"Mike's "Heartbeats" maternity photos are breathtaking. I almost wish I was pregnant again so I could have him take my photos." ~Heather Arellano-Photographer~

Maternity images are more than just showing your belly....They're about preserving the Miracle of your New Life.

Sessions can be with studio lighting/setup in the comfort of your own home at no extra charge.

Creating "mood" is what separates "Art" photography from everyday photographs. "Mood" is created by the subject, the background, and, most importantly, the lighting.

If you are interested in a Maternity session, you may also want to consider "Ready...Set...Grow".

"Ready...Set...Grow"

● The first session (Mom) will be 2-6 weeks before delivery. Done in an "Art" manner, the photo chosen to be the background will be turned to black & white. Since these photos will be the "Simplicity of Art", we will discuss how you wish to be photographed. Your comfort level is very important. If clothing is worn, I suggest wearing light and airy clothing or sheer material to best portray the beauty and joy of pregnancy. Of course, you can be photographed in any manner or attire you wish.

● The second session will be of your Newborn Child...preferably, just days old to 1-week old. You will have your choice of color or black & white images of your child.

● The third session will be of your child at 3-months old.

● The fourth, and final, session will be of your child at 6-months old.

When completed, your child may have a discounted photo session for each of his/her birthdays.
