...She really captured the crazy that is our family. It was a chilly, gloomy day at Morro Bay but the photos are so very good. And we had so much fun taking them! If you are in the area or if you are visiting family, like we were, I would highly recommend Rosa..”
“We had a FABULOUS time with Rosa!!!

FAQ
next question —
The best time to schedule a maternity photo session is typically during the seventh or eighth month of pregnancy. At this stage, your belly is noticeably rounded, but you're not too close to your due date, which can be uncomfortable and unpredictable. This timing allows for a beautiful representation of your pregnancy while ensuring you're still comfortable during the photo shoot.
what's a GOOD TIME
to schedule a MATERNITY SESSION?
next question —
Opt for flowy dresses or skirts as they can complement your figure beautifully. Stick to simplicity with solid colors and minimal patterns for a timeless look.
Accessorize your ensemble with items like shawls, jewelry, or hats to infuse your personality into the outfit.
