Why You Should Hire Destiney Ford Photography For Your Maternity Session

What sets us a part from the other maternity photographers around the Metro-Atlanta area?

Unlike most of our competitors, we offer a fine-art editing style so our beautiful, expecting mamas look like a storybook princess. We take mediocre locations and make magic happen! Sometimes our mamas have us drive out to their front yard or we end up in the woods in the middle of January, surrounded by ugly bare trees, but you’d never know it.We transform what you see in post production.

Packages include any venue fees! If there’s a venue that you love that charges per hour or session, DFP absorbs the cost so you don’t have to!

Each maternity client has access to our extensive collection of maternity gowns. With a variety of styles, colors, and sizes, we have something for everyone!

DFP guides your every step! You never have to wonder how to stand, where to look, or what to do with your hands. I have crafted a seamless workflow to make your session run as effortlessly as possible every single time!

We also don’t stop at just offering digital images! We have digital collections that offer digitals AND breathtaking keepsakes. You don’t have to worry about crazy colors and weird tones with items from our partnering professional printing lab. If you want to print elsewhere, we understand! Our packages include a lifetime print release to every client for their final images.

Clients get to choose the images you love. DFP offers every client a proofing gallery to choose the images they want to include in their downloadable gallery. Clients aren’t stuck with what WE love. They get to choose what THEY love.

Your spouse + children are welcome to take part in your session, but the focus will be on mama! This is YOUR time to shine.

Does your gown not fit the way you hoped? Sweating? Have blemishes? Don’t stress the details! DFP takes care of all of that in post-production! All you have to do is relax and enjoy the spotlight!

We serve Newnan, Fayetteville, Senoia, Peachtree City, Atlanta, Marietta, Dallas, Lagrange, Whitesburg, Carrollton, Bremen, Hogansville, Grantville, and many more!

DFP recommends scheduling your maternity session for a time when you’re between 28-34 weeks along to avoid excessive levels of discomfort, going into labor early, and it gives us more time to get you on the schedule if we end up getting rained out the first go-round. We also recommend booking months in advance. DFP books up quickly!

5 Reasons to Book a Winter Session // Destiney Ford Photography // Newnan photographer // Carrollton photographer // Atlanta photographer

WINTER SESSIONS?!

When we think about getting pictures made, most of us automatically picture florals or fall foliage. Right? We want warm weather with something blooming and frilly outfits or light sweaters and gorgeous, bold leaves in the background. But what if I told you there are plenty of reasons why you should take advantage of winter sessions.

REASON #1

The golden light! OH-EM-GEE! Since the trees are bare, that beautiful sunlight sets behind the trees and creates this beautiful, warm glow that radiates in every image. This fun tidbit actually brings me to reason number two!

REASON #2

You don’t have to wait until 8-9 PM to get a gorgeous sunset session. How many of you scheduled your family portraits and your photographer put you down for 7:30 PM? We love golden hour and unfortunately that means spring and summer sessions happen much later in the evening. That can be tough if you have little ones when they’re typically in bed at the time of the session’s start time.

REASON #3

Less humidity and heat! That’s right, Dad. You don’t have to worry about sweating through your nice clothes. Ladies, that also means you’re not going to lose the curl in your hair or stress about frizz.

REASON #4

You can layer! Layering clothing and accessories adds more detail to your images. The different textures and the different level dimensions add so much to your image that you don’t even realize! It actually makes your image MORE interesting to look at.

REASON #5

More availability! For some photographers, especially DFP, scheduling during peak seasons can be tricky unless you book in advance. Scheduling during January and February is so much easier since that’s usually when photographers have more downtime.

Christmas Senior Portraits by Destiney Ford Photography // Ashley Park // Newnan photographer

These Christmas minis were perfection. I have been working with these girls since September and I love the work we have created together.

Ashley Park lights this Christmas tree every year and it creates the perfect backdrop for portraits. I typically photograph families here, but I thought this picture-perfect background would be gorgeous for my senior spokesmodels. It certainly did not disappoint.

Senior portraits are my jam. As we enter 2023, my goal is to focus on high school and college senior portraits. Senior portraits don’t have to be traditional either. If you have an idea in mind, let’s chat! I’d love to work with you.
