Ethan Herrold - Photographer

About Ethan

Hello! I’m Ethan Herrold, a maternity photographer based in Colorado and the heart behind Colorado Maternity Photography. My passion lies in creating a safe, celebratory space for women to feel deeply seen during one of the most transformative times in life—pregnancy. With a background rooted in both technical photography and emotional storytelling, I specialize in capturing timeless, magazine-worthy portraits that highlight your unique strength, softness, and beauty. I believe maternity photography should feel empowering, not performative—where every woman is honored just as she is. My approach is warm, grounded, and intuitive. I guide you with care and encouragement, helping you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera, whether we’re working in studio or surrounded by Colorado’s wild landscapes. Outside of photography, I’m fueled by my love for the outdoors, meaningful connection, and a good cortado. I’m here to celebrate your journey and help you preserve this fleeting chapter with imagery that reflects your truth and radiance.

I had such a great experience working with Ethan of Colorado Maternity Photography. He was incredibly communicative and professional from start to finish. I felt so comfortable during the shoot—he gave clear, easy-to-follow direction and made the whole process feel natural and relaxed. The turnaround time was also super quick, and the final images are absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend working with him if you want your pregnancy captured with care and intention!

Frequently asked questions

When is the Best Time to Take Maternity Photos?

The perfect time for maternity photos is between 28 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. During this stage, your baby bump is beautifully prominent, and you’ll still feel comfortable and confident. If you're in Colorado or Denver, scheduling early ensures availability with sought-after maternity photographers.

Where Can You Shoot Maternity Photos?

Maternity photos can be taken in a professional studio, outdoors in stunning Colorado landscapes, or even at home for a more personal touch. As a leading maternity photographer in Denver, I can help you decide between breathtaking mountain backdrops, elegant studio settings, or your favorite cozy spot for pregnancy pictures.

What Should I Wear for My Maternity Photoshoot?

Choosing the right outfit is key to feeling confident. Flowing maternity gowns, fitted dresses that accentuate your bump, or elegant wraps are all great options. We offer a curated collection of maternity photoshoot gowns in timeless styles, perfect for your session. I’ll also guide you on color palettes that complement Denver’s natural light and studio settings.
