As a photographer, it is always a pleasure to capture countless memorable moments for people. However, some shoots stand out as truly magical, and Aleesia and James’ dreamy maternity photo shoot was one of those. This maternity session was filled with love, life, and the beauty of pregnancy. Join me on our journey through their San Francisco maternity session. Keep scrolling to read about our day 🙂 🤍.

Above all, my favorite part of this session was the way the natural light played with Aleesia’s growing belly. As the sun dipped lower in the sky, we captured the soft, golden hour glow that highlighted Aleesia, making her appear as if she were glowing from within. In any maternity shoot, capturing the intimate connection between the parents and their excitement about their newest addition is always such a beautiful thing to witness and capture. Aleesia and James shared affectionate glances, gentle touches, and sweet little interactions with their little one and soon-to-be little one💗✨.

After all, Aleesia and James’ maternity session was truly such a special moment for me and was such an honor to be a part of. I had the absolute best time capturing this family for their San Francisco maternity session. Everything about this day was perfect! From their outfit choice, to how the natural light enhanced them, all the way to how these photos turned out! Continue scrolling to see the sneak peeks of how our session turned out🤍✨

Kind Words

“Monique was calming and down-to-earth on our wedding day and she artfully weaved capturing our meaningful moments (first look, walking down the aisle, family photos and toasts) into the flow of the evening. Looking through her photographs after the wedding has been amazing to help remember the details of an evening that absolutely flew by! Thank you, Monique!” – Emily Young
