Winter isn't the season that many people think of as the most photogenic season. They tend to love the brilliant colors and lush greens of Summer and the golden and red tones of Fall -- but I think a Winter maternity photo shoot -- and what to wear? -- is the way to go!

Embrace Your Inner Ice Queen

From hair and makeup to your wardrobe, Winter is a time to bring out the iciness within us all and create a stunning maternity portrait. Work within a white, silver, and blue color palette to create icy winter colors and let your inner ice queen out!

Make it Luxurious

Winter is all about the cold -- why not bundle up in the most luxurious and out-of-this-world ways possible? maternity shoots are a great way to step out of our ordinary lives and into a world of rich textures, colors, and experiences. With Winter, we can experiment with tantalizing furs -- real or fake -- thick tartans and layer upon layer of silk wrappings. 

Use Nature for Surreality

One of the things I love most about shooting in Winter is exactly what people tend to discount it for -- its barren and blank canvas. This can take a normal photo shoot and bump it up to haute couture levels, taking something that would have seemed simply elegant indoors, but becoming entirely breathtaking outdoors. This photo from a fashion shoot in Lapland is a greater example of that -- reindeer not necessarily needed!
