WHY PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS?

Professional photos matter because they hold time still. They capture fleeting moments and turn them into something you can return to again and again. That kind of magic never fades. You are stepping into one of life’s most meaningful seasons. Motherhood. Whether this is your first baby or another chapter in a story already unfolding, growing life is sacred work. It deserves to be documented beautifully, artistically, and authentically. These photographs are meant to live far beyond today. For you, for your child, for the generations that follow. These images aren’t just for you. 🤍

Allow Shutter & Bloom Photography to capture your glow during this season of deep love and transformation. Together, we’ll create images that reflect you honestly. The tenderness, the strength, the overwhelming abundance of love you’re holding right now.

Shutter & Bloom offers a thoughtfully curated client closet, including maternity gowns that can be adjusted to virtually any color in editing. Many of the dresses shown below are available for your session and Jessica also offers discounts for dresses given to the studio!

what to expect

Jessica’s approach is intentional and personal. Every image is crafted to feel dreamy, cinematic, emotive, and true to you. From the very beginning, we plan your session together. Location, wardrobe, mood, and vision are all thoughtfully discussed so your session feels aligned with what you’re dreaming of.

During your session, you’ll be gently guided and fully supported. Jessica brings years of experience posing all body types, using prompts that encourage natural movement, soft connection, and genuine emotion. She watches closely for the quiet in-between moments too. The laughs, the glances, the pauses. Often, the most beautiful images live there.

After your session, your images are carefully edited and delivered in a private online gallery where you can download your selections and shop through Shutter & Bloom’s exclusive professional print labs. A print release is included with your images as well.
