About two weeks after your session, we'll meet (virtually or in-person) for your image reveal. This is where you'll see your photos for the first time, choose your favorites, and decide how you'd like to enjoy them through albums, wall art, and digital images.

Your images deserve more than just a screen—they deserve to be experienced.
From handcrafted albums to custom wall art and fine prints, each product is designed to preserve your session in a way that feels tangible, timeless, and uniquely yours. These are pieces you can hold, revisit, and treasure for years to come.
I recommend booking your maternity session early in your second trimester to ensure availability. Since my calendar often books 1–2 months in advance, reaching out early is the best way to secure your preferred session date.
The ideal time to photograph your maternity session is between 30–36 weeks. That way, you've popped enough for us to see that beautiful baby bump, but you're not so far along that you're feeling uncomfortable.
Of course, every pregnancy is different, so we'll choose a date that feels right for you and your pregnancy.
Maternity sessions typically take place in my Red Bank studio, where we have everything needed to create beautiful, editorial-inspired portraits in a comfortable, private setting.
If another location better complements the overall aesthetic of your session, we can certainly arrange that. During the planning process, we'll choose the setting that best fits your vision and the overall style of your session. Additional location fees may apply.
Absolutely. Your maternity session is about celebrating this chapter of your family's story. Partners and children are always welcome to be part of your session, and we'll create a beautiful mix of images together as well as portraits that focus just on you.
After booking, you'll receive a detailed wardrobe guide to help you choose pieces that photograph beautifully and complement the style of your session. During the planning process, we'll also go over your wardrobe together and select the looks that best fit the vision for your session.
Yes. Every image you receive is individually retouched with a natural editing style. My goal is to create beautiful, timeless portraits that still look authentically like you.
Yes. Hair and makeup services are included with every Maternity session. Together, we'll create a look that complements your features, wardrobe, and the overall vision for your session.

REVIEW NO. 1 of 1
I had such a wonderful experience with Brandi! Brandi easily accommodated the switch to a maternity photoshoot. Everything was seamless from booking a date to what kind of photos I wanted to picking out the final photos for the album. She’s easy to talk to and very friendly. The hair and make-up artists also made me feel pampered and put together (especially for being 34 weeks pregnant!). The photos we received are gorgeous and we’ve received so many compliments. I highly recommend booking any kind of photoshoot with her, you won't regret it!

This is a season worth remembering.
Between preparing for your baby and navigating all the changes that come with pregnancy, it's easy to stay focused on what's next. This session is an opportunity to pause for a moment and celebrate where you are right now.
The anticipation, the excitement, the connection, and yes, even the beautiful chaos of it all. These are the moments you'll want to hold onto long after this chapter has passed.
