This mama called to schedule her maternity photo session months ago. She expressed her desire for the traditional maternity family photos but then asked about a milk bath option.  I’ve seen and heard about milk bath maternity shoots for 2 years now, but have never had the opportunity to photograph one. We started with an outdoor location, to capture the traditional family photo  pictures, then moved inside for the milk bath part. Can I tell you I LOVED it!! I totally understand now why milk bath photography has become so popular. The focus isn’t on the location, outfit or props. Instead, we just focused on the beautiful mom-to-be embracing the end of her pregnancy in an intimate environment. She was so relaxed and calm throughout the entire shoot.  And did you know that milk actually helps exfoliate and clean the skin? I totally wanted my own milk bath afterwards! Thank you Kayla for pushing me out of my comfort zone by asking me to do something I had never done before. I know you will look back on and cherish this moment in your life.  

Now, before you scroll, this is not meant to be boudoir or sensual. These photos are about celebrating motherhood. This mama IS in a bath tub, and covered everywhere underwear would cover you. SO if you are a little sensitive and think something like this might possibly make you blush, you may want to skip the second half of photos. Or just ask your teenage sons to leave the room while you scroll!
