Jacksonville Maternity Photographer
We photographed the Thompson’s wedding years ago and now they are having their second child. Wow… time flies!
Capturing special moments in people’s lives is one of our greatest gifts as photographers. As a team we are maternity, newborn, and family photographers dedicated to serving the people of Jacksonville and Saint Augustine. Florida is our home and we are proud to be Jacksonville photographers. As such we pride ourselves in knowing the hidden gems of the area that are perfect for any family or couple’s personal style.
Walter Jones Historical Park
This historic 10 acre park was founded in 1994 and is a charming place for engagement, family or maternity pictures. The park offers a diverse array of backgrounds for photos. It has lots of greenery as well as numerous types of flowers that look stunning in photographs. Additionally, little children love to pick the flowers and have fun which makes for great candid shots with big smiles. Apart from the lively flora, is the historic white house that sits in the center of the park. We often find ourselves posing families at the back and front of the house for pictures, but occasionally we’ll have kids who run around the place. Their enthusiasm is a joy to photograph naturally.
Maternity Picture Ideas
There are definitely some classic maternity picture poses like resting the hands on the belly. But there are also some other creative shots that we enjoy taking. For example, we love overlaying the parents hands on the baby bump to create a heart. Not only is this cute, but it symbolizes all the love that the parents have for their unborn child. Pictures where an older sibling is kissing their mother’s stomach is adorable. When we photograph a maternity session with other big brother/sister, we make sure to do this pose. It is always a crowd pleaser.
As adorable as their daughter was, we made sure to get pictures without her. We find it equally important to get photos of just the couple during a maternity session, as well as beautiful pictures of the pregnant mother-to-be.
I don’t know if you can tell but it was pouring rain in these last series of photographs. Florida weather is so unpredictable, but luckily is didn’t start raining until the end of this maternity session. We had enough time to take shelter under the house, and were still able to keep taking gorgeous pictures.
