What is most exciting about working as a maternity portrait photographer in Lexington, KY is getting see families get created from the very beginning of the journey.

Being a maternity, baby and family portrait photographer for 4 years now I’ve gotten to be a part of first and second births. I’ve loved documenting milestones, like babtisms, birthdays and first steps, in a new families life. I’m always honored when a family chooses me to be their photographer. Moving to Lexington last year from Portland, OR, photography has been a special way for me to meet the many beautiful people of this community I now call home.

P.S. I started taking maternity portraits when I was pregnant with my own son. Photography was a way for me to celebrate this crazy thing that was happening to my body and also a way to preserve the memory of the baby-bump (which, turns out, my kiddo loves to see). Maternity portraits is one of those thing every mom really deserves to do- for herself and for her children. Check out some of the self portraits I did when Lucca was in my belly.
