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! 

Melyssa's Stunning Lake Session | Calgary Premier Maternity Photographer | Spray Lakes, Alberta | Lace & Locket Photography

I am IN LOVE. with this session. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE. This mama was having her third, last babe & wanted to feel like  a goddess but when she showed up ready to shoot I knew she already was one. She totally rocked this session, she got into one gown and it's like it was made for her. She got all dolled up for this session -  hair & makeup and she added the final touches with flower crowns and dresses for the girls. 

This was exactly how I want these mountain sessions to go.I want you to, with my help, to pull all the stops and feel empowered and godly and amazing. You should be, you're creating life! 

We did this session on May Long weekend. I don't know why it didn't dawn on me that it would be so crazy busy in the mountains and I went to 3 different places to scope out for our shoot and every single one you couldn't' even park let alone find a place to shoot that wasn't covered with folks. Lucky for me these clients used to live in the Canmore area and they knew all the good spots. This location had maybe 7 other people and none of them were really even near us, and so we proceeded to make this magic. 

Melyssa's makeup was done by Makeup Mel, located in Canmore.
