A Cozy Fall Maternity Session at Parc Michel-Chartrand

There’s something magical about autumn in Quebec — the golden leaves, the crisp air, and that soft, diffused light that makes every photo feel timeless. We recently had the chance to capture a beautiful fall maternity session at Parc Michel-Chartrand in Longueuil, and it quickly became one of our favorites of the season.

Set against trails lined with golden foliage, Anna-Maria and Greg’s maternity session was full of warmth, laughter, and anticipation. They wanted something that felt natural and relaxed, and Michel-Chartrand Park delivered — from quiet paths to wide open spaces, it was the perfect backdrop to capture the connection between these parents-to-be. We’re so grateful they agreed to share a few of their favorite moments with us.

Montreal Maternity Photographers Based in the Eastern Townships

While we photograph many maternity sessions in and around Montreal, we actually live in the Eastern Townships — and we’re always on the road! From Estrie to Ottawa, we work with growing families all across Quebec and Ontario. Whether you’re planning a session in a local park or want to document your journey somewhere more remote, we’re always up for the drive.

Why Choose a Fall Maternity Session?

Fall offers the perfect mix of soft light and stunning scenery. There’s less heat (hello, pregnancy comfort!), fewer crowds, and a color palette that naturally complements the warm tones of parenthood. Plus, cozy sweaters, flowing dresses, and scarves always photograph beautifully this time of year.
