Morgan's Breezy Mountain Maternity Session | Calgary Maternity Photographer | Lace & Locket Photography

Morgan & Matt have got to be the most beautiful, funny, hilarious couple I've ever worked with. Actually all my clients are all of those things and that's why they're my clients. IT'S AMAZING. But we're talking about these fabulous folks. 

This session was scheduled back when it was +30 outside and we planned for smack in the middle of October with the hopes it would surely still be decent outside. Last year it was! Last year at this time it was +20! Well....this year it was windy. So very windy and chilly. The wind bit. Which was perfect for dress flow but not so much for anything else like us, freezing in an open area unsheltered by trees.

Every time this happens, I always feel awful for my clients out there in these dresses, but they always say the same thing when they get their sneak peeks and their galleries - it was so worth it! And that fills my heart and keeps me going! 

Morgan's makeup was done by the lovely Preet of Studio 150 makeup Artistry who has her own studio (but also travels!) located in Airdrie! All dresses in this gallery are owned by me & available free of charge to be used in your own booked maternity session! 

April Mountain Maternity Session | Lake Minnewanka | Mountain Maternity | Calgary Maternity & Newborn Photographer | Lace & Locket Photography

This was such a fun session! I have never met such a fun family! Ty messaged me only a couple weeks before her session was to take place and originally she wanted to just have a maternity session done in her home but soon changed her mind once she saw the mountain maternity sessions on my website. When we met in the mountains on this exceptional April day, it was love at first sight and magic was made! She was stunning in every dress I put her in and we laughed so much as she changed and the love between her and Jason was pure magic. I didnt have to tell them what to do or how to pose, they just set the stage with their emotions and it was amazing! 

At the end of the session Ty had such a great time she asked me to shoot her baby's newborn session when she arrived and we did it just last weekend. Like baby B was absolutely perfect. Watch for her session on the blog in a couple weeks !
 

Samantha's Winter Maternity Session | Calgary Maternity & Newborn Photographer | Mountain Maternity Session | Lace & Locket Photography

This session I had waited for since before Christmas. I was so excited and so pumped. I had planned out the locations ahead of time & figured out the poses I wanted to. This is why I always recommend booking your sessions with me as early as you can so that I have time to think about every aspect of creativity I can. 

The forecast called for -26 the day we were supposed to shoot but THANKFULLY it was warmer than that. NOT BY MUCH, but it was bearable, except for while we were on the lake, unprotected by a town or trees. But the images we caught were so stunningly gorgeous, it was well worth it! I ALWAYS bring an assistant with me to mountain maternity sessions to hold blankets, boots, jackets and anything else the client will need to stay warm, comfortable and dry, even cool if it's in the summer months! 

Sam got her hair & makeup done for this session by the lovely Artistry by Bobi. 
Her dress is from Pink Blush Maternity.
