My favourite photo sessions are maternity shoots! There is so much to love about them. The mother-to-be is glowing. The beautiful baby bump. The way the partner looks at the woman who is growing his child in her belly. There is so much love, anticipation and joy during these sessions. And Tiffany and Brandon were the perfect examples of why I love these photoshoots so much.
I loved planning this session with Tiffany. When someone puts thought, effort and excitement towards the session, you always know it’s going to go well! We chatted about outfits and locations months before the shoot. We had originally planned to do the photos at the Abbotsford Tulip Festival but unfortunately, due to Covid - 19 the festival was closed this year, but Boundary Bay is a very good second option :)
Tiffany looked amazing wearing a dress from one of my favourite online maternity shop Acmami and her flawless makeup was done by Justyne. T + B were so lovely and kind and so easy to work with in front of the camera. It was such a pleasure to photograph both of them. Tiffany was glowing the whole time and the only instruction I gave to Brandon was ‘you’re job as the Dad is to just look at your beautiful wife the whole time’ and he totally nailed it. As the photographer, it's my job is to pose and instruct the the whole time, but these two often created the most amazing candid moments for me to capture. While we were out in the water, Brandon started to dance with Tiffany just like they had on their wedding day. Seriously SO special to capture.
At the end of the session both T + B headed down to the water to finish off with some beautiful water shots. The tide was just perfect to walk out and we had the most amazing pastel pink sunset to match Tiffany’s dress. What a perfect end to a perfect night.
Dear T + B, thank you for coming to Tsawwassen for your maternity photos. I’m happy our second choice shoot location was so dreamy for you on the night we took photos! I’m looking forward to meet baby soon now and do it all over again with your newborn photos :)
