WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT MATERNITY PHOTO SESSIONS

Congratulations on the fact that you are expecting a new baby! Maternity is a special experience in any woman’s life. Many women regret missing out on their maternity portraits and not having these beautiful images to remind them of the love they had for their babies before their birth. There are so many new things to decide on in preparation for your new little bundle. Why not have a professional photographer take pictures of you and/or your partner to capture this very special moment. We are here to pamper and assist you in creating a gorgeous variety of images from your pregnancy.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO TAKE YOUR MATERNITY PHOTOS?

Women often want to know when is the best time during pregnancy to have a professional photoshoot scheduled. This decision is obviously an individual choice, depending on your life circumstances, however, we find that during the end of your second trimester may be the most comfortable time. You will have a beautiful belly to show, while not feeling overly big yet. During this time, you will also have a good amount of energy to get dressed, move around the studio, and enjoy yourself. Keep in mind, that we are flexible and can take your maternity pictures during whatever time period works best for you.

THE STUDIO ATMOSPHERE DURING PREGNANCY PHOTO SESSION

We want to make sure you feel at ease during your maternity photo session. We like to keep backgrounds and lighting simple and beautiful to draw the attention and focus on you and your beautiful baby bump. We can take photos that are fun and playful or classic and sophisticated. We enjoy taking pictures of you by yourself or together with your partner. It is completely up to you. You tell us what you like, and we do the work to make it happen. Your comfort is what we feel is most important, so making all parties feel completely relaxed and at ease is our number one priority.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO MY PREGNANCY PHOTOSHOOT?

Bring clothing items that match the feeling you are going for. This can include flowy ethereal fabrics, your favorite dress, or a silky robe. There is no right or wrong choice when choosing the look you want to capture in your professional pregnancy photos. Choose outfits that make you feel as pretty, sexy, and confident as you are. Motherhood is the perfect time to capture your true beauty. We encourage you to also bring some light snacks and a water bottle. These will help to keep you hydrated and energized. If you have any special props from home that you would like to include, please feel free to bring those, as well.

Remember that this photoshoot is all about YOU and your growing family. What matters the most is that you have priceless photos to view for a lifetime with your loved ones. We are here to provide a memory you will treasure forever.
