Preeti Moberg, a wedding blogger, whom recently learned she was pregnant, she wanted to tell people her way: Through a celebratory blog post centered around an artistic, personalized maternity photoshoot.
In her blog post introducing the beautiful series, Preeti writes,
A couple of months ago I had a little baby boy. But before this adorable troublemaker showed up on Earth, I wanted to do a maternity shoot that was something special.
A maternity shoot that showed the glitter and culture of India, but also a photo shoot that was more than the classical whimsical…
I wanted to see fine art meets maternity while maintaining the joys part of being pregnant [and] happy.
The mommy-to-be scoured Pinterest and Google for inspiration and rounded up a crew of talented women to help create her dream shoot.
After heaps of planning and preparation, the group got to work, with a photographer named Shhivika Chauhan at the helm of the project.
As you’ll see below, the shoot turned out to be gorgeous. More so, perhaps, than anyone could have imagined. Ladies: The bar has officially been raised!
Preeti says she “spent a lot of time on Pinterest and Google Images for inspiration” for the maternity shoot.
She realized that there were very few photographs of pregnant Indian women to be found.
Preeti realized that she wanted to make her culture the primary theme of the photoshoot.
Wedding blogger by trade, Preeti had an access to professional contacts that she called on for help.
It indeed was a very stylish, modern and yet traditionally themed event! It definitely was a spectacular photoshoot!
Everything from the theme of the party, to the traditional saree that she was rocking, all the way down to the sweets: all so magical!
Preeti’s husband even posed for several of the beautiful photographs!
The shoot was held at The Lighthouse at Glen Cove Marina in Vallejo, California.
Which is undoubtedly a perfect setting for the shoot’s exotic vibe!
Preeti looked nothing short of stunning, and the shoot turned out exactly as she’d envisioned.
Nothing Short Of Beautiful!
