McLean Newborn and Maternity Photography Studio
Welcoming a baby is a small miracle—and it deserves artwork that feels as special as the moment. My studio focuses on McLean newborn and maternity photography, crafting elegant, heartfelt portraits that celebrate the glow of pregnancy and the first days of your child’s life. With 20+ years behind the camera, I blend gentle posing, studio lighting, and patient care so you look relaxed and timeless in every frame.
For ten consecutive years, Expertise has named me among the region’s best, and more than 600 five-star Google reviews from McLean and Northern Virginia families speak to the experience you can expect—warm, calm, and beautifully detailed. If you’re dreaming of heirloom images you’ll treasure for decades, I’d be honored to create them for you.
Timeless Art for Generations
McLean Maternity Photography
Every McLean maternity session I create is built around comfort, confidence, and gorgeous light. We’ll map out a look that suits you—romantic, modern, or glam—then style the session so your images feel unmistakably you.
Session styles you can choose from:
- Fine-art maternity — museum-worthy portraits with sculpted light and elegant, minimalist compositions.
- Outdoor maternity — golden-hour images at McLean favorites such as Great Falls Overlook, Clemyjontri Park’s gardens, and along the Potomac trails.
- Studio classics — clean, light-controlled portraits with luxe backdrops and custom lighting setups.
- Editorial & fashion-forward — flowing fabrics, dramatic silhouettes, and magazine-inspired posing.
What’s included:
- A wardrobe suite gowns, robes, and accessories for moms-to-be.
- Personal styling & look-planning so everything works beautifully together.
- Guided posing and expression coaching.
- Optional professional hair & makeup with trusted artists.
McLean Newborn Photographer
Newborn days are brief and beautiful—their sleepy stretches, tiny lashes, and soft sighs change almost overnight. My McLean sessions are quiet, unhurried, and baby-led, designed so you can simply exhale while I create clean, timeless portraits in a warm, temperature-controlled studio.
- All the essentials are ready for you — thoughtfully curated wraps, outfits, bonnets, and simple props (no packing list needed).
- Calm, classic setups — neutral palettes and soft textures that keep the spotlight on your baby’s features.
- Gentle, safety-first posing — guided by an experienced professional trained in newborn handling and soothing techniques.

Finding the right fit for McLean newborn and maternity photography means trusting someone with your most tender moments. Here’s how local parents describe their experience with Nataly Danilova Photography.
“Nataly made our session feel unhurried and luxurious. She styled everything, guided us with easy direction, and somehow captured expressions I didn’t even know I was making. Our album feels like a love letter to this season.”
— A.L., Salona Village, McLean
“Our daughter was nine days old, and Nataly worked with such gentle confidence—warming the studio, swaddling perfectly, and keeping baby calm the entire time. We cried (in the best way) when we saw those tiny profiles and fuzzy shoulders preserved forever.”
— M.C., Chesterbrook, McLean
“I wanted elegant, editorial maternity portraits without feeling posed. Nataly’s lighting and coaching were spot on—I looked like myself, just…glowing. These are the photos I’ll show my daughter one day.”
— R.S., Great Falls
“We booked the bump-to-baby package and it was worth every penny. Consistent style, zero stress, and beautiful wall art that already feels like part of our home.”
— J.T., McLean Central Park
“Professional, patient, and prepared. From complimentary gowns to curated backdrops, everything was thought through. We’ve already recommended Nataly to three other McLean families.”
— N.W., Tysons
