Mothers Are Beautiful: Amanda Maternity Glam Portraits

I'm currently watching the Newborn Posing class on creativeLIVE and it is unreal how incredibly beautiful these newborn babies are and how proud all their mothers are when they see the images that Kelly Brown creates for them. Absolutely stunning work.

The thing that is so poignant about having a baby is how exhausting it is to bring a child into the world. No matter how many times you've done it, just remembering to brush your teeth and hair when you're pregnant or have just birthed a baby is a major accomplishment. Forget about putting on makeup or wearing something that makes you feel good. You're just trying to function not seeing anything under your belly or not sleeping.

That's why Maternity Glam shoots are one of my favorite things. You get to take a woman who's last priority is herself, and spoil her for a few hours and make it all about her and take the most beautiful images of her pregnant self she's ever seen.

Amanda was unreal to work with. Her and Dan were the nicest couple and so thrilled to meet their little Graham. The images perfectly reflected their personalities and the love they have for each other.
