Are you expecting during the chillier, winter months but still looking to have maternity photos taken? The Buffalo and Erie County Gardens in Buffalo, NY is a perfect location for all your baby bump in winter photo desires! Warm, full of lush greenery, and a variety of different rooms/spaces to photograph in, it is a cozier option than shivering through your session in the snow (though I personally do also love a great snowy session!). Just to be sure to plan ahead if you’re considering this as your portrait location of choice. The Botanical Gardens now only allows portraits to take place (with admission fee) during weekdays. Weekend sessions (yes, even portrait sessions) and weddings require a reservation slot AND $150 fee (paid to the Gardens). And if you do go, please be considerate of the Gardens, plants and other visitors, too!
Luckily for us, Clint and Jenessa were back home in Buffalo, NY (visiting from their current residence in Brooklyn, NY) over the holidays and our schedules aligned for us to do a weekday session. Having also gotten to know a bit more about them and interests before photographing their Dino/Geo-themed wedding, I knew this would be a perfect backdrop for their maternity session and I’m sooooo excited to share these with you today!
