Deciding between a studio or outdoor maternity session comes down to the style and story you want to tell. Of course both sessions are documented in my approach and aesthetic, but a few key differences between the two.

Studio maternity sessions offer a calm, private environment with soft, natural light and refined styling. My Long Beach studio is designed with multiple shooting areas, curated wardrobe options, and a cozy yet editorial feel. Studio sessions are timeless, intimate, and effortless, perfect if you want polished, fine art portraits with a focus on connection and detail. Studio sessions can be styled romantic, cozy, modern, even a touch of boho, that's the fun of being in studio, we can take it so many directions while staying within my aesthetic. 

Outdoor maternity sessions bring in the beauty of Southern California landscapes. There is something special about the soft glow of the beach at golden hour at my favorite beach in Orange County. Beach sessions have add movement to the setting, natural textures, and an organic storytelling element. They’re ideal if you envision your images surrounded by light, air, and nature.

No matter which you choose, my approach blends natural light, posing + direction to help you ease into the moments, and storytelling for portraits that feel both elevated and authentic. Serving families across Los Angeles, Orange County, you cant go wrong with either choice.
