What Mother’s Day Means To Us

By Blog

Happy Mother’s Day To All Our Moms

When you look up the term “mother” in google, a few definitions might come up. Our favorite one is the definition that reads “to bring up (a child) with care and affection.” To be a mother is more than just giving birth; it’s living up to the role. To be a mother is knowing when to step in, what groceries to buy, what parent-teacher meetings to attend, and so much more. Most importantly, to be a mother is knowing that a good sum of your effort will go unnoticed, just because “it’s your job”. While it can be difficult,  we hope you all know that Luela Kaba and her creative team see you. We see you and we hear you.

To Luela Kaba and her creative team, Mother’s day means feeling appreciated. Indulge in the power of our glammed motherhood photoshoot experiences and trust us as Luela Kaba takes care of you and helps you step into that bigger power we love to call confidence. We, Luela Kaba Photography, owe every imaginable stepping stone to you, our mothers; and we intend to give back to you all. Happy Mother’s Day to all of our moms!

Rydel Lynch On Her Navigation Through Motherhood

By Blog

Rydel Lynch Has Some Advice For Mothers… And We’re Listening!

Singer and recently proclaimed mother, Rydel Lynch, has kept us all on the tip of our toes as she brought us along her journey through pregnancy. Finally, she’s shown us her adorable baby boy! Not only has motherhood been a new concept for the star but she’s managed to learn a thing or two that could definitely help other new moms – and soon-to-be mom’s as well! Word on the street is that if you give your newborn a breastfeeding schedule from the get-go, there will be much less mid-day snacking from the baby as well as a decent decrease in sleepless nights. This immediate schedule teaches the baby’s body when to be hungry rather than feeding on breast milk whenever they want to. This concept seems revolutionary, other moms should test this out and tell us what response they get! Better yet, if you’ve used this tactic on your child when they were young, let us know so we can get another word for it. Implementing this at such a young age seems genius and well-thought-out. This encourages structure at such a young and impressionable age, and that’s what matters most. Rydel continues to share her insight on motherhood and how she’s finding her way about it on her various social media: Instagram, Tiktok, etc. You can also follow this beautiful new family through her four brothers, mother, father, and extended cousins.

Let’s Talk Gender Reveals

By Blog

Gender Reveals:
Are You a Minimalist or an Extremist?

Working with aspiring parents, we admire the opportunity to watch a family grow right before our eyes. Between Luela Kaba’s family, motherhood, and maternity photoshoots, it’s bittersweet to watch a client go on to live a beautiful life with their new family! However, Luela Kaba and her creative team are one big family; and our clients are our extended family. With that being said, revealing the gender of a bun in the oven is one of the biggest moments of soon-to-be parents! So here are some ideas as far as how creative you can get.

luela photography maternity photoshoot phoenix arizona

When it comes to gender reveals, it can go two ways, (1) a minimal gathering with close family or (2) a grand kickoff with the whole crew! But in this case, let’s start with the first.

Minimal, Small, Meaningful:

For a small gathering with family only 10 people are really necessary. This makes room for easy flowing conversation, lots of photo opportunities, and isn’t too difficult to cater to. You could reveal the gender by doing any of the following:

  • Cut a cake! The filling of the center would be the color designated to each gender.
  • Pop a balloon! There could be confetti with the designated color within it.
  • Set a smoke bomb! Have a friend who has previous knowledge of the gender decorate the smoke bomb so that there are no spoilers.

Grand, Plentiful, Dramatic:

Having a huge party for this kind of announcement seems like loads of fun! So many loved ones would be there to celebrate, mingle, and welcome your parenthood with open arms. Lots of candids would be taken and that would be the perfect opportunity to tell your little one “That’s your third cousin! That’s your fifth auntie!” and so so so much more. The atmosphere would be through the roof and as parents-to-be, you would be surrounded by endless support and love. You could reveal the gender by doing any of the following:

  • Fireworks! As the sun goes down, this would be a perfect opportunity to see some beautiful visuals while finding out the gender of your baby.
  • Team games! Have the guests split up into teams and engage in an activity that would reveal the gender of the baby.
  • Pinata! Use a huge pinata and have that release party confetti in the color designated to each color.

Hopefully, this helped open up a whole new world. If not for the memories, do it for the amazing photography that could come from it! Don’t forget to book Luela Kaba for maternity, motherhood, family, or boudoir photography.

