Editorial Western Maternity Session | Golden Hour in Missouri

We timed the session around sunset to capture that fleeting glow that turns everything to honey. Missouri summers can be unpredictable, but on this day, the skies showed off. As the sun dipped low, the field lit up in rich tones of amber and gold—turning every image into a love letter to this season of life.

Maternity photography doesn’t have to be overly posed or overly styled. In fact, some of the most powerful images come from simplicity. My approach is always rooted in storytelling—less about trends, more about truth.

This session was a reminder that your maternity photos can feel as editorial as a magazine spread while still being completely you. Whether we’re on a windy hillside or in your own backyard, what matters most is capturing the emotion, the movement, and the quiet strength of this chapter.
