As your Washington, DC maternity photographer, I am always delighted for the couples who get to document their maternity session in the spring. While the cherry blossoms in DC seem to get most of the attention, I think that spring is best enjoyed outside of the city. The new life in the fields and gardens is so symbolic for couples as they celebrate the new life they are anticpating. It’s such a lovely experience to be outdoors, with all the space you need, a quiet garden or field completely to yourselves. I love when my clients can truly relax during our time together and really take in the evening.

Though it was mostly a cloudy evening, the sun did come out for a few minutes here and there. I love the golden glow you see in some of these photographs! The pink of the redbuds adds such a sweet nod to this season of hope!

We even found a few magnolias still on the trees. I just love that golden glow you see coming in behind them.

This redbud tree and white picket fence provided the most beautiful little vignette!
