March Maternity Session in Williamsburg: The Sabos

I recently had the pleasure of photographing a gorgeous March maternity session in Williamsburg for some dear friends from church. The Sabos are seriously the cutest couple, and their excitement about becoming parents was absolutely contagious!

Planning the Perfect March Maternity Session in Williamsburg

Winter maternity sessions can be tricky with unpredictable weather. However, this March maternity session gave us the best of both worlds – cozy indoor portraits and some beautiful outdoor moments when the weather cooperated.

The Sabos’ home provided the perfect backdrop for intimate portraits. Additionally, their personal space allowed them to feel completely comfortable, resulting in genuinely relaxed images.

Nursery Photos: A Beautiful Preview

One of my favorite parts of this session was capturing the Sabos in their carefully prepared nursery. These sweet moments serve as a beautiful precursor to the baby photos we’ll take in the same space soon.

There’s something magical about documenting a nursery before baby arrives. First, it shows all the love and preparation. Then, it creates a “before and after” story when paired with newborn images later.

That Gorgeous Winter Light for a March Maternity Session in Williamsburg

The light during this March maternity session was absolutely dreamy! Winter sunlight has a unique quality – it’s softer and comes in at a lower angle, creating the perfect glow through windows.

I always watch for that magical light that streams through windows. As a result, we captured some breathtaking silhouettes and backlit portraits that highlight mom’s beautiful profile.

The Joy of Photographing Friends

Working with couples we know from church adds an extra special dimension to sessions. The natural comfort level between us translated into authentic images that truly capture their personalities.

The Sabos’ happiness is absolutely infectious. In fact, their genuine smiles and laughter required very little prompting from me!

Looking Ahead to Newborn Photos

I’m already counting down the days until we get to photograph their little one! This March maternity session in Williamsburg was just the beginning of documenting their journey as parents.

The connection between these soon-to-be parents was evident in every frame. Therefore, I know their newborn session will be filled with even more love and emotion when they’re holding their little one.
