An Autumn Maternity Session | CT Maternity Photographer

It was a chilly autumn afternoon when I met Emily and JT at my most favorite location, the wildflower meadow. We were there to celebrate pregnancy, and the excitement of their first child.

I always like to meet with my clients before we even book a session date, because I love meeting new people, learning their stories, getting to know them.

Getting to know Emily, I learned that while she is beyond grateful for this pregnancy, it hasn’t come without some obstacles to overcome. Emily has suffered from hyperemesis gravidarum or HG, a severe nausea during pregnancy that at times last throughout the entire course of pregnancy.

Even still, this mama shines with optimism, with love, with joy, with excitement.

It was an absolute honor to get to know these wonderful parents and to capture this season of life for them.
