There’s something really special about photographing pregnancy. It’s such a short season of life, but it’s full of change, excitement, and so much quiet strength.
Gibson Pond Park—a little gem in the Midlands—has quickly become one of my favorite spots for maternity sessions. It has a great mix of scenery: quiet wooded areas, peaceful water views, and that lovely old dam that adds something extra to each photo. One of the best things? You don’t have to walk far to get to the pretty spots, which is perfect for expecting mamas.
Pregnancy truly is a miracle. A woman’s body is doing something amazing—growing and carrying new life. It’s powerful, it’s beautiful, and it deserves to be remembered.
Life moves fast, and it’s easy to skip past these big moments. A maternity session gives you a chance to slow down and soak it all in—to celebrate your body and the little life growing inside. At Gibson Pond Park, with the sun shining through the trees or bouncing off the water, it’s easy to feel calm, connected, and present.
Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, this time is worth capturing. And trust me—your future self (and your kids!) will be so glad you did.
