10 Tips to Prepare for Your Maternity Photoshoot in Lynchburg, VA

If there’s one thing I’ve learned as both a mom and a Lynchburg maternity photographer, it’s this: pregnancy is a fleeting season. No matter how you’re feeling, you’ll never regret having beautiful photos that document any season of your family’s story, but this one is especially special. Whether you’re dreaming of outdoor maternity photos in Lynchburg or a cozy, in-home lifestyle session, I want to help you prepare so your experience feels effortless and your photos become keepsakes you’ll treasure forever.

Winter is my favorite time of year to shoot at the field. The location of this field is in Bedford, VA and when the sun hits just right, the space glows with a soft texture that’s almost angelic! It just lights me up and I get so excited while shooting! :)

I had the honor of photographing this beautiful family for a maternity session celebrating their fourth daughter’s coming arrival!

We started the session inside in the studio to accommodate their young daughters and help to limit their time outdoors in the colder temperatures.

If it seems a little early for maternity pictures, I’ll confess. I broke my own rules and scheduled our family maternity session wayyyy before I was 30 weeks along.

But my heart was set on beach portraits, so I justified my rule-breaking pretty quickly.

It’s not often I have the opportunity to photograph a maternity session in the studio (located in Bedford, VA) so I was SO excited when Brittany and Travis requested this location for their session with me. The unpredictable weather and cold temperatures had us all grateful for the warm studio on this wintery day!
