Maternity Model Call – Seeking 3 Expecting Moms!
Hi, I’m Amie — a portrait photographer based in Niles — and I’m currently looking for three glowing moms-to-be to participate in a special maternity session! This is a beautiful opportunity to celebrate your pregnancy and be part of a creative collaboration, while helping me build my maternity portfolio.
I’ve had the joy of photographing a few maternity sessions before, but due to privacy preferences, those images aren’t available for public sharing. However, you can get a feel for my style and approach by viewing some of my other portrait work.
If you're between 28 and 32 weeks pregnant this August or September, and are comfortable with your images being shared on my website and social media, I’d love to hear from you!
Feel free to message me — I’d love to share more about who I’ve been learning from and the types of meaningful, artistic images I hope to create through these sessions.
