Let Me Guess...

Corona virus hit and suddenly you wish your pregnancy lasted a little longer. The swollen ankles, the heartburn, and the constant need to pee...it is all worth holding on to for a chance to celebrate in the way you imagined for your pregnancy.

And you have probably found yourself wondering about a few things:

  • Walking the isles of baby stores to plan and set-up the nursery
  • Unable to celebrate with your friends and family with a baby shower
  • Missing out on prenatal yoga and valuable exercise
  • Not feeling empowered in your new body with maternity portraits
  • The feeling of isolation and facing the unknown
  • Unsure of what type of birth plan to choose during this season of life

Imagine If...

  • you are shown proper exercises, stretches, and guided through a flow prenatal class from a certified yoga instructor: Southern Shanti
  • you had a step-by-step guide how to take maternity self-portraits.
  • you are taught camera settings, given tips how to use a self-timer.
  • you had the exact same presets I use to edit every maternity session I photograph
  • you felt empowered and beautiful in your own skin through maternity self-portraiture
  • you are invited to a private community of expecting mamas who are going through the same season of life as you are Mamas you can ask for advice, share woes and anxieties, and find support

BODIES ARE POWERFUL
FEAR IS NORMAL
​WOMEN ARE STRONG
WHAT IF I GAVE YOU THE TOOLS THAT YOU NEEDED TO FEEL RELAXED, EMPOWERED, AND CONFIDENT IN YOUR BODY?
Picture
I have photographed women for 7 years. I used to think I needed all the things to be successful and create beautiful images, but over time I realized simple is beautiful. I still mainly use natural light, one favorite lens, and handed down studio lights from the 1990's. I have created a simple but effective process to capture authentic images of my clients, using dance parties, good jams, a simple reminder to just breath, and fluid posing.

"Laura made me feel so comfortable and confident that I didn't think twice about my decision to capture this special time in my life. Taking her advice on getting ideas (outfits, angles, hair/makeup) was the best help I could ask for. I felt more prepared and had a better sense of how I wanted to be seen in my pictures. Her direction for each pose was simple and she made sure I was comfortable."

What I know is you will not regret taking the time to do this for yourself.

At first this might seem like just another task to add to your never ending to-do list before baby comes, but self-care is more important than ever during such an unknown time.

At 35 weeks in the middle of August in Texas. It took all motivation in me to fight through the exhaustion, heat, and my swollen body to not only set up my photo equipment but get ready.

AND FOR JUST $49, LIMITED TIME YOU CAN GET EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO FEEL RELAXED, PREPARED, BEAUTIFUL, AND EMPOWERED IN THIS NEW SEASON.

 Let me tell you it was worth it!

Your Photographer & Fellow Mama

Hi, I'm Laura Saucedo

I'm an Austin, Texas mama of a sweet baby girl, 3 crazy dogs, and an unfairly attractive husband, who grew a simple love for photography into a business that empowers women to find their calm and confidence through nature and boudoir. In all honesty, before my own pregnancy, documenting maternity portraits was not a high priority for me. Sure, I appreciated the sentiment but I couldn’t relate. I was all about my dogs and the illusion of freedom that I thought I had. Then I was blessed with a pregnancy that took us two years to conceive. I was to sick for the first 18 weeks to even appreciate it, but after feeling the kicks the warm and fuzzies took over and I couldn’t wait to document it.

35 weeks came in the middle of August in Texas. It took all motivation in me to fight through the exhaustion, heat, and my swollen body to not only set up my photo equipment but get ready. Let me tell you it was worth it. I felt excited, beautiful, confident, and empowered by what my body was doing. 

I still look at these photos every single day, reminded of the amazingness that is my body and the daughter I made from scratch.  Whether you are documenting this pregnancy to celebrate, to heal from complications, for body self-love, or to feel more empowered and confident I know you will not regret this experience.
