Wilmington, Illinois


Nestled in the picturesque town of Wilmington, IL, Proclamation Flower Farm offers an enchanting backdrop for maternity sessions. With its rolling fields of vibrant blooms, it provides the perfect setting for celebrating the beauty of motherhood. Recently, I had the privilege of capturing my sisters beautiful maternity session at this magical location, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it!


The Setting


Proclamation Flower Farm is a dream come true for photographers! Surrounded by lush fields of sunflowers, dahlias, and wildflowers, the farm is bathed in soft natural light, creating an atmosphere that highlights the natural glow of pregnancy.


The Session


The day of the session was perfect! Warm and sunny with a slight breeze. With the help of my professional opinion in outfits, Jessica gave me a few options to choose from. Naturally, I also recommend neutral colors so we decided on a cream dress that complemented the floral scenery beautifully. Nick joined in for several shots, creating a mix of solo and family portraits that perfectly captured their excitement for their newest addition :)


We started by taking a few photos near the farm’s entrance, where a stunning array of flowers framed the couple perfectly. From there, we wandered through the field and wildflower patches, stopping at some of the most eye-catching spots.


Capturing the Magic


What made this session truly special was the calming atmosphere of the farm. The tranquility of the flowers swaying in the breeze, the golden sunlight, and the genuine joy of these two created a relaxed environment, allowing for natural moments to shine through. The mom-to-be glowed with happiness, and their love was palpable in every shot.


As the sun began to set, we captured a few golden hour photos — those magical moments just before sunset when the light is soft and golden. The combination of the glowing light and the vibrant colors of the flowers made for some truly breathtaking images.
