The Lair Studio: Floral Maternity Magic
Recently, I had the honor of photographing a stunning floral-themed maternity session at The Lair Studio in Falls Church.
This session was all about keeping things simple and beautiful. The bright white walls gave us a clean, classic backdrop, letting the focus stay on this glowing mama and the soft, delicate florals around her.
We started with solo portraits, capturing her in the quiet anticipation of meeting her baby. Natural light poured in, adding warmth and depth to every image. The floral details brought a soft, organic feel—nothing overdone, just a natural complement to the moment. Every shot reflected the joy, excitement, and beauty of this stage in her journey.

How to Plan Your Own Floral-Themed Maternity Shoot at The Lair Studio
Planning a floral-themed maternity session at The Lair Studio involves a few key steps to ensure a smooth and memorable experience. Here are some tips to help you prepare:
1. Choose Your Flowers Wisely
Select flowers that hold significance for you or go with ones that match your desired color scheme. Roses, lilies, and daisies are popular choices for their beauty and symbolism.
2. Coordinate Outfits
Wear clothing that complements the floral theme. Soft, flowing dresses in pastel shades work well. Ensure your children’s outfits also match the overall color palette for cohesive photos.
3. Schedule Around Natural Light
The Lair Studio’s natural lighting creates a soft, flattering glow. Schedule your session during times when natural light is abundant, generally mid-morning or late afternoon.
4. Prepare Your Kids
If your children will be joining the session, prepare them in advance. Explain what will happen during the shoot to help them feel comfortable. Bring snacks and toys to keep them engaged.
5. Discuss Your Vision
Share your ideas and vision with your photographer beforehand. Whether you want posed shots or candid moments, communicating your preferences will help achieve the desired results.
