The Pregnancy Project
PREGNANCY MORE THAN EVER, IS WHEN YOU SHOULD BE CELEBRATED...
Pregnant women struggle now more than ever before to keep it all together. We're supposed to have careers, be pregnant, have babies, take care of the home, grocery shop, make meals, shave our legs. It's no wonder that 1 in 5 new moms battle with depression. We are trying to do it all and somewhere in the mix, we feel lost. There are too many amazing mamas to be ignored, too amazing not to be listened to, and too beautiful not to be celebrated. It’s time to start CELEBRATING, your pregnancy journey! I would love you to join me on this adventure of empowering you during your pregnancy. Let's inspire other moms with your story, but most importantly, to inspire you.
For 2022, I’ll be creating stunning portraits of 25 pregnant women culminating in an exhibition and celebration with these moms and their stories.
A CELEBRATION OF THE DIVERSITY, STRENGTH, BEAUTY, ESSENCE, AND WISDOM OF MOTHERS ALL AROUND.
Through the Pregnancy Project, we can…
Show that beauty doesn’t diminish with pregnancy and that growing a human being is one of the most gorgeous times in a woman's life.
Highlight the beauty of your unique pregnancy and bond with your growing baby.
Tell your story about what it means to be a mom in this busy world today.
Celebrate your beauty and appreciate every moment along this motherhood journey.
Whether you feel invisible in your pregnancy journey, empowered or somewhere in between, know that You are Loved & Needed & Your Story is Important! We intend to disrupt & transform the way we are viewed (or forgotten) by society by putting out beautiful, authentic images and real pregnancy stories of ourselves.
This is your chance to be seen and heard!
WHY MOMS TO BE, WHY ME AND WHY NOW?
I started my maternity photography business after I became a mom and I wanted to create something very special as a gift for all mamas to enjoy. Not only to have stunning images of themselves but to feel celebrated and loved during a time where many of us women can feel the least beautiful. Often during a time where we feel the most forgotten.
It will be special, fulfilling, and transformational. Your pregnancy story is uniquely beautiful...and I want to show you how amazing you are during this season and celebrate you! Join me on an incredible adventure.
WHO CAN TAKE PART IN THE PROJECT?
I would love to photograph a wide variety of pregnant women. Let’s create a tapestry of stunning images of women of different shapes and sizes; women with different tastes, from different backgrounds, and with different views of life.
The Christine Sara Portrait experience is an exciting, pampering, indulgent adventure, custom-tailored, and focused on YOU and the journey of your pregnancy.
Think about how you want to be captured, what does your pregnancy journey look like? Our passion is to take the everyday new mom and give her an unforgettable celebrity-style, magazine photoshoot experience.
It's about so much more than just "taking pretty pictures." Our hope is for you to truly reconnect with yourself, see your beauty & spirit the way others already see you and empower yourself in this new season as the amazing mom that you are.
