Maternity Photography Where You Can Let Go and Be Taken Care Of

Full-service maternity, newborn, and milestone photography in
Wall, NJ, serving Monmouth County and Central New Jersey.

Professional hair and makeup, wardrobe, posing, and thoughtful retouching are all handled for your maternity session.

A Full-Service Maternity Experience

You already have enough to plan. Your maternity photography experience shouldn’t feel like one more thing you need to manage.

Professional hair and makeup, wardrobe access, posing guidance, and thoughtful retouching are all included in your maternity session. You don’t need to arrive knowing what to wear, how to pose, or how to feel confident in front of the camera.

I’ll guide you through the entire experience and show you the photographs as we work. Most women begin their session feeling a little hesitant. As they see what we’re creating, they relax, become more confident, and start enjoying the experience.

You Don’t Have to Feel Confident Before You Arrive

Being photographed while pregnant can feel vulnerable, especially when your body doesn’t feel familiar.

You don’t need to pretend that every part of pregnancy feels beautiful. I didn’t always enjoy my own pregnancy, and I understand that you can appreciate what your body is doing while still feeling uncomfortable or unlike yourself.

There is no judgment here. My job is to guide you, take care of the details, and help you see the beautiful, strong woman bringing her child into the world.

Client Experiences

"Hi Ekaterina, I wanted to thank you first and foremost for bringing my vision to life. Every picture taken was so beautiful and showed each and every one of our personalities. I can’t thank you enough for being so patient with me whether it was color schemes, outfit changes or what shoes to wear but you always addressed my questions and concerns in such a timely manner. Thank you for capturing such a special day for my family as we get ready to embark on this new journey. Thank you for being such an amazing person and photographer, probably one of the best I’ve ever worked with. You are beautiful inside and out and I hope to work with you again in the future. Thank you so much again!"

“If you are unsure if you want to do maternity photos or not don't hesitate and book with Ekaterina immediately! I was super nervous to do this photo shoot but Kat made everything effortless. She made me feel so comfortable, confident, and beautiful while we were taking the photos. It was so much fun! These are photos I will cherish forever and I am so incredibly grateful to Kat and the whole experience. I would recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful pictures and I can't wait to hire her again! .”

“I’ll never use another photographer again!! Kat is kind, patient, professional and SO good !!! As a second time mommy, I was anxious to get photos of my first while pregnant with my second. Although my toddler was super distracted most of my shoot, Kat was still able to capture photos of us that looked like everything had been going great ! I have now used Kat for my family Christmas photos, maternity photos, and mommy & me photos. There is no one better to trust! Book her without hesitation!.”

“I was super nervous to be photographed while pregnant cause let’s be honest, it’s hard to feel good when you’re so much bigger than you’re used to but Ekaterina made me feel AMAZING every second she took my picture. My boyfriend who’s completely camera shy even said he had so much fun having his picture taken. We couldn’t have asked for better pictures. It was truly the greatest experience and I’m so happy to have these photos!.”

"Ekaterina is great! She did our family pictures and also did our maternity photos. She is patient, kind and very professional. I am so awkward with pictures but she hep us with our poses, looks and location. The pictures came out beautiful. I highly recommend her, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Ekaterina!"

"It was a pleasure working with Ekaterina. She is a thorough professional. She did an amazing job in capturing our maternity photoshoot that on seeing the edited pics, we ended up doing the newborn session also with her and it turned out to be too good. The edited pics and the album was truly breathtaking that it was worth every penny spent. If you need to truly cherish your beautiful moments and keep those memories forever through pics, then I would highly recommend her."
