North County San Diego Maternity Shoot
This North County San Diego maternity shoot was so beautiful! Hayley and Austin are expecting their first child this summer after being together for almost 10 years since meeting in high school.
The Experience of Beach Maternity Photos
The best time of day for a North County San Diego maternity shoot is during either sunrise or sunset. It depends more on the location – if you’re on the beach, wanting mountain views, or more “city” views. You really could not go wrong with either sunrise or sunset no matter what though regarding lighting!
For these maternity photos, we met up at sunset in North County San Diego. Since it was sunset with mountain views, it wasn’t too crowded with a ton of people around. We were able to walk around the park and find plenty of private areas.
For outfits, Hayley had an outfit change for two different vibes – a more casual, cottage core vibe and a more formal vibe with the orange dress. Austin stayed in the same outfit for the entire maternity photoshoot though. Here is a Maternity Outfit Inspiration mood board from Pinterest for additional outfit ideas. A few props that you could include in your maternity photos (if you want! It’s not needed though) is ultrasound photos, baby clothes/booties, a flower bouquet, a sign/blanket/something with your baby’s name, and however else you want to incorporate fun details.
We ended up hanging out in this park for about ninety minutes taking photos and laughing and having fun! Hayley and Austin were so chill and were so excited about welcoming their baby boy in just a few months. I had them sitting, walking, dancing, in the flower fields (without harming any flowers!), and, of course, also did some solo shots of just Hayley. The photos turned out beautiful, if I do say so myself!!
