Why Maternity Photoshoot is strange but a good idea for your family

This probably still seems strange to a lot of people… but times have changed and maternity photos are just another way to document a special and exciting time in our lives. Capturing the special moments when you are expecting and in the first days of the baby’s life leaves you with photos that you will cherish your whole life. Below are some reasons why you must think of capturing these special times.

Proficient psychologists hold that most of the pregnant women feel insecure about their general look and figure when pregnant. As the bellies become larger and they add extra weight, they tend to feel unhappy and uglier.

Even if you don’t always feel beautiful (achy feet, sore back, tired legs, stretch marks), just think of all the things going on inside your bodies!  You have created a living being who is growing and being nourished inside of you.

Maternity photography is one of the options of counteracting such feelings and ultimately improving the self-esteem of the individuals. This is an art that stresses on how beautiful pregnancy is.

This kind of photos are a way for us to celebrate the baby we’re about to meet, to celebrate our love for each other, and to celebrate the strength of our incredible bodies.

This is one sure way of celebrating the new addition to the family members. Bearing children is considered a form of blessing. Capturing these maternity images is one of the simple and unique ways of celebrating it. It will always remind parents, particularly the mothers, of the happy times and hardships felt when waiting for the baby to arrive finally.

When, many parents have the photos with their kids; they feel closer to their mother. Additionally, the photographs help in teaching the children the process of birthing. It is proven that the maternity photos will deliver soothing emotions to mothers during the pregnancy phases.

Pregnancy is an experience that happens once in a lifetime. There is no better way of reminiscing this incredible moment that having professional photos taken. The picture can be enjoyed or shared with your loved members, particularly when the child ages and eventually grow.

Capturing beautiful moments for first-time parents is so precious…and so is taking photos of your growing family. This maternity shoot at Cabo San Lucas with their son Jack was another memorable day for all of us in Mexico.

Why Cabo San Lucas

Cabo San Lucas makes for the perfect backdrop in capturing moments like these. Sharing the sheer joy of celebrating the arrival of another family member through photos is a great way of looking back at the time that the only child is about to be the big brother of the family. With pristine waters, crisp, white sand, and a beautiful afternoon sun, nothing can go wrong.

Simple yet memorable

We asked them to wear all black so they could stand out against the bedrock on the beach and make it more organic and natural. The dynamic of this family is such a joy to watch and it showed how excited they were as they celebrate their vacation until the next member of their family arrives.

And how can we not think that Jack is too cute for words?

The Jones: A Blissful Maternity Shoot at Santa Maria Beach In Los Cabos Mexico

The Jones: A Blissful Maternity Shoot at Santa Maria Beach In Los Cabos Mexico

Alissa Jones and Corey Moore were more than excited to spend their very first trip to Mexico at Bahía Santa Maria (Santa Maria Beach) in Los Cabos. They stayed at the Montage Resort and booked us to celebrate their upcoming bundle of joy.

Santa Maria Beach: One of Cabo’s Most Beautiful Beaches

This horseshoe-shaped beach is one of Cabo’s most beautiful and popular beaches. It is relatively secluded, which made our shoot very private and easy. Alissa and Corey wanted to capture the moments before their bundle of joy is born. They even drew out their baby’s name on the almost pink-hued, rice-like sand.

Activities you can do at Santa Maria Beach

Staying at hotels near Santa Maria Beach is ideal, as the beach offers quite a few activities that you and your loved ones can enjoy. Snorkeling is a popular activity, as Santa Maria Beach is a safeguarded marine haven with lots of colorful fish. Since this is also a slightly private beach, you can choose to lay in the sand instead and enjoy an afternoon of relaxation. This is also a popular SCUBA diving destination for divers and ocean lovers out there.

Montage Los Cabos

Corey and Alissa stayed at the Montage resort, which is a Forbes 5-Star resort with breathtaking views, quality amenities, and seaside villas you’ll definitely love to stay in. It’s truly a vacation sweet spot, mostly enjoyed by couples and families alike.

Precious Moments: An Endearing Photoshoot at the Grand Solmar Resort

Precious Moments: An Endearing Photoshoot at the Grand Solmar Resort

An all-time favorite destination, the Grand Solmar Land’s End Resort & Spa sits at the edge of the Pacific side of Cabo San Lucas. Known for its picturesque views and breathtaking scenery, it’s no surprise why the Kang family chose this resort for their first-time vacation with their adorable 8-month-old.

A Happy Accident

Initially, the Kang family wanted to have their photoshoot at the Lover’s Beach; but in order to get there, you must ride a small boat. At the morning of the shoot dad had second thoughts and decided to have their photos taken at the Grand Solmar beach instead. It was a “happy accident”, as the pictures came out beautifully, not just because of the beautiful backdrop but because of the precious moments we managed to take.

Beautiful Photos of a Beautiful Family
We started to shoot late-evening until sunset. Our particular favourites were the shots of their silhouettes against the beautiful sunset. This family did not need any directions from our photographer, Diego, at all. The Kang family was very natural and had an endearing energy that we couldn’t stop capturing. One could see that love that emanated from these photos. This is magic that Photoshop can’t even create.

Happiness in a Photo
As we reviewed the photos (trust us, it was difficult for us to choose the best ones, because everything turned out perfectly), it was sheer happiness that we saw in each photograph. The looks they gave to their 8-year-old daughter and to each other as husband and wife are one of the reasons why we love what we do—it’s capturing happiness in photos and immortalizing each one so families can look back at their unforgettable trips together.
