Some families just have that effortless magic in front of the camera, and this sweet family is one of them. I’ve had the absolute joy of photographing both of their daughters as newborns, and now, we’re celebrating the arrival of their third little girl with a dreamy fall maternity session at Ballas Park in Wind Gap.

Golden Hour Glow & Cozy Fall Vibes 🍂✨
Fall is one of the most stunning times for maternity sessions, and this evening did not disappoint. The golden sunlight, rich autumn tones, and open fields at Ballas Park created the perfect backdrop for this family’s story. Mom looked stunning in her blue gown, flowing effortlessly with the breeze. The little girls were the sweetest in their matching velvet dresses, hugging their mama’s belly, already so in love with their baby sister.

Dad, of course, was the perfect mix of doting husband and girl-dad pro, making sure his girls (big and little) felt all the love. This family is always such a joy to work with—I swear, they could be in a magazine with how effortlessly beautiful they are together.

How to Prepare for a Maternity Session 📸

If you're expecting and considering a maternity session, here are some tips to make your photos just as magical:

1️⃣ Timing is Everything
The best time for maternity photos is between 28-34 weeks—far enough along to show off that gorgeous bump but not too close to your due date where you might feel uncomfortable.

2️⃣ Outfit Choice Matters
Mom’s stunning blue gown was a perfect example of how a flowy, form-fitting dress can highlight the bump while adding movement to the photos. Rich colors like deep jewel tones, neutrals, and soft pastels work beautifully in outdoor settings.

3️⃣ Make It a Family Affair
Including partners and siblings makes the session feel even more special! Whether it’s snuggles, belly kisses, or just playful giggles, those moments make for the best memories.

4️⃣ Choose a Scenic Location
A field at sunset, a wooded trail, or an open park (like Ballas Park!) can create a dreamy atmosphere. The warm light and fall foliage made this session feel straight out of a fairytale.

5️⃣ Relax & Enjoy the Moment
Some of the best photos come when you’re simply enjoying each other’s company. Play with your little ones, laugh with your partner, and let me capture the magic as it unfolds.

This family’s session was the perfect reminder of how beautiful maternity photos can be—not just to document a growing bump, but to celebrate the love and excitement of what’s to come. I can’t wait to meet their newest little girl soon and continue capturing their journey!
