I love maternity sessions. There’s something unique and special about a couple that’s expecting their baby - especially when it’s their first child. They are excited, they are enjoying their last weeks as a family of 2 before a major change happens. Nothing will be the same after that. Motherhood and fatherhood bring in the kind of emotions that they haven’t experienced before. It removes some part of selfishness that we all carry in us. It can also test your physical and psychological limits especially when it’s combined with lack of sleep. In some weeks they will need to be fully dedicated to taking care of a new life and that concern is not something that ever stops. And yes it’s life changing, it’s exciting and it’s scary at the same time because now you’re responsible for this little life that can’t really communicate with you in their first months at least. Being a father I know how it feels and it’s much larger change for a mother.
So when Kanika and Rahul asked for a maternity session I was all in. I have a few ideas i wanted to try out and I wanted to create a unique, in some cases magazine like quality to the images. I also wanted to have a conceptual image of them in their house where the world is around the future mom.
Few of the images we captured during our hour and half session are here.
