Report

I'm Ellen, a maternity and newborn photographer in Kalamazoo Michigan. I'm a former RN who loved my years working in ICU, but relished the years after that at home with my 4 kids even more. I've loved babies almost since I was one myself. I remember spending hours poring over the pictures of beautiful babies in the Better Homes & Gardens Baby Book.

Maternity photo session information

Report

Your session can be one of two types. For a studio look to your pictures, your session will take place in your home. I bring simple backdrops and lights and everything else we'll need to turn your living room into a mini-studio. If you prefer outdoor scenery, we can meet outdoors in a scenic area. These can be done year-round, using spots like a park or garden in the spring and summer, beaches in summer, fields in fall and even out in the snow in the winter.Look over the pictures on the website and see if you prefer indoor or outdoor photos, posed or more interactive with others.
