North Carolina Maternity Pregnancy Photographer

Mama Sumra | 34 Weeks Along | Near Cleveland Ohio


Today, I am thrilled to share the heartwarming story of Mama Sumra's maternity session with us at Ity Bity Photography. Traveling all the way from North Carolina, Sumra entrusted us with capturing another precious pregnancy milestone in her growing family's journey.


Our relationship with Sumra goes back several years when she came to our previous photography studio during her pregnancy with their first baby girl Inaaya. Now Inaaya is a lively & beautiful four-year-old girl. She was only a few days old when I last saw her, so I was SO excited to see her again & see how much she has grown! It was such a joyous reunion as I welcomed them all back & to an even better studio space in Avon Ohio.


As mom first arrived, she couldn't help but pause for a moment outside to snap a picture of our front door, adorned with one of her daughter's newborn portraits—a timeless reminder of the bond we share with her family. Still one of my absolute favorite newborn photography images to date as she was photographed wearing her mama's colorful wedding gown.


Planning for this maternity session was a breeze as mom selected from our array of beautiful maternity gowns in our client closet. She picked some of the most beautiful & colorful dresses we had which made the fun anticipation of working with her even stronger. With everything set in motion, our talented hair and makeup glam team worked their magic, enhancing Mama Sumra's natural beauty to absolute radiance.

The session was not just about Mama Sumra; it was a family affair. Dad and their daughter Inaaya joined in, adding to the magic of the moment.

Together, we captured clean and classic images that will undoubtedly stand the test of time, preserving this special chapter in their lives for generations to come.

Inaaya's infectious giggles filled the studio as we shared silly moments, capturing her natural smiles that will forever adorn their family album.


As the session drew to a close, there was a bittersweet feeling knowing we had to say goodbye. Yet, we were immensely grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a significant moment in this family's journey.


To Mama Sumra and her beautiful family, we extend our heartfelt thanks for allowing us to be part of this cherished chapter. We hope your mini trip to Cleveland was filled with joy and unforgettable memories. Safe travels back to North Carolina, and until we meet again, know that you'll always have a special place in our hearts.


With love,

Shannon & the Ity Bity Photography Stork Squad
