Summer Mountain Maternity Portraits | Kananaskis Country, Calgary Maternity Photographer | Lace & Locket Photo

This girl made her Kananaskis Mountain Maternity photo session one for the books, for real. She was like photographing a Disney princess and I was in my glory. We met at Barrier Lake in Kananskis Country as the sun was starting to set and this girl brought her A-game right off the hop.

We call this the Sunshine dress…..it’s one of my favourites for summer maternity sessions in and around Calgary and Banff.

She brought her tiara she wore on her wedding day to be extra Disney Princessy! What a great addition, if I could bring a whole selection of crowns to photoshoots, I would, because you’re a total princess if you’re growing and sustaining life. I loved this session so much. The above images were mostly taken at Wasootch Creek in Kananaskis.

Have I mentioned I know a beautiful, sandy little beach spot for the perfect beach vibes at your mountain maternity photo session? Oh yeah. Glorious Alberta Landscapes.

Gorgeous December Mountain Maternity | Banff Maternity Photographer | Lace & Locket Photo

This mountain maternity session was absolute perfection out in Banff. We have been so lucky to have such mild weather this season! This client originally had booked a local Calgary session when she had her first and I was so so happy when she chose a mountain maternity session for her second!

Her mountain maternity session couldn’t have been more beautiful. I know that there will be more of these in 2024 and they’re going to be fantastic!

This gorgeous mama had her makeup done by MaddPretty YYC in Calgary, Alberta. All these gowns are available in my client closet for maternity sessions but if you wanted to do a casual session and gio with the flow, we can do that too!

Milky Way Mountain Maternity Portraits | Mountain Maternity Photographer | Lace & Locket Photo

WOW

This session was like dynamite. It was a breath of fresh air and the weather was lovely (for being done in Winter, anyways). This mama was an absolute stunner at her Mountain Maternity portrait session.

This sweet gal had seen a photo I had taken earlier in the year where I put a moon and the Milky Way into a Mountain maternity portrait for another client and she loved it, and asked if I’d be willing to do something like that for hers. I absolutely did and I love how it matched the gown she is wearing in this shot.

All of the gowns that are featured in this mountain maternity portrait session in Banff are a part of my client closet and are available for use for clients.

Hot August Mountain Maternity Portraits...actually |Mountain Maternity Photographer | Banff, Alberta | Lace & Locket Photo

This session took place at the very end of summer, during the Labour Day weekend. Before everyone went back to school and work after fun in the sun, we headed to Banff for a Mountain Maternity Session. It was so hot this day, and I mean, look at this mama. She’s hot too. Her hair and makeup was done by S.Kay Makeup artistry, my in-house makeup artist for Lace & Locket Photo!

All gowns featured in this session are available in my client closet, for booked clients.
All mountain maternity sessions include professional hair and makeup.

Golden Hour Mountain Maternity | Banff Maternity Photographer | Lace & Locket Photo

This gorgeous human being decided that on her way to come meet me in Banff for her Mountain Maternity session, it would be a good time to take a tumble down a stair or three……..Right after S.Kay Makeup Artist left, after dolling up this beauty, she tripped and smacked her face. She showed up with a sore ankle, and a swollen eye!! Obviously I was more concerned about if she was ok, and had she not even told me her eye was swollen I don’t think I would have even noticed!

She didn’t even care that she was bumped and a little bruised, she just wanted to do her photos, and she ABSOLUTELY NAILED THEM. LOOK AT THIS STUNNER. She brought this gown with her, and the colour was stunning. Between the sky and the water, it couldn’t have been more perfect.

From our starting place, where we shot the blue dress, we went up the mountain to a field and did an outfit change. When E picked this dress, she wasn’t sure it would go with her skin tone but asked me to bring it anyways so she could at least look at it.

I’d say it’s her colour. In fact, it’s SO her colour that we chose to use it for some of her sweet baby’s newborn portraits, that I’ll show in a later post. Can’t wait!

We then went to the top of the mountain for some extra sexy maternity portraits, won’t be including those in this post, haha!
