There’s something extra special about photographing families as they grow. This Austin maternity session was filled with warmth, laughter, and all the beauty of early spring. The soon-to-be family of four brought their joy (and their beautiful Boston terrier!) to a golden-hour session that captured love in motion and the anticipation of new life.


A child kisses a pregnant woman's belly in a sunlit forest. The woman wears a white floral dress, and the child has a blue dress and jacket.

Their daughter stole the spotlight with her infectious smile and denim jacket, eagerly helping hold the ultrasound photos and showering mom’s belly with kisses. These candid, in-between moments are what make family photography so meaningful. We focused on natural interaction over posed perfection, and the result was a gallery full of genuine connection.

Set against a backdrop of Austin’s blooming bluebonnets and sun-dappled trees, this session was a perfect reminder that maternity photos don’t have to be stiff or overly formal. Instead, we let the little one explore, included the family pup in a few shots, and created space for the parents to connect, with each other and with the baby on the way.

Whether they were sitting in the grass, sharing a giggle, or holding onto the ultrasound printout with pride, every image tells a story. That’s the heart of what I do as an Austin maternity photographer: capture real families, in real moments, during a season they’ll want to remember forever.
