Maternity photography FAQ'S
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY MATERNITY SESSION?
Most clients book their maternity photoshoot during their second or third trimester. Booking early assures availability as the calendar tends to fill very quickly. But if you are later on than that, please give us a call and we can check on availability!
At what point in pregnancy is it best to schedule my maternity session to take place?
We recommend you have your maternity photoshoot at around 30-36 weeks (7-8 months) pregnant. At that time the belly has a nice round shape, while 28 weeks and prior the bump will not be as visible.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
I want you to feel relaxed, beautiful, and excited about your photo session, I have several beautiful boutique gown that help you feel your best and let you express yourself. I really love to capture your gorgeous form so choosing outfits that accentuate your body is recommended. Solid colors work well and any color which helps you feel most like yourself is a good choice.
