Sometimes, the most effortlessly meaningful photos come from the simplest setups. No elaborate props or Pinterest mood board overload—just love, connection, and a little denim. Ty and Teddy wanted exactly that for their casual maternity photos at the 701 Studios in Seattle. It’s their first baby (a boy! 🩵), and they wanted to keep things low-key: barefoot, soft lighting, and just the two of them soaking in this moment together. They didn’t want anything fancy—just the two of them, some good light, and a little denim. Honestly? That’s my favorite kind of session.
Why Simple Wins
Casual maternity sessions are simple and timeless, and that’s exactly why they work so well. The denim gives off matching energy, even without matching outfits, a feel that I love. It leaves all the space for your bump to shine through—nothing extra or distracting. Just you, your person, and this wild chapter you’re about to step into.
Speaking of nothing extra, the 701 Studios were so ideal for this session. Big dreamy windows, clean white walls, and the kind of natural light that makes everything feel soft and glowy. It’s the kind of space that doesn’t need much to make magic happen, which made it the perfect backdrop for Ty and Teddy’s chill vibe.
“I’m Obsessed. I’ve probably spent at least 2 hours looking through them over and over again. I love them so much.”

Ty and Teddy’s energy together was so soft and natural, like they’d been doing this whole “deeply in love” thing for years. She just melted into him during the quiet moments… my heart. And when they looked at each other, it was like no one else was in the room.
Something is compelling about documenting this stage, before life shifts into something entirely new. You can already feel how much love is there, bubbling up in these in-between moments. They don’t even know yet just how much love is about to fill their home. But honestly? You can already see it happening right here.
