In today's day and age, people are starting to become more and more comfortable with their bodies. Here is one of my favorite side belly shots complete with hand bra and tattoo!

Mommy and daddy on a park bench eagerly awaiting their twins. Green fields and palm trees, sunny blue skies and smiles, definitely a moment to remember.

There is a certain beauty in the simplicity of black and white photography. One would think that you can capture more detail in color but there is something to be said about the detail of every shade of gray. Here is a proud mommy-to-be cuddling her beautiful belly.

Do you walk around with all kinds of props all day just waiting for an opportunity for a photograph to arise? Of course not! When it come to props, we like to take a minimalist approach. Impromptu would describe our style well. Here are mommy and daddy sending a message to their soon to arrive bundle of joy! 

Let's face it, most portrait shots are posed no matter what anyone says about how candid the photographer is. The trick is to add a touch of creativity when it comes to the angles and lighting of your poses. Here is a photograph of mommy resting in the afternoon shade, sharing a moment of silent meditation with her baby.

Put a frame around this pic of mommy's belly and call it art! Daddy cradles mommy's belly while mommy holds daddy's hand in this photograph. You can almost hear him whispering into her ear: "I love you and I can't wait to meet our new baby"

Here's a cute picture of baby's new shoes! Mommy and daddy are in the distance undoubtedly thinking of baby's first steps and where his feet will carry him in the future. We've created life, lets put baby's best foot forward!

With so many things to do before baby comes, having a photo shoot can prove to be a very relaxing and rewarding experience. Most women take this time to reflect on all the beautiful changes their bodies have gone through.

Red, long known as the color of love, looks wonderful on TV and as it turns out in maternity photographs too! Did you see the heart hands on her belly? There's something about this shot that we really love!

Dad: "I'm gonna pretend I'm whispering something silly into your ear for the sake of this picture."

Ends up "actually" whispering something silly into moms ear.

Result: Mommy laughs uncontrollably, daddy does too! You can almost hear baby laughing too! :)

Photography is meant to capture a split second in time and forever immortalize it. In this photograph, expecting mom and dad share a moment of casual reflection that even doggy seems to be a part of.

Often regarded as part of the family, our pets should definitely be included in maternity photographs. This happy couple would seem incomplete if doggy wasn't included in mommy's belly shot. In fact, this pooch insisted on taking this picture!

Simplicity is the definition of attractive in this maternity photograph. A minimalist approach to capturing a picture that speaks volumes. Mommy's tattoo is peeking from her belly and she is scantily dressed in classy black which fades beautifully into the background.

Mommy and baby take a short rest during this maternity shoot. If you're from here, then you absolutely understand that sandy soil and palm trees are part of the landscape in Miami's most beautiful areas. This photograph was taken at South Pointe Park.

Why yes, yes they are! Mommy and daddy hold up baby's new converse to mommy's belly during this maternity photo session. Something tells us this baby is gonna be one cool kid!

In this maternity shoot, old world meets new at Miami's famous Vizcaya. Beautifully radiant new mommy-to-be shows off her baby bump amongst arches of coral stone and columns of Italian marble. This was an amazing day!

Doggy knows there's a baby on the way! We don't know how they know but one thing is for certain, there is no question that this doggy is eagerly awaiting his new human! C'mere momma! Lemme lick your belly! Woof! :)

The creative use of light is always a central focus when it come to any kind of photography. In this maternity session belly shot, a special light called a "beauty light" was used allowing us to capture a serene and almost angelic touch shared by mom, dad and baby.

Mommy bares it all in this elegant and tasteful black and white maternity photograph. Notice how the shadows accentuate the shape of mommy's belly! What a beautiful depiction of an expectant mother!

Here is a portrait of mommy doing a yoga pose. Hearts on her fingers and baby cuddles in her belly. A zen moment in maternity photography! Namaste little baby, namaste.

Beautiful couple on a beautiful maternity shoot at Ingraham Terrace Park in Coral Gables. I remember their excitement as this was their first baby, a cute little baby boy to be exact.

Cute little rescue dog turns out to be a great companion and protector during this belly photo session! It never ceases to amaze me just how in tune these little animals are with expectant mothers. She never left mom's side.

Have you heard that quote: "Simplicity is good for the soul"? Here is a beautiful portrait of mom's belly rendered down to just grayscale otherwise know as black and white. Photos like this make wonderful pieces of art in your home.

I love fashion, I love photography and I especially love photographing a fashionable mom-to-be. You can make maternity portraits fun and unique by incorporating your own bold jewelry pieces, in fact, I encourage it!

An elegant representation of the feminine figure. Using faint bursts of light in the right places during maternity shoots results in a striking image where highlights and shadows are delicately captured.

This maternity portrait has the perfect balance of light and dark. Artfully composed and beautifully posed by our mommy-to-be.

Mommy and daddy proudly displaying baby's first portrait! I always encourage my clients to use items of close personal significance to document in their portrait session.
