I absolutely loved this maternity session we did in the Pasadena area of Los Angeles. We first started at my beautiful client's home with a natural maternity lifestyle session. Her home had the most beautiful light that really made this session dreamy.

We then ended our maternity session at the beautiful Arlington Gardens in Pasadena. It's a small garden and requires a $100 permit to shoot there, but gosh it really is beautiful. I love that we got both a light and airy feel with the home lifestyle maternity session and then a more romantic moody feel with the outdoor session.
