The Maternity Experience

breathtaking • moments • captured

let’s document this incredible time in your journey of motherhood and showcase just how beautiful you are…

Growing a baby is simultaneously one of the most miraculous and exhausting things a woman can do. I firmly believe that God creates life (every.single.one) and to be a mom is to have a front row seat of this process! Maternity portraits are a way to freeze this incredible time in your life so that you can always have those memories of your little one on the inside. Mama, my hope is to help make you feel as beautiful and strong as you really are!

Let's start this conversation! I want to know everything, from when you're due, what you're having (if it's not a surprise, of course), and what you're loving about this experience as a mom-to-be! 

Reach out and let's chat about the vision for your session and what you'd love to see. We will find the best date for you, and get you locked in on the calendar. The fun is just beginning! 

1. Say Hello

3. ask me Anything

I am your guide throughout this entire process and I am here to help. I want you to ask questions and know that I will always be there for you. You are not alone in this maternity journey. 

4. portrait day!

Your session is finally here! We are going to make you feel like an absolute rockstar. We will slowly move through the session, making sure every piece is in place. I want you to feel in the moment with your little one to be and just enjoy this time together. While the session is joyful, I also just want you to feel at peace. Your little one will be coming so soon!

5. your photographs

Yay! Your session is done! You can expect your proofing gallery within two weeks of your session. After wiping the tears away from looking at the amazing family you are growing, you will select your digital collection package and use your artwork credit to purchase amazing artwork for your walls!

Lori is such a pleasure to work with. She is so sweet + friendly, and she is GREAT at what she does! We’ve trusted her to capture three special occasions (so far) so believe me when I say that she NEVER disappoints! The pictures have all come out so beautifully, every time, even with a newborn that didn’t give her the easiest time! She is very patient and persistent with kiddos, that’s forsure! Lori has an awesome studio, with plenty of great maternity dresses, backdrops, newborn wraps, props, and accessories. She also has some very nice land for great outdoor photos. She quickly and kindly helps with every question I’ve had and overall, she makes the whole process very simple and easy. She definitely hasn’t seen the last of me and my family! For all our future pregnancies/family photos, we will always pick Lori Pickens ❤️📸. ~Victoriah


Lori is the absolute best photographer you can have! She is a joy to work with and she will listen to what you want and then give you that AND more than you could ever ask for in her final product. In addition to being the best photographer for your family, she is also extremely talented in working special events/milestones. Thank you Lori for capturing our family photos and special events we’ve had along the way! Highly recommended her service to anyone looking to capture and cherish those special moments in your life! ~Bindi


We loved our maternity photos so much, we decided to upgrade to Lori's Bump to Baby plan.  Can't wait to have her capture our sweet baby girl's whole first year.  ~ Taylor


Lori is so talented! From in studio portraits to on location destinations, it is clear her skill and her passion for photography are unmatched. Our maternity photos were perfect; she is so creative and knows the best locations. For fall family photos, she took us to a pumpkin patch and pulled out the best smiles from our 4 month old. Our favorite photographer by far! ~Bekah W.


Lori did a fantastic job on my wedding pictures! She really captured the essence of the day. I also did my maternity and newborn photos with her and love the memories she's captured for my family! ~Scarlett
