I really love outdoor maternity sessions and this was my first outdoor session of the season. It was in one of my favorite places to take pictures downtown Naperville along the river. I love the covered bridges there. Thanks guys for having me take pictures for you. I can't wait to meet the little guy when he arrives.

I am going to be making some exciting changes to Krista Ann Photography in the next month one of them will be a price increase. I know that is probably not so exciting for you guys but I have come to the conclusion that it has to be done with the time and editing I put into each picture. I will always include the disk of all the edited images for each client that will not change. If you book with me before the price increase I will charge my current pricing so schedule a session with me now.

What a cutie Baby C* was he was a little unsure of me posing him in the beginning and than he passed out and was wonderful. It was such a fun session I got so many cute pictures of him and his family. Did I mention before that I love my job well I really do. I get to cuddle and take pictures of newborns :) Thanks again guys for having me come into your home and take pictures for you I had so much fun and you are a wonderful family!

This was the first little one I got the pose with the hands up by the face. I was so excited! Baby K* was just so little and adorable. She was a great baby and would let me pose her however I liked. I had so much fun snuggling her. Thanks again guys for having me take pictures for you she is just beautiful.

I have a lot of maternity session coming up so I decided to share some of my experience with what looks good for a maternity shoot. The most asked question by far is what should I wear for my maternity session. Families never ask me what they should wear but mothers to be are always wondering.
First make sure to take time for yourself to get ready for your maternity session do your hair, makeup, and make sure your nails and toes are nicely done. I am not saying go get a manicure and pedicure but take the time to clean and trim them up they will be in a lot of the pictures more fingers than toes.
Tops: There are two types that look really cute a top with a gathered seam just below the bust or a tighter fitting tee. Also don't be afraid to wear a tight tank with a cardigan over the top you are welcome to wear as much or little clothing as you want.
Bottoms: The big key is to have some definition in where your belly begins and ends. This can also be done with posing itself but the pants can help:) Pants should either be bellow the belly or panel pants which go all the way up! The tops of the belly pants can be really noticeable so I might have you roll the panel down and under so that is can't be seen under your shirt. Jeans are really cute for maternity sessions as well as leggings.
Dresses: Again you want that definition there...you want your curves to show. Go for dresses that are tight throughout the body or that have a tie waist. Wrap dresses work great.
So in general have fun with it your partner and you don't have to be matchy matchy. Remember this day is about you and how beautiful you are pregnant! Show off your shape and don't cover it with baggy clothing. Have fun!! Here are a few examples of outfits I put together that I thought were fun!

I did this session on Dr. Seuss's birthday so of course I had to incorporate him somehow in a picture. This family was just wonderful and Baby A* did such a great job! He was such a cuddle bug and once he fell asleep he was so easy to pose. Thanks guys for having a session with me and letting me love on your little guy!
