Lilliana, who is of Puerto Rican and Mexican descent, has a lot to celebrate, too! She is finally going to become a mom after struggling with infertility for six years. At one point, she thought that motherhood would not be in the cards for her, despite how much she wanted it. Now, her high fashion-inspired maternity photos will always be a beautiful reminder of this special time.
Lilliana is radiant.
Lilliana, who is expecting her little one quite soon, looks absolutely radiant in the photos that were taken for E! by photographer Joyce Park, who has worked with the likes of Cassie Ventura, Shay Mitchell, and Katharine McPhee, and specializes in elegant maternity shoots.
This means so much to Lilliana.
"I hope these photos give you a deeper look at the kind of woman and mother I hope to model for my child… someone bold, confident, unafraid and who stands proudly in every ounce of her individuality," she captioned a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot.
The photos are unconventional.
Lilliana's maternity photos are definitely unique, and some might even say risqué, and they are so gorgeous! "I would never have taken those pictures if I wasn't pregnant," she told E!. "It was the pregnancy that gave me the confidence to sit on that chair in a trench coat with nothing underneath and knee-high boots and be like, this is the body that is carrying a miracle and a blessing."
Her team for the shoot did an amazing job.
In addition to the talented photographer Joyce, Lilliana had an ace team on hand to get her glammed up for the photo shoot. It included hairstylist John Lunsford, makeup artist Keniar Daniel and stylist Robert Cardenaz.
She looks so confident!
Lilliana looks more confident than ever! "I want to remember how this baby made me feel and this baby has made me feel sexier, more confident and bolder than I think I've ever felt in my life," she told E!.
This look was so unexpected.
In one of the photos from the shoot, Lilliana is donning just underwear underneath a long fishnet gown and a black blazer. It's a totally unexpected look for a maternity photo shoot, and totally reveals what a style risk-taker she is.
She's so glamorous.
Lilliana looks absolutely ethereal in this photo, wearing a pleated sheer white frock. The styling for the shoot was ultra-glam and highlighted all of Lilliana's best features. Her legs look amazing!
And, even quite a bit sexy.
Who says a pregnant woman can't be sexy?! Lilliana's photos showcase just how sexy a pregnant woman can be when she is confident, happy, and proud. She is absolutely glowing in this sultry photo, and looks so fierce.
Lilliana shared more details on her Instagram story.
Being the gracious style maven that she is, Lilliana also shared shopping details for many of the looks she wore during the shoot on her Instagram story so other expectant mamas can get it on the high-fashion maternity style as well.
Her entire pregnancy has been stylish.
"I may be on maternity leave (as of today) but don’t expect the style to stop … we’re taking this to the finish line and welcoming Baby M into this world surrounded by clothes and shoes that make me feel bold and confident!" she wrote on Instagram.
Even her casual maternity looks are fire.
Lilliana recently made a style post about, get this … bike shorts! Of course the spandex short are trendy right now, and ideal while pregnant, but she managed to also make them look totally chic, by pairing them with a blazer.
Excuse us with the sequins!
Lilliana also recently swathed her growing baby bump in a mid-length, three-quarter sleeve, silver sequined gowned, and absolutely killed the look. We love that she doesn't try to hide or camouflage her belly.
Maternity jeans never looked so good.
OK, so technically these aren't maternity jeans. They're baggier regular jeans that happened to fit perfectly over Lilliana's belly and she totally upgraded them with the neon crop top, neutral blazer, and strappy heels.
This yellow dress is maternity style perfection.
There's a certain point in a pregnancy when a dress is just the only thing that's comfy, but Lilliana proves that it doesn't have to look frumpy in this yellow, button-up dress that hugs her belly just slightly.
But, at the end of the day...
What really matters are those special moments at home together, just enjoying every moment of her pregnancy. Lilliana works hard, so we're happy to see her take a moment to rest and relax with her husband.
