BEAUTIFULLY IN THE DESERT. She looked absolutely gorgeous during her session.

below are some of my favorite images from this session.

Expecting?? I would love to capture your Maternity Session
