A Journey Worth Taking: Why This Fairfax Mom Traveled to Baltimore for Her Dream Maternity Session
Pregnancy is a fleeting yet transformative time, and for many moms-to-be, capturing its beauty is worth going the extra mile—literally. That’s exactly what Megan, a first-time mom from Fairfax, VA, decided when she booked her maternity session at Elisheva Kutner Photography’s Baltimore studio.
Why She Chose Baltimore
Megan had spent weeks researching maternity photographers near Fairfax but couldn’t quite find what she was looking for. When she came across my website, she was immediately drawn to my minimalist style, the focus on emotional connection, and the seamless experience I provide.
“I loved how simple yet powerful the images were,” Megan shared. “The soft textures, neutral tones, and the way the photos captured the bond between mother and baby—it was everything I wanted.”
After a quick consultation call where we discussed her vision, wardrobe options, and how the session would flow, Megan knew the 90-minute drive to Baltimore would be worth it.
The Day of the Session
Megan arrived at my Mount Washington studio on a crisp Saturday evening, glowing with excitement. We had planned two distinct looks for her session: a stunning green dress that complemented her shape and a chic blazer-and-pants set that added a modern, sophisticated touch.
“I felt so comfortable during the shoot,” Megan said. “Ellie guided me through every pose and made sure I felt confident and relaxed.”
We focused on capturing her connection with her baby and the quiet strength of motherhood.
The Results: Timeless Memories
When Megan saw her final images, she was overwhelmed.
“They were everything I had hoped for and more,” she said. “Each photo feels so authentic and meaningful. I’m so glad I made the trip.”
Megan chose to display her favorite images in a handcrafted Luxe Album and also ordered a set of matted prints for her baby’s nursery—pieces she plans to treasure forever. Here's a sneak peek of one of her stunning photos, showcasing her powerful and confident presence in the blazer-and-pants set.
