Sweetly Stitched Images, Northwest Indiana Photographer

Hey beautiful people! I have been loving being able to start this journey into luxury photography, and one of the coolest parts about it has been curating my client closet and being able to help moms look & feel their best by offering wardrobe help and styling to create the magical photos of their dreams. Sometimes I just go into my client closet and thumb through the gowns and shot ideas will play through my head in a cinematic reel. I absolutely have LOVED building this from the ground up and hope to grow it even more in the coming years!

With that said, I thought I would share some of my favorite picks for the upcoming spring & summer seasons. This way I can help my local clients or vacation clients alike take a little peek into some of their choices, but also give any mama out there an idea of what’s out there in the world these days and inspire them for their next dreamy photoshoot….

So, in no particular order…Here’s some of my picks and what I love about them…

#1- Light Baby Pink Off the Shoulder Gown

Color: The lightest, creamiest, dreamiest pink shade.

Material/Style: Chiffon Gown

My most favorite thing about it: It’s the epitome of spring and summer as far as the color goes. I can just picture a beautiful mama nose to nose with her toddler amongst blowing trees and a light breeze.

#2- Pink Smocked Dress

Color: Blush Pink

Material/Style: Chiffon, Smocked Bodice Dress

Favorite thing about it: It looks like poetry in a dress. There is a gathered shoulder detail as well the cuffs and skirt that play together beautifully. I see mom walking hand in hand with her kids and hubby…happy as can be.

#3- Pink & Orange Floral Dress

Color: Dark Pink, Light Orange, White Floral

Material/Style: Cotton Blend/ Puff Sleeve Smocked Dress

Favorite thing about it: It’s fun and beautiful, but in a subdued way. I could see a mama sitting on her couch cuddling with her family or even giving her baby a sink bath in it. It’s not super fancy, but that’s its charm.

#4- Dreamy Tulle Gown

Color: Multi Pastel Floral

Material/Style: Tulle & Poly Blend V-Neck Smocked Waist

Favorite thing about it: It’s absolutely stunning and a dream to photograph. Gives me visions of the most magical maternity session on the planet.

#5- Ruffled Floral Cut Out Dress

Color: Baby Pink, Lavender, & White Floral

Material/Style: Chiffon Boho-esque Dress

Favorite thing about it: The ruffles and gathering throughout make this one of my all time favorites. It also has cut outs on the sides of it which gives it such a pop of personality. I see mom looking out the window with her babies around her and in her arms.

#6- Baby Blue Ruffled Skirt Polka Dot Dress

Color: Baby Blue

Material/Style: Chiffon Boho-esque Dress

Favorite thing about it: This dress is absolutely breathtaking, and it has a TON of detail without making it look like too much detail. It has smocked sleeves, ribbon details on the shoulder. Subtle polka dots, and a ruffled skirt. It’s a stunning dress for an artistic, feminine soul. I see it outside, inside, & all around… & pairs beautifully with bare feet. 🙂

#7- Puff Sleeve Floral Tea Time Dress

Color: White with Blue & Gold Florals

Material/Style: Poly Blend Boho Gown

Favorite thing about it: The sleeves and tiny ruffle details throughout. I feel like you could see mama having a tea party with her little ones. Fancy hat optional. Ha!

#8- Off Shoulder 70’s-esque Floral Gown

Color: Baby Pink, Light Olive Floral

Material/Style: Chiffon Boho-esque Gown

Favorite thing about it: It’s kind of a wild card! It has a very 70’s looking print and color palette, but it’s so dreamy, comfy, and the off the shoulder element makes it so feminine. I see a maternity session with hubby on a breezy day with lots of movement.

#9- White Flowy Eyelet Dress

Color: Pure White

Material/Style: Cotton Blend, Puff Sleeve, Very Feminine Dress

Favorite thing about it: The epitome of summer! The material makes it perfect for a hot day and would lend itself to mom at the beach playing & dancing with her babes in bare feet.

#10- Off Shoulder Lacey Dream Gown

Color: Off White

Material/Style: Eyelash Boho Lace Off the Shoulder Gown

Favorite thing about it: The lace makes it one of the most romantic choices in my opinion. I absolutely adore this one. It’s so versatile…. I can see it just as much indoors as out, from a beachy maternity session to mom and dad laughing with the kids on the couch. You can’t go wrong with this one.

And that’s it for now cuties! Again, I am SO EXCITED to share this with my Northwest Indiana Chicagoland Sweetly Stitched Images mamas as well as the baby wardrobe and props I have for newborns!

Client Closet is offered for mom and baby for ANY full session, so if you’re looking to book a Northwest Indiana Photographer with a high-end experience and dreamy images look no further. I’d love to capture you and your beautiful family!
