Sun drenched session
This session had the most amazing golden light shining down on wildflowers and lemon trees. My beautiful mama-to be was preparing to meet her first child soon and I was thrilled to help her and her husband capture this momentous chapter in their lives.

The Maternity Process
1. Say Hello
The best time for maternity photos is around 28-36 weeks of pregnancy, depending on multiple factors. This is typically when your baby bump is more prominent and you have more energy. However, every pregnancy and body is different, so it doesn't have to be a rigid time frame. Get in touch via the inquiry form on my contact page and we can discuss what's right for you. Double check the spelling of your email address. and if you don't hear back within 1-2 business days, check your spam folder. You can also email me directly at lunaria.photographer@gmail.com.
2. Schedule it
Once you book, I will email you a contract. After it's signed and the retainer is paid, your date will be saved on my calendar.

We'll discuss your vision for your maternity session. Do you want flowers? Do you want to have it at home or outdoors? No idea where to start? No problem. I'll advise you through it all.
You'll receive a questionnaire to help me prepare for your session and a style guide with outfit inspiration and retailer suggestions. I will also help coordinate outfits for your entire family, set up permits at locations that require them, provide hair and make up artist recommendations, and answer any questions you may have.

Let's make your vision come to life and have some fun along the way. I'll provide tips and tricks to get your best angles and continually check in on you to make sure you're comfortable and feeling good.

"Christine is an amazing photographer! She did both of our engagement and maternity shoots. She was exceptionally patient and kind when assisting us with the different poses since we had no experiences in that. We loved all the pictures because they were very dreamy and bright at the same time which was the exact style I was aiming for."
FAMILY session
"Kudos to your incredible photography skills and your ability to work your magic even when our kids were feeling all the feels! You managed to make it look like we were smiles the entire time. A big heartfelt thank you again for turning these moments into beautiful family memories we can cherish forever! We can't wait to share these with everyone!"
baby shower
"We were referred to Christine by our friends (who had a bridal shower and family pictures done) and my husband and I are glad we hired her for our baby shower. It was a traditional Hindu ceremony, but she highlighted all the important events and her pictures are amazing. The detail, precision, and emotions she captured really makes the "picture worth 1000 words." We are fortunate to have Christine part of our big day and look forward to working with her in the future."
DOHL (1st Birthday)
"Christine is so thoughtful and detailed both in taking the photos and editing them. Before the day of our event, she asked us what we wanted captured the day of, and she delivered more than what we expected. We’re more than happy with all of the shots that Christine took that day, and even happier with how the photos came out. We can tell that a lot of thought and effort went into each and every one of these shots. During the event, Christine was very flexible and mindful - she really captured every moment. We will definitely be reaching out to Christine for all of our future photography needs. Thank you, Christine!"
