Maternity Photography – Mother of the Month – October – Ana

by Filed Under: Mother of the Month

Maternity photography is a special genre of portrait photography. There are moments that you witness that are so special. That is how I felt when I met maternity photography clients, Ana and Zoran. They had a special relationship: the photos tell it. Maternity photography of pregnant woman and her husband

1. Tell me a little bit about yourself, Zoran and how you met. Why you decided to have kids. Was it an easy process? 

Zoran and I met in New York more than 15 years ago. Our relationship started as a friendship and grew into the love of our lives. Things were challenging at times, but we always felt that the bond we shared was worth fighting for. Motherhood was not an intuitive choice for me and it took me a while to fully appreciate that I had it in me. It was Zoran’s kindness and love that led me to a place where I found strength and confidence to embark on this amazing journey….

Our relationship is based on unconditional love for each other and the feeling that being together brings the best out of us. Laughing together as often as possible, as well as being there for each other when life gets tough, is our secret to being happy together. We hope to give our little girl tons of love and support to help her become the person she wants to be…

I just fell in love with your maternity photography the moment I laid my eyes on some of your photographs. The more I researched your work, the more I loved it. It didn’t take long to understand that your photographs were how I wanted to capture this special period in our life and to mark the very beginning of parenthood.

We believe that nothing matches the joy of watching a child grow and being there for her. Every day of my pregnancy was a step closer to being able to embrace that joy and a wonderful bonding experience for us as a couple. I found this state of expecting the new phase in life to be both thrilling and peacefully sacred….Maternity photograph of pregnant woman

  • Heather, Tucson, AZ

    Jennifer makes you feel like you’re the prettiest woman she has ever photographed.

  • Elissa, Seattle

    We just put up our photos this morning – it is so wonderful to see them! West wanted all of his photos in his own room :-)

  • Geoff, Washington, DC

    Jen, thank you. Denise can’t stop talking about how much she enjoyed the shoot; she’s glowing, even more than usual. She does indeed feel beautiful, as she should. I too had a lovely time. It was something we won’t soon forget.

  • Victoria, Manhattan, NY

    This has been a difficult pregnancy for me, when Jennifer photographed me, it was the first time I felt beautiful. I now see my body in a new way, and that is priceless.

  • Christine, Palo Alto

    Jennifer has a rare insight, allowing her to capture on film that which we may find difficult to express ourselves; those most precious moments in life when we know – ‘I am loved’.

  • Patricia, Chicago, IL

    I searched the internet looking for the right person to go to. I didn’t care that I had to fly from Chicago because if I was going to do this, then I wanted to do it with the best. You are simply the best.

  • Ann Fong, Menlo Park, CA

    As an Asian woman, I was impressed with Jennifer because much of her work included Asian women. The shoot was fun because she really focused on the maternity. She made photos that were fairly discreet but at the same time revealed the shape of my body. I am comfortable in putting them in my home.

  • Randy, Bellevue, WA

    You give the world eyes to see pregnant women and families.

  • Sara Beem, wife of pro golfer Rich Beem, El Paso, TX

    I love the photographs, I just love them! This is the special keepsake I was looking for. These are works of art.

  • Carrie, NY

    I finally got around to having the beautiful photographs you took of me framed. Well, it is more than I imagined! The photographs moved me before, but now that they are framed and on our walls, I love them even more...

  • Betty, San Francisco, CA

    Images like these have really changed how I perceived my pregnant form. Thank you!

  • Christine, Maternity and family photography, Palo Alto

    Our experience with Jennifer was a delight; from the first moment I spoke to her about making an appointment, to receiving our beautiful photographs as a finished product.

  • Laura, Concord, CA

    Thank you for coming to photograph me and my family. I was really looking for a special way of celebrating my third, and last, pregnancy. I researched many photographers, but I kept coming back to you because your photos are just so beautiful. Although it was a luxury for us, I am so glad we did this...

  • Stephanie, Seattle, WA

    (Stephanie like the photos so much she ordered 15 prints)

    I was on such a high after leaving your studio that even if the photos didn’t turn out, it was still worth it.

  • Sarah, who did this as a surprise for her husband, Seattle, WA

    Stu absolutely loved them, as did I. So glad we chose you — your work is beautiful and the photo shoot was such a positive experience. Thank you so much!

  • Donna and Tim, Seattle, WA

    Dear Jennifer, Is the beautiful 37 week pregnant woman in those pictures really me? To call them pictures is not an accurate description — they’re art. Thank you for sharing your special talent with us.

  • Sherri, first-time mother

    Thanks for being so low-key and helping me feel comfortable. I think your work is going to help define and accurately reflect just how excited Henry and I are to start our family. Henry is going to love this work by both of us.

  • Cheryl, Seattle, WA

    This was good for the soul.

  • Rob & Emily, Livonia, MI

    We flew over 2,000 miles just to have Jennifer take pictures of my pregnant wife. It was the best decision we ever made. My wife was a little nervous at first, but Jennifer made it seem like we were long lost friends. This was an experience we will remember for the rest of our lives...

  • Jennifer, St. Louis, MO

    I had such a great experience with Jennifer, I flew back from St. Louis to be photographed again. I recommend her to everyone I see. Every woman should do this!

  • Ana and Zoran, Maternity Photography, New York City

    This experience was priceless.
