Maternity photos don’t always go as planned—but sometimes, that makes them even more meaningful.

When life doesn’t go as planned

Take Rylee, for example. She had the most beautiful vision for her maternity shoot: glam outfits with a 70’s vibe, hair and makeup, and the Supposey Car. But late in her pregnancy, she was admitted to the hospital, and suddenly all of those plans felt like they had slipped away.

Instead of canceling, we decided to bring the glam to her. And honestly? It couldn’t have turned out more perfect. When I showed up to her hospital room, Rylee was stunning in her gorgeous dress, glowing in every sense of the word. Even inside those hospital walls, she radiated strength, joy, and that undeniable mama-to-be sparkle. The session was filled with laughter, little moments of quiet excitement, and of course, some truly stunning photos!

Celebrate your season

That’s the thing about a glam maternity shoot—it’s all about celebrating this season in a way that feels fabulous to you. Maybe that’s a sequin gown that catches the light, a flowing dress that dances in the breeze, or even a bold lip and perfectly styled waves. Glam doesn’t have to mean over-the-top; it just means elevating your look so you feel radiant and feel confident in front of the camera.

Her photos are proof that maternity sessions don’t have to look one certain way. They can be fun, glamorous, and uniquely yours—whether that’s on Pensacola beach or right where life has you in the moment.

Motherhood is powerful, beautiful, and worth celebrating, no matter the setting. And Rylee? She absolutely rocked it.

If you’re expecting and dreaming of maternity photos that capture your personality, your style, and your story—glam and all—I’d love to create something special for you. Let’s make magic happen, wherever your journey takes us.
