Underwater Maternity Photoshoot with Plus-Size Model Tabria Majors
I am excited to share these beautiful portraits of Tabria’s underwater maternity photoshoot that I had the honor to capture in my favorite cenote. Some photoshoots are just too good to limit to posting just a couple of images on social media, and this is one of them!
The way the natural light danced through the cenote waters, illuminating Tabria in the most magical manner, was truly captivating.

A Celebration of Motherhood: Tabria Majors’ Underwater Session
I had the incredible opportunity to capture the beauty and grace of motherhood beneath the pristine waters of the cenotes in Riviera Maya, Mexico, with none other than the stunning plus-size model, Tabria Majors. This cenote pregnancy photoshoot not only celebrates the miracle of life but also embraces the empowering essence of body positivity.

Why Cenotes Are Magical for Maternity Photoshoots
As an underwater photographer, I'm constantly seeking out hidden gems that offer a magical touch to my work. The cenotes of the Riviera Maya have a mystique unlike any other, with their turquoise waters and breathtaking formations. I especially like one specific cenote between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. I knew right away that this cenote would provide an enchanting backdrop for Tabria's maternity photoshoot, adding an element of ethereal beauty to the images.

Embracing Body Positivity: Plus-Size Maternity in Water
Underwater maternity photography is not just about aesthetics—it's about empowerment. For plus-size mothers-to-be, the water becomes a space of liberation and comfort, where movement feels fluid and weightless.
The water offered a natural support system, allowing Tabria to pose with ease and grace. Free from gravity and pressure, her body moved freely, creating shapes and lines that celebrated strength and softness all at once. As a photographer, I intentionally create a space where every woman—regardless of size or swim ability—feels safe, seen, and celebrated.
Inclusive underwater maternity photography allows us to tell powerful, intimate stories. It's not about fitting into a mold—it's about creating art that honors your journey exactly as you are.
