When Romina first contacted me about outdoor maternity photography in Germantown, Maryland, she explained how picky her husband, Nima, is about photography, with his art and architectural background.  He loves photography and is an amateur photographer himself… and while he wasn’t on the phone with us on that first call, he wanted to speak with me as well, so we arranged for another call a few evenings later.

Romina and Nima decided to enroll in our 6-session baby photography plan, covering the maternity, newborn, 4-month, 6-month, 8-month, and 12-month milestones.  In the end, because winter was already here, they opted for a studio maternity photography session at our Germantown-Clarksburg photography studio instead of an outdoor maternity photography session.  They wanted Romina’s mom and sister to be part of the session as well, so we did various groupings of the four of them.  Romina & Nima love being silly and were happy to be “crazy” for the camera, which made our maternity photography session extra-fun.  Unexpectedly, our studio maternity photography session evolved into a little bit of a maternity boudoir session – gorgeous!

The thing that touches my heart every time we do a maternity photography session is the love in the air.  So much love!  Ivan is such a lucky baby, and he hasn’t even arrived yet.  At their maternity photography “reveal” / ordering appointment, Romina & Nima decided on a 16×16 custom-framed wall portrait of their favorite staircase maternity portrait, a 20-page custom-designed storybook album, and gift prints for family.  Check back later for photos of their finished wall portrait and artful album, and for Ivan’s newborn photography, as he’s already arrived at the time of this writing!

Expecting a new baby? Don’t miss the chance to document this special time in your life with maternity photography.
