Celebrating your pregnancy journey with a maternity photoshoot is a beautiful way to
capture the transformation, strength, and love of entering motherhood. It honors the incredible changes a woman’s body undergoes as she nurtures new life. From choosing the right photographer to selecting the right outfits, here’s everything you need to know to
prepare for your maternity photoshoot—whether you're going solo or planning a couples maternity photoshoot.
Pro Tip: Book your session between 28–34 weeks. At this stage, your belly is beautifully round, but you’ll still feel comfortable enough to pose your maternity photoshoot.
Choosing the right Maternity wardrobe sets the tone, style and emotional feel of the entire
photoshoot. Your outfit is a chance to express who you are — whether you prefer something
classic and neutral, colorful and fun, or glamorous and dramatic, it helps tell your unique story.
The right outfit will also boost your confidence embracing your new body feeling beautiful,
empowered, and connected to the moment. At our studio, we offer couture Maternity
wardrobes and collections of jewelry to complete your personal look.
Here’s what to keep in mind:
Wear a strapless bra and nude undergarments for underneath the gown
Creating a mood board with inspiration images helps your photographer understand your style and vision.
For couples maternity photoshoots, coordinate (don’t match) with your partner.
Pamper Yourself Before the Shoot
Make sure to get a mani and pedi before your Maternity session so everything comes out
clean in your photos. Every detail counts! Consider scheduling hair and makeup on the day of
your shoot. At our studio, we have a makeup artist on site who will take care of your beauty
needs and have you looking naturally beautiful. All of your important features will stand out.
Also stay hydrated, drink lots of water, get a good night’s rest, and don’t skip a light
meal—this is your day to shine. It’s good to bring a couple snacks to munch on. We provide
light snacks and refreshments too if our client needs a break from standing and posing.
Bring Props or Personal Touches
If you want to personalize your photos, bring personal props: baby shoes, ultrasound images, or items from your wedding. They can add emotion and narrative to your shoot, and your photographer will know how to incorporate them tastefully.
Final Thoughts
Preparing for a maternity photoshoot is all about celebrating this special fleeting moment of entering motherhood. From choosing the right maternity photography studio to planning your look and vibe, each detail should reflect your personality and journey to motherhood.
Whether you're going for dreamy and soft, bold and editorial, or sweet and romantic with your partner, your maternity session is a powerful way to preserve these fleeting moments. When choosing our studio, you will create timeless memories you'll treasure for years to come.
