Calgary Central Library Maternity Portraits | Calgary Maternity Photographer | Calgary, Alberta

---

When J first messaged me to do her Calgary Maternity Portraits in the Calgary Central Library, I wasn’t sure about it. If you’ve been watching my work for a while, you’d know it’s not my jam to do maternity portraits inside. Buuuuuut I love a challenge. So hey. Lettuce do it.

It was the beginning of Stampede and I wasn’t sure what that would look like. Also, driving downtown gives me the absolute heebie jeebies so I thought what better time to meet than FIRST THING IN THE MORNING at 9 am. I mean, the drive was fine, there were a lot of folks downtown already BUT…none of us participating in this session were exactly functional. hahah!

But this session was so fun! It was such a cool location, dad is into Calgary architecture and 9 am was a good time to start because it was quiet at first, not a lot of other people around right away. The light was beautiful and we got such a unique set of images from this location, there are so many different spots that can provide a completely different feel than the last.

Moral of the story, this location is a win.ALLLLL the sessions at the Calgary Central Library!

Fall Maternity Mini Sessions | Lace & Locket Photo | Calgary Maternity Photographer | Airdrie Maternity Photographer

If you’ve been wanting to book a maternity session for a while but something’s been holding you back - now is the time! These mini sessions are designed to capture your beautiful bump against a stunning fall backdrop, before it blows away with the wind for another year. Normally when folks book their maternity session in around September/October it’s either still too green or the wind comes one day and just blows all the leaves away before we even get a chance to capture it! Fall lasts but a moment here in Alberta.

These sessions allow you to capture your bump (with your family included- or not if you want!) and give you the ability to spoil yourself, treat yourself this pregnancy with some gorgeous photos. There is an option to add on Hair & Makeup, purchase your entire gallery or just keep it simple.

Maternity gowns will be reserved ahead of time so that gowns are only being worn once to adhere to Covid sanitization guidelines. This means that some gowns will be reserved before others so if there’s one you’re interested in, get on messaging me to reserve it ASAP! Once your time slot has been selected you will get a link to the maternity gowns available.

Summer Sunset Maternity | Lace & Locket Photo | Fish Creek Park, Calgary | Calgary Maternity Photographer

This was SUCH a fun session! We shot just before sunset at Fish Creek Park in Calgary and it was a gorgeous night. J brought a dress of her own to start and it was mustard coloured and gorgeous! The pink, sequin and black gowns are in the Lace & Locket Client Closet which you can visit here.

I can’t wait to Photograph this stunning couple’s adorable babe in September, it’s sure to be as fun and gorgeous as these folks were at their maternity session!

Maternity at the Lake | Premier Calgary Maternity Photographer | Lake Minnewanka, Alberta | Lace & Locket Photography

I met this lovely little 3-pack of awesome at the Mommylicious show in Airdrie back in March. As I talked to mama she told me about how she had a less than spectacular experience with her first babe but was very interested in my work. I immediately started thinking of ways I could make her experience with me a special one, before she had even booked! I was delighted when a few weeks later she wanted to book both a mountain maternity and a newborn session as well as some additional sessions later on after babe #2 was born. 

She was barely pregnant when we met so we had a long time to wait which I usually enjoy as it gives me a good amount of time to come up with a unique vision and style of imagery I think would look stunning for her. 

These images were the fruits of my creative imagination and I was so pleased to have a client who was willing to do things like get in the water and on the dock for some outstanding images. It was incredible. 

The client's makeup was done by Studio 150 Make Up Artistry
