This gorgeous maternity session in Benton, Louisiana was full of beauty, emotion, and that special glow that only expecting mamas carry. We celebrated the upcoming arrival of baby girl #3 with a cozy blend of indoor and outdoor photos that captured this beautiful season of life so sweetly.
Before the session even began, this mama took time to treat herself and her two older daughters to professional hair and makeup. The result? They looked and felt absolutely radiant. It’s always worth the extra step to have hair and makeup done—it not only enhances the final images but helps everyone feel extra confident and pampered in front of the camera.
For maternity photos in Benton, we started indoors, where soft natural light set the tone for some timeless and elegant portraits. There’s something so peaceful about indoor maternity photos. They feel intimate and calm—perfect for documenting the quiet before the baby arrives. Then we moved outdoors to soak in the fresh air and capture the golden glow of Louisiana’s natural beauty. The girls danced in the sunlight, giggled in between shots, and loved being part of the moment.
This session wasn’t just about one expecting mama—it was about the whole family growing in love and anticipation. These big sisters are already so smitten with their new sibling, and it showed in every frame. Capturing their bond now is going to be such a special gift once the baby arrives.
And the best part? We’ll be seeing this sweet family again very soon for their newborn session. I can’t wait to meet their newest little girl and continue telling their story.
If you’re expecting and dreaming of having your maternity photos in Benton or nearby, let’s make it happen! I’d love to help you feel beautiful and seen during this incredible season.
