Artistic Studio Maternity Portraits: My Specialty

In the comfort of my private studio, I craft each session to reflect your unique story using a palette of light and shadows. Studio maternity photography is where I shine—I love manipulating light to create a range of atmospheres, from dramatic silhouettes to softly lit, tender moments. You have the flexibility to choose from various backgrounds and lighting styles that best fit your vision.

Style Your Session with Elegance and Comfort
Whether you're envisioning a casual look with jeans and an open shirt, or a more formal attire with a flowing gown and elegant accessories, I’ll help you look and feel your best. Remember to arrange your hair and makeup with our nearby partner, KiSSandMaKeUp, to complete your stunning look.

During our session, we'll typically explore two outfits to capture different facets of your personality and style. I include one gown rental in my Full-Length Maternity sessions, taking care of all the details to ensure you have a beautiful, worry-free experience.

If you have something special from your own wardrobe or a new purchase, I’m here to help coordinate your outfits perfectly with our selection of hand-painted fabric backdrops and timeless, neutral paper backgrounds. We also have a beautiful NEW Light Wall that mimics window light, which can create gorgeous, backlit, and casual lifestyle portraits!

Celebrate with Loved Ones

We'll focus on capturing breathtaking portraits of you alone, celebrating the beauty and strength of your pregnancy. If your spouse or partner is part of this beautiful journey, I’d love to include them in the portraits as well. And if you have older children eager to be part of this special moment, they are more than welcome to join in the photos. One of the great advantages of studio photography is that we are not at the mercy of the weather, ensuring that your session is comfortable and controlled, no matter the season.

At The Flash Lady Photography, every session is an opportunity to create timeless art that celebrates your maternity experience.

Let’s capture this special time in your life with elegance and joy, creating memories that will be cherished forever.

Embrace the Beauty of Nature: Outdoor Maternity Session

There are countless reasons to choose an outdoor setting for your maternity photos. Perhaps you’re expecting during a particularly beautiful time of year, or you have a stunning gown that would look incredible against a natural backdrop. Maybe you have a bustling family with active older siblings who thrive in open spaces. Whatever your reason, an outdoor session can beautifully capture the essence of this special time.

Choosing the Perfect Location
Our state of Connecticut is blessed with diverse natural scenery—whether you’re drawn to the tranquility of the beach, the lushness of a park, the serene flow of a river, or the rustic paths of a trail. If there’s a place that holds special meaning for you and your family, I’d love to explore it for your session. I have a list of gorgeous locations we can choose from, each offering its unique charm and beauty.

Involving Your Loved Ones
While the focus will primarily be on you and your beautiful growing belly, I warmly welcome spouses, partners, and older siblings to join in the session. It’s a wonderful opportunity for family bonding and to make everyone feel involved in welcoming the new member of your family. I strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone can feel comfortable and cherished—ensuring that the older children know they are just as important as the new arrival.

Planning for the Perfect Outdoor Session
Opting for an outdoor session means embracing a bit of adventure. I recommend being flexible with scheduling to accommodate weather changes and choosing locations that are safe and accessible for everyone involved. Rest assured, I’ll guide you every step of the way, ensuring that you are comfortable and relaxed, allowing us to capture the most beautiful and natural moments.
Outdoor maternity photography isn’t just about taking pictures; it’s about creating a magical experience that transforms this fleeting time into lasting memories. Let’s capture the natural beauty of your maternity journey in a setting that’s as breathtaking as this milestone deserves.

Bringing the Photography Studio to Your Home

If you're seeking a more personal and intimate maternity photography experience, then lifestyle maternity photography at your place might just be the perfect choice for you.
Lifestyle maternity sessions allow me to bring my photographic expertise into the comfort and familiarity of your living spaces. This style is all about capturing your natural maternal glow in the environment where you’ll be nurturing your new baby.

A Personal Touch in Familiar Surroundings
Photographing your maternity session at home offers a unique opportunity to integrate personal elements into each shot. Whether it's the nursery you’ve lovingly prepared, your cozy master bedroom, or a sunlit corner of your living room, these familiar backgrounds add a layer of intimate detail that studio or outdoor settings simply cannot replicate. It’s wonderful to see how different spaces in your home can reflect your personal style and emotional warmth.

Casual and Relaxed, Yet Stylish
Most clients prefer to wear something casual for their at-home sessions, perhaps accented with a splash of their favorite color to bring vibrancy into the photos. This relaxed approach not only ensures you are comfortable but also helps portray a more genuine and unguarded essence of your maternity journey. I’m here to collaborate with you on choosing the perfect outfits that will look best on camera and compliment your home’s aesthetics.

Seamless and Stress-Free Preparation
Planning for an in-home session is all about simplicity and ease. I’ll guide you through preparing your space, suggesting minor adjustments and tidy-ups to ensure the backgrounds are uncluttered and welcoming. This preparation guarantees that each photograph captures you and your home at its best, highlighting the serene beauty of your maternity phase.

Why Choose Lifestyle Maternity Photography?
Choosing to have your maternity photos taken at home is perfect for those who prefer not to travel to the studio or who desire a more personal backdrop for their photos. It's a wonderful option if you want the session styled in a very personal way or if you're looking for the comfort and convenience of not leaving your home.
Lifestyle maternity photography is not just about making beautiful pictures; it’s about making these pictures a true reflection of this special time in your life. Let me capture this brief, beautiful moment in a space that holds meaning for you. Contact The Flash Lady Photography today, and let’s plan a warm, welcoming home session that you’ll look back on with fondness forever.

I will never get my pics done by someone else. Only Kristin! She is so amazing, super kind hearted, and has excellent patience. She made me feel extra comfortable and assured me that my family and I was doing great. She took my maternity shoot which included my family and they all came out absolutely beautiful. Another life long customer!

I was looking for a photographer in Newington for a maternity shoot and I am so happy I found Kristin. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and the quality of the photos and work that she puts into it shows how talented she is. She is very passionate at was she does and that shines through her photos that she takes.

We decided to have photos done with Kristin after seeing her portfolio and her Google reviews, and her five stars are well-deserved! Her lifetime plan (three sessions in one year) works so well for maternity, newborn, and first birthday; we've had our maternity and newborn shots done and they both turned out gorgeously.
