Malaysia-based wedding photographer Ame of Ameirfikri captured this couple’s maternity session at their apartment in Kuala Lumpur. Their apartment was a bit small for a photo shoot, but Ame moved some furniture around to take advantage of the natural light and intimate space.

He also had to figure out how to get this shy couple to open up. “I lightened the mood by making light jokes and initiating small games between the session,” he explains. As a result, the soon-to-be parents felt comfortable enough to embrace and act more natural in front of the camera. Says Ame, “The small gesture of kissing and hugging shows the deep affection they have for each other.”
