Are you an adventurous expectant Mom, who is willing to brave the icy temperatures to have a truly breathtaking winter wonderland maternity session? If that is you, this blog post is exactly what you need.

Winter is a special season, although it can be harsh. With a little extra preparation you can have a winter wonderland session even when the weather is not ideal. If you live in Alberta you know what I mean.

So here are 5 tips to make the most of a winter maternity session.

  • 1. Use Nature as your prop.

    Winter in Alberta is synonymous to snow…lots of snow. So why not embrace the season and use all that snow to capture the spirit of winter.

  • 2. Trust your photographer and be flexible.

    Remember that you hired your photographer because you love their work. So relax and let them do their magic. Be prepared for a shorter session (specially if the day is colder than what was expected) and go with the flow.

  • 3. Use colors that will make the snow pop.

    Don't be afraid of adding color to your session. A beautiful colorful dress will add a new dimension to your images. Having a photographer that offers a wardrobe is a huge bonus. Use their expert advise in your favor. They want you to look and feel like a snow Goddess.

  • 4. Keep warm as much as possible.

    Use warm and comfortable boots. Don't forget hand and feet warmers. Taking short breaks for everyone to head back into the warmth of the car is a must. Bringing a warm drink is always a great idea. Some cuddling under a blanket always makes for a great image
