Winter maternity portraits often turn out to be more colorful than I expect. In the first picture, the swath of green behind this gorgeous mama echoes the shape of her royal blue skirt draped on the forest floor. In the closer shots, you can appreciate how her smoky eye makeup is the same tones as the trees. And those sexy red lips and nails really pop!
The afternoon sun made some of the leaves remaining on the trees glow orange, which complemented the couple’s cool-colored wardrobe nicely. The diagonal angle of the fallen tree provided extra visual interest.
I love the contrast between the barren trees and the beautiful mother bursting with life. This is especially noticeable when she’s wearing the floral crown. The quiet stillness of this collection of photos is reminiscent of the waiting during pregnancy. I wish this loving pair all the best as they prepare for their little one, who is almost sure to have a head of thick, dark hair!

Schedule your maternity session with Jacqueline Belle Fleur!
There is nothing more gorgeous than expecting mamas, and I love capturing them! We always shoot outdoors in different pre-scouted locations each season. In the event of inclement weather, we will reschedule (it may have to be a weeknight — thank you for your flexibility!). Maternity sessions are typically held when moms are between 7 and 8 months pregnant, and include the following:
- 30-45 minute session and 15 carefully selected and fully edited images
- the base digital package — The Petal Collection (all hi-res digital files on a USB drive)
- two clothing changes for mom (partners are welcome to be in the photos in one outfit)
- use of any of the beautiful gowns and hairpieces in my collection (I can also make recommendations for hair, make-up and manicures once a session is booked.)
Feel free to browse my maternity gallery, and email me for more information or to schedule!
