Some stories come full circle.
I met this sweet couple from Windsor, CO, at a client and friend’s kiddo’s birthday party. A year later, I’m now getting to document their maternity journey—and soon, their newborn story too.
As a Fort Collins maternity photographer, these are the moments I love most. When clients become friends and their sessions become part of a family’s story, not just a photo gallery.
This session was full of light, love, and emotion. From soft glances between the couple to the joyful chaos of their toddler—this was a session about connection, growth, and the quiet anticipation of welcoming baby number two.
This couple wanted something timeless—pregnancy pictures that felt like them.
No stiff posing or forced smiles—just warm, natural photos that tell a true story. Mom selected two beautiful gowns from my maternity client closet, both soft and flattering.
One added gentle movement in the breeze, while the other created a peaceful, intimate mood.
Their toddler stole the show more than once, resting gently on mama’s belly and reminding us all that these moments—these fleeting days as a family of three—are what maternity family photography is really about.
When planning your pregnancy photoshoot in Fort Collins, the right setting makes all the difference.
Here are a few of my favorites (and most requested by clients)—all within 25 minutes of Fort Collins:
Each location brings something different, and I help you choose what best fits your style, the season, and your vision for the session.
Including your toddler in your maternity photo session adds so much meaning.
It’s the way they fit perfectly over your baby bump or how their small hands rest where your heart already knows your next baby will be.
As parents, you hold onto those little in-between moments—the way you look at the one who made you a mom or dad, as you navigate the journey of motherhood, while wondering how similar or different your next baby might be.
These portraits capture that beautiful transition—the space between who you are now and the family you’re about to become.
As a maternity photographer in Fort Collins, I offer a fully customized, stress-free experience designed around you and your family.
Here’s what to expect:
Every detail is considered, so you can focus on being present with the people you love most.
Maternity photography is more than documenting your growing bump—it’s about remembering how this season feels.
For many Colorado families, these images become part of their story, helping them look back on a time filled with anticipation, connection, and quiet joy.
Whether it’s the way your toddler wraps their arms around your belly or the moment you and your partner pause to wonder who this next baby will be, these photographs hold meaning that deepens over time.
They aren’t just for now—they’re keepsakes for the future, reminding you of what it felt like to become a parent all over again.
The best time for maternity photos is between 28 and 34 weeks.
Your bump has a beautiful shape, and you’ll still feel comfortable enough to move, snuggle, and walk during your session.
Booking early ensures:
Spring and summer tend to fill quickly, especially for evening golden hour sessions.
This Windsor family chose one of my Bump to Baby collections, which includes both maternity and newborn sessions with a consistent, modern aesthetic.
As a newborn photographer Fort Collins CO families return to year after year, I offer:
It’s the perfect way to tell your full story—from belly to baby—with intention, ease, and a style that never goes out of date.
