Modern, editorial maternity photo studio based in Los Angeles

FINE ART MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHY

For women looking for chic, strong, and simple images to document this momentous stage in life.

Hi There, I’m Katie!

I have been photographing women for the past 10 years. Specializing in photography that celebrates womanhood, my goal is to create modern imagery that makes you feel like you’re in Vogue magazine.

Countless women have told me that they almost didn't do a maternity shoot because they thought it would be too "cheesy." But here at La Rousse Photo, we are anti-cheesy! Instead you’ll feel classy, timeless, and chic.

I’m also pretty obsessed with fashion and love the styling aspect of photography. If you’re stuck on what to wear, have no fear…I’ve got you covered with a wardrobe closet full of specially curated pieces.

Women’s bodies are powerful and beautiful. You are capable of amazing things, and I want to capture your grace and strength during this special time of your journey through womanhood.

Katie has the absolute best energy and made me feel 100% comfortable and heard throughout the entire process.

I was super reluctant and nervous about taking maternity photos but after seeing Katie’s work and speaking with her about her process I decided to lean in and embrace the opportunity (mostly because I was worried I would regret not doing it). She helped immensely with styling and posing me and was warm and patient when I felt out of my element. The photos turned out to be beautiful and I truly could not recommend her more.

You know you’re in good hands and you know that the photos are going to come out even better than you expected.

I absolutely loved my maternity shoot experience with La Rousse Photo. I loved brainstorming ideas together before the shoot. I loved picking the outfits. I loved getting my makeup and hair done with her stylist and finally, I just loved getting photographed by Katie. She is so experienced and professional. Also, communication from beginning to end is excellent.

Had an easy, breezy, wonderful maternity photo experience with Katie and La Rousse!

Katie's got an expert eye and great taste, not just for photography (which is what drew me to her work initially) but also for styling. She and her HMU made me feel super comfy and relaxed, even amidst the vulnerability of the task at hand. The final photos are GORGEOUS! 10/10 would highly recommend to anyone looking to book.

Katie was so wonderful to work with! Her photography style was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn’t be happier with how my photos turned out! I reached out to her last minute and she got me in quickly.

I understand this experience is an investment for many. If you’d like to utilize a payment plan, Ioffer options through Affirm - where you can split payments over 6, 12, or 18 months. Typically the 6-month plan is no-interest. If you prefer to pay in full at the time of your photo reveal appointment, I accept all major credit cards or Zelle.
