Whimsical Tea Party & Maternity Styled Session

Whimsical Tea Party & Maternity Styled Session

I first met sweet baby Elizabeth and her lovely parents in my Hudson studio 3 years ago for her One Year Cake Smash.  She was such a doll for the camera. A lemonade stand styled session was the perfect fit for her bright personality.  I was so honored when her mommy reached out for Elizabeth’s 4 year old milestone session and their family’s new adventure with an expecting baby brother.

Since the near future will most likely be filled with trucks, trains and dinosaurs…

we decided to create a whimsical girly-girl styled session just for her.  Her mom mentioned a tea party styled session. She sent me a link to the blush colored dress she’d plan to wear which is actually a bridesmaid dress from a wedding she had recently attended. Turn s out you can wear them more than once! The Two Birds Bridesmaid dress was a perfect maternity gown!

I gave the info to stylist and magic maker Natalie Gartner with Little Miss Party Planner and she ran (no sprinted) with it!  We were all a little blown away with the amazing setup Natalie created.  When Elizabeth saw is, she couldn’t help but to explode with smiles!

The tea party styled session…took place at Cascade Park in Hudson which was the perfect setting.

The best time of day for outdoor photos is the golden hour or 1 hour prior to sunset. For this session, it was all bout the details and color palette we chose. I scouted out several spots and even made my final decision regarding location the evening prior. Location is often something I stress most about. And that’s because, there are so many variables when it comes to lighting. For this styled session, I wanted my greens to compliment the blush pink perfectly.  It sounds silly, but greenery can photograph and transcend in so many different ways depending on light. Time of day, time of year and overall weather conditions will all create the overall color tone of a photograph. The park is already very secluded and we ended up being the only ones there that evening, which worked out great!
