I was so happy to get to the beach this May. Apollo Beach photos are always fun and I have had quite a few maternity sessions there over the years, too. It is typically not the busiest beach in the area, but the new viewing platform and longer hours until sunset year round definitely makes it an easier to get to beach for those of us on this side of the bay for sure. For this time of year, the weather is warmer, the water is warmer, but the breeze at the beach usually means it is one of the slightly cooler spots to do a photo session in Tampa Bay in summer!

Kismet, that is what this session was. Just meant to be. A gorgeous night with the sweetest family about to welcome their newest addition any moment. Brandon, Florida, pregnancy pictures taken in Winthrop Town Center, full of light, love and connections!

Tampa maternity photos at Medard Park, just east of Tampa, is one of my favorite settings for family photos in general. If you have young children, this park is up there for a great photo location because it has so much space to play and explore. Plus, it is just a gorgeous backdrop for expectant mamas.

Stunning mama to be and couple photo shoot celebrating their expecting baby. These Riverview maternity pictures among the wildflowers were stunning! Can't wait for this couple to meet their baby soon!

Announcing a new family member, what could be more exciting? Loved seeing this couple that I helped photographer their Florida wedding for a few years back return with some exciting news to share with family and friends. Here are some ideas of how to announce your pregnancy without cheesy photos!
