COLUMBUS OHIO MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHY

WHERE YOUR LEGACY BEGINS

Vicki Sands Photography offers a high-end, full-service maternity photography experience in Columbus, Ohio. Designed for the mother who desires to celebrate her pregnancy with intention, I create portraits that feel timeless, feminine, and deeply personal.

I am honored to serve families throughout New Albany, Westerville, Granville, Dublin, Powell, Upper Arlington, Gahanna, and surrounding areas ensuring that this fleeting season is preserved as fine art.

CELEBRATING THE ANTICIPATION

BEFORE YOUR WORLD BEAUTIFULLY SHIFTS—LET'S PRESERVE THE MAGIC

There is something sacred about this season—the quiet anticipation and the profound transformation into motherhood. Having photographed nearly 5,000 babies in their first 48 hours of life, I understand this journey intimately. I know how quickly these moments pass, and as a mother who has watched her own children grow into young adulthood, I know how much you will eventually crave the memory of these days.

My approach is gentle and intentional. From our first planning conversation in Columbus to the moment we reveal your custom wall art or a curated album, every detail is designed to make you feel radiant. Because one day, your child will look at these portraits and see the love that surrounded them before they even arrived.

I'M HERE TO GUIDE YOU

Your questions answered with care.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO SCHEDULE MY MATERNITY SESSION?

The ideal window for maternity portraits is between 28-33 weeks. This allows us to capture your beautiful bump while you are still comfortable moving and posing. I recommend reaching out early in your second trimester to secure your date on my calendar.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT TO INVEST IN MATERNITY PORTRAITS?

Revealing your beautiful portraits is my absolute favorite part. My most popular maternity collections, which include a blend of finished artwork and digitals for safekeeping, start at $1,350. During our reveal session, I will help you design bespoke wall art and heirloom albums so your memories live in your home, not just on your phone.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR MY MATERNITY SESSION?

You don't have to worry about a thing. I provide a curated wardrobe guide and personal styling to ensure your look is timeless. Whether we are shooting in a natural light studio in Columbus or at a golden-hour outdoor location, we will select pieces that make you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself.

WHERE DO MATERNITY SESSIONS TAKE PLACE?

Most of my maternity portraits are photographed in a local Columbus studio, where we have beautiful light and elegant simplicity. If you're drawn to an outdoor session, I have stunning locations across Columbus and surrounding areas I can share with you during our planning meeting.

WHAT IF I'M FEELING VULNERABLE ABOUT BEING PHOTOGRAPHED PREGNANT?

I completely understand. The physical and emotional changes of pregnancy can make you feel vulnerable, and being photographed might feel overwhelming.

But here's what I know: I've never heard a single mom say she regretted documenting these moments or any chapter of motherhood. Not once.

My goal is to help you see yourself the way I see you—radiant, beautiful, and creating life. I'll guide you through flattering poses, help you feel pampered and confident, and show you just how stunning you are in this moment.

CAN MY PARTNER AND/OR CHILDREN BE INCLUDED IN MATERNITY PORTRAITS?

Absolutely! Your maternity session can be just you, you and your partner, or your entire family. Many of my clients' love capturing both—intimate portraits celebrating you and the baby you're carrying, plus family portraits welcoming this new little love.

DO YOU OFFER MATERNITY AND NEWBORN PACKAGES?

Many of my clients love documenting both the anticipation and the arrival—maternity portraits followed by newborn sessions that create a beautiful visual story of your journey into parenthood. While I don't require booking both together, I'm happy to discuss options that work for your family.

"My experience with Vicki was fantastic. She was truly welcoming and brought the best out in me for capturing natural and genuine images. I just can't get over how beautiful the portraits turned out."
