For Marissa’s Maternity Session we ventured outdoors to Amherst State Park in Buffalo, New York. Maternity Sessions are best around 30 weeks so if you want to do a session outdoors you sometimes have to make the best of season. We did this session in early spring and went for a warm hopeful glow. Marissa was a pleasure to photograph and there was so much laughter, so many smiles, and so much joy during this session. We started with family portraits and mommy and daughter portraits. Then ventured down a nature trail for a bit for some woodsy shots. Lastly we finished at a little stone wall for some grander shots. Amherst State Park was a lovely location even being very early spring. Opted for pine tree filled spots to add some greenery. Marissa’s magenta dress really popped and her romantic earrings added a lot.
