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.

Mothers Are Beautiful: Madisen's Maternity Glam

Madisen is my cousin and is over the moon with her new baby girl, Lucy Lennon. At her maternity portraits, she was absolutely glowing with excitement to meet her sweet new girl.

I will be photographing Madisen's wedding in July, and I can't wait to get my hands on that new baby. She's sure to be as gorgeous as her mother.

Mothers Are Beautiful: Momma To Be Maternity Glam

Mother's Day is just around the corner friends! I'll be featuring the most glamourous moms around this week on my blog with a special feature on Sunday, so be sure to check 

Meg is another fellow photographer and one of the funniest girls around. We went to high school together and she's just as insanely hilarious and sweet as she was ten years ago. The girl is lucky enough to live in sunny San Diego, so when we came back to AZ for a visit, I was so thrilled to take her maternity glam portraits.

Mommas-to-be are always just beaming with beauty (even if they're on their 2nd, 3rd, 4th or whatever number baby this is). Meg has a darling little man already and this new baby is going to have the best time with it's high energy, high style family.
