About Mamahood Photography - Maternity & Family Photography
Although I did not always have a camera in my hand, my passion for capturing beautiful family moments began when I started taking pictures of my son and husband, who is also a professional photographer. My interest in maternity photography was piqued after taking a class with the incredibly talented Diana Robles of Loveprint Photography.
As a cancer survivor, I unfortunately did not have the opportunity to carry my own child while undergoing treatment. However, capturing the special bond between a mother and her unborn child has become a source of therapeutic joy for me.
I find the process of creating a new life to be incredibly beautiful and I feel grateful for the chance to transform these brief moments into cherished memories. I welcome you into my studio to capture your own unique journey into motherhood!

Testimonials
“I had the pleasure to have my maternity photos done by Gina at Mamahood. It was an amazing production I just brought myself and belly and the rest was taken care of. Hair and makeup were prearranged which left me feeling and looking like a queen. Once in front of the camera Gina was caring and such a professional she made me feel comfortable and helped me along the way to pose to achieve the desired shots. AND WOW can I say that after the shoot we looked at all the photos and even the raw unedited photos were a piece of art. Once receiving the finished product me, my husband, family and friends were blown away. RUN to book your shoot, maternity, family or any photography need she is the best!!!”

“Gina was amazing! I desperately wanted family photos but didn’t know where to start, what to wear or where to take them. Gina helped with the whole process! She gave me resources for ideas of colors to wear and made the photo session so laid back and easy. My toddler was a struggle the whole time and you would never know because she still got all the beautiful shots and did it without any stress. The photos exceeded my expectations and I felt so beautiful in the lighting and the final photos. I get so many compliments when people see them. She is wonderful to work with and will forever be my go to photographer!”

“Gina is the absolute best, and we cannot recommend her enough! Leading up to our session, Gina was incredibly helpful in suggesting locations for the best photos including the times for the best lighting. We have a toddler, and as you can imagine it can be challenging taking family photos. Gina came prepared to grab our little’s attention; not only captured the best moments for our family but even managed to get photos for just my wife and I! Gina is detailed and knows how to work with her canvas, background, lighting, timing, and audience! The results were nothing short of breathtaking and came out better than we could’ve imagined. The desert is beautiful but having the right person to capture the moment is a gift. Thank you, Gina!”

“Gina did an amazing job! She came with a plan but also listened to requests and crazy ideas from my daughter and me. She really captured my kids' personalities in the pictures! She was patient with both of my kids and took her time to get the perfect shot without taking too much time and losing the kids' attention. She was very professional and her turnaround time for getting pictures back to me was great. I would 100% recommend Gina to anyone who wants family pictures done.”
