Raleigh Maternity Photographer

Pregnancy is a beautiful season, a time in life that deserves to be documented. Your maternity photos freeze this time of sweet anticipation of what's to come and will one day bring you right back to those wondrous weeks of eagerly awaiting your precious new arrival.

 

Capture the wonder, anticipation, and delight of this season of life with simple, elegant maternity photography to cherish for a lifetime. You're welcome to borrow outfits, drapes, and simple props from our studio wardrobe, and I'll guide you head to toe into flattering poses throughout.

 

As a top Raleigh maternity photographer for over 15 years, I've had the honor of photographing hundreds of growing families in the Triangle. Don't miss capturing your love and excitement for your new baby!

Your Maternity Photography Experience

We'll plan your maternity photo session for sometime between 28-34 weeks of pregnancy, when you have a nicely defined bump but are still moving around comfortably.

 

I recommend 2-3 outfits or looks for your session. I have an ever-growing wardrobe of pretty, flowy dresses, as well as robes, drapes, and other accessories and adornments that you're welcome to use. I have a few shirts for dads-to-be as well. And I recommend taking time to pamper yourself before your session with one of my recommended professional hair & makeup artists.

 

During your session, you'll be standing, kneeling, sitting, and laying down, but let me know of any special concerns you may have so we can avoid anything uncomfortable. Generally, maternity sessions will last about an hour to an hour and a half.

 

Within two weeks of your session, your gallery will be ready! You'll order a collection containing digital images and a print credit that you can use toward luxurious heirloom albums, gorgeous framed fine art prints, prints for the office, gifts for grandparents, and more from my favorite professional printing labs!

 

You spend a lot of time taking care of everyone around you - now let me take care of you! I'll be there to guide you through your experience every step of the way.

Kind Words

I recently had the pleasure of working with Christy Johnson Photography for my maternity photos, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the first consultation to the final delivery of the images, Christy was a true professional.

 

I wholeheartedly recommend Christy for anyone looking to capture life's precious moments. Her talent, professionalism, and friendly approach make her a standout choice for maternity photography. I'm grateful to have these beautiful images to remember this significant chapter in my life. Looking forward to having her shoot our newborn photos in a few short weeks.
