Waiting for baby John Emmanuel | Disney boardwalk pregnancy photos

There’s nothing quite like the magic of maternity photography at Disney’s Boardwalk—especially when capturing the excitement of expecting parents as they prepare to welcome their little one. This beautiful maternity session for Baby John Emmanuel was filled with love, joy, and, of course, a touch of Disney charm!

At Bia Schaefer Photography, I love creating timeless and heartfelt maternity portraits, and Disney’s Boardwalk provided the perfect backdrop for this dreamy session. With its vintage seaside charm, pastel-colored buildings, and sparkling waterfront views, this location felt like a fairy tale setting for celebrating new life.

A Magical Maternity Session at Disney’s Boardwalk

For this special session, we arrived at Disney’s Boardwalk in Orlando, FL, just before sunset to capture that perfect golden hour glow. The mom-to-be looked radiant in a flowing, elegant dress that moved beautifully with the gentle breeze off the water. Every image reflected the deep love and excitement that she and her partner share for their soon-to-arrive baby boy, John Emmanuel.

We explored some of the most iconic Disney Boardwalk photography spots, including:

The charming pastel-colored buildings – These soft, dreamy tones made for a perfect, whimsical backdrop.
The wooden boardwalk by the water – The serene reflections and gentle waves added a romantic, peaceful vibe.
The vintage-style street lamps and bridges – These touches created a classic, timeless feel in the images.

One of my favorite moments from the session was capturing the couple embracing in front of the shimmering water as the sun dipped below the horizon—a picture-perfect symbol of the beautiful journey ahead.