Client Customs and Why We Do Them

By Blog

Fabrics, Backgrounds, and Tones:

Why does it Matter?

When it comes to photography, Luela Kaba keeps a keen eye on what a perfect portrait must look like. Finding and keeping harmony between fabrics, backgrounds, and tones is the secret to pleasing the viewer. Keeping a clear, flowing connection throughout the photo makes for a complete and satisfying photo, leaving the photographer, the model, and anyone who sees it on a very happy note. Throughout a maternity photoshoot, it’s important to establish a continuous aesthetic throughout the session. This is when we acknowledge and implement the preferred style of the model, or in most cases, the mother. While encompassing effortless beauty, maternity photographer Luela Kaba praises the method of communication. We choose our models’ fabrics, backgrounds, and tones based on what they’ve expressed to us and what vibe we pick up.

luela photography maternity photoshoot phoenix arizona

Based on our analysis and rundown with our model, we then come to a conclusion about which types of fabrics we will use, what colors they will be. All of this and more begs us to ask the question “What do we want the audience to feel?”. Depending on the answer, we pick between flowy fabrics or still fabrics and covering fabrics or revealing fabrics. Once we’ve gotten there, next up is the color. What tone do we want to set. Are we looking for a dark and mysterious tone? Let’s put our model in dark eyeshadow, dark lipstick, and maroon flowy fabrics.  Looking for a light and airy tone? Let’s put our model in a natural look, paired with nude lipstick and white minimal fabrics. 

Why does it matter? Our clients satisfaction is very important to us. Covering maternity photoshoots, motherhood photoshoots, family photoshoots and boudoir photoshoots, it’s important to know the wants and needs of every client, and down to a personal level too. Book Luela Kaba for your next session, and let us get your custom fabrics, backgrounds, and tones.

What To Look For In Your Maternity Photographer

When it comes to choosing your maternity photographer, there are lots that a mother needs to take into consideration. It’s a mission to try and find the best photographer that can capture the beauty of a woman’s pregnancy in a way where they feel supported and sexy. While a maternity photoshoot is about pregnancy, what goes into it is way more than that. As a maternity photographer, it’s important to be able to create a welcoming environment where pregnancy coincides with confidence and sexiness. Combine these elements, and you’ve got yourself a glamorous photoshoot.

Luela Kaba and her creative team have a special outlook that makes for an open-minded experience when preparing for a maternity photoshoot. This makes for a clear communicative relationship between the client and the photographer, making sure we establish a solid relationship and can find the perfect vibe for a maternity photoshoot. 

With that being said, when looking for your maternity photographers, make sure it is someone you know you can trust. Ensure that you will be able to have open communication with your photographer so you can get the best results possible. The last thing any mother wants is to spend money on a photoshoot that you don’t like! Make sure you have a photographer that is clear with their rates, understands you, and can work with others. Luckily,  Luela Kaba does just that.

Prepping for a Maternity Shoot? Here’s How

By Blog

How to Prepare for a Maternity Shoot

As a maternity, motherhood, family, and boudoir photographer, it’s incredibly common that our clients feel the need to go overboard with preparation the day before. While there is some that you can do, there’s no reason for anyone to lose sleep over it! So, fear no more, the following words will teach you how to properly prepare for a maternity photoshoot.

luela photography maternity photoshoot phoenix arizona

For starters, it’s important that you are in the right state of mind. Don’t forget that this is a form of self-care and it is imperative that you realize that we are doing this for you! It’s alright to get cold feet, but I assure you that our team is welcoming and so excited to get glam with you! Play some music and get yourself in the mood, after all, this is a day meant for pampering. Once you’ve gotten yourself hyped up and ready to go, go ahead and get your nails done. Make sure any tiny imperfections that you’d want out of sight, are handled! This includes manicures, pedicures, and unwanted body hair. We want you feeling pristine!

Next up, pack your bags! Make sure you have anything and everything you might need, especially because these are long sessions, so you want to be set. Bring some comfy maternity clothes and make sure you’ve brought any vitamins, or medication you might need so there’s no personal stress. If you want, bring some personal support with you. If our team isn’t enough of a hype team, then you can bring your partner: a built-in DIY hype team. No matter what, don’t forget to remember your worth, and then add tax. 😉
