what to wear maternity


Hey guys and gals. This is my second attempt at giving you some ideas as to what to wear for sessions. I can barely dress myself much less help others so I hope this can help. :-)

This blog post is geared for the mother to be. I'm starting to have more and more inquiries for maternity sessions. I know from past experience with friends and family that it is hard to find cute and nice fitting clothes while pregnant. so I hope this helps.

If you are looking at these and not pregnant the rules are the same.
1) keep it simple
2) no loud patterns
3) when in doubt just coordinate your colors. (don't have you and/or families outfits all one color)
4) nothing to tight or to loose
5) try not wear the same color as your surroundings. example; if you are outside in a grassy area dont wear green, if you are near lot of blue, don't wear blue... you will blend in. :-)

6) STIRPS... if you most, make them small and not to contrasty. example dark blue and white stripes will make you dizzy when looking at photos. Its weird. I don't want my photos to make you sick to your stomach. :-)
Feel free to click on the photos to take you to polyvore where you can see more details about the clothes.

I found Oldnavy/Gap, Mothercare, and Nelly to have some of my faves at a good prices.

Enjoy

Ps. you can see my love for flats. Plus I know your not "suppose" to wear heels. Most of these outfits can be replaced with heels/wedges if you feel the need.

Emilee and Jerry Gainesville engagement

 Emilee and Jerry are truly one of the best couples I have ever meet and photographed.  So natural with one another and... I mean really. Does Emilee have one bone in her body that people just doesn't want to hug and be friends with for the rest of their life?

We originally had to reschedule for rain and then almost got rained out again during our session, but we got lucky, and it waited till we were done.

And I just have to say, I love it when couples can think of meaningful things to incorporate into a session. Like there love for scrabble, there lunch time walks in the park, and Emilee's love for the theater.

Gah soooo cute together... and guys "get a room already ;-)"
