Summer Maternity Session by the Bow River in Calgary
Summer evenings in Calgary are pretty magical, with golden light, lush greenery and the flow of the Bow River making the perfect backdrop for photos. As a Calgary maternity photographer, I specialize in candid, lifestyle photography that feels natural and authentic. This recent summer session was a reminder of why I love capturing maternity so much.
Why Choose a Lifestyle Maternity Session?
Lifestyle photography is all about authenticity. It’s less about stiff poses, cheesy backdrops and more about real connection, movement and documenting the beautiful changes women’s bodies go through during pregnancy. this session by the Bow River in Calgary was a perfect example of how a candid approach creates timeless memories. From laughter to quiet moments of reflection, every frames tells a story of love, anticipation and the joy of waiting for baby to arrive.
Calgary is the Perfect Backdrop
We are lucky to have so many beautiful locations for photos in Calgary. The Bow River offers a serene and scenic setting for your maternity session. The warm hues of a summer sunset and the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape create a a peaceful and organic backdrop. I love the texture of the river in Calgary during summer, sandy riverbanks and wildflower dotted meadows add depth and warmth to the photos.
Tips For Your Summer Maternity Session in Calgary
Timing is Everything: Schedule your session for around 30 weeks of pregnancy, while you’re still feeling comfortable and confident. I always try to plan shoots during golden hour (early morning or late evening) for the softest and most flattering light.
Choose Comfortable Clothing: Flowy dresses, soft fabrics and neutral tones work beautifully to show off the shape of your body during pregnancy.
Focus on Connection: Don’t worry about posing, I will be there to help make sure that you look amazing. The most beautiful, candid moments come when you’re relaxed and having fun with your partner.
