Sunrise Lavender Maternity Session in the Lavender Fields, Provence¶
T and C’s session in the lavender fields of Provence was a quiet and emotional maternity shoot, celebrating the upcoming arrival of their baby girl. T was pregnant at the time, and this session marked a beautiful moment of anticipation before their lives changed in the most meaningful way.
Maternity Sessions Planning¶
For maternity sessions, we always recommend bringing small personal props such as baby clothing, shoes, a dress, or even an ultrasound image. These details add a deeply personal touch to the photographs and can later be used again in a future session with the baby, creating a gentle visual continuity between moments.
Sunrise Colours¶
We began the shoot at 06:00 and continued until 07:00, one of the most magical times of day in the lavender fields. Just before sunrise, the landscape is filled with deep purple tones and soft, quiet light. As the sun rises, the colours gradually shift into warm orange and golden hues. Photographing across this transition allows for two distinct atmospheres within a single session, from calm and dreamy to bright and radiant.
Maternity Poses¶
During the hour together, we captured a full variety of images: solo portraits of T, individual moments of C, and intimate photographs of them together. We focused on natural connection, gentle movement, and soft posing that highlighted both the lavender surroundings and the emotion of this season of their lives.
The result was a tender and timeless collection of images, preserving the quiet beauty of early morning in Provence and the joyful expectation of the little girl they were about to meet.
