As a mother of two, I know how many emotions are constantly going through your mind in the months before a new addition arrives. Anticipation, excitement, and fear are all just a normal part of the rollercoast. However, one thing you don't need to worry about is your maternity photos! I've put together this guide to help expecting mamas feels ready and prepared to get in front of my lens.

I recommend scheduling your maternity session for between 7 and 8 months. At this time your belly will be nice and round, but you won't feel too over-exhausted to move around.

Please feel free to include other family members! A maternity shoot doesn't have to be only Mom (but it certainly can be). If you would like other family members or loved ones to join, please just let me know ahead of time. I only allow up to 4 additional people at my normal maternity session cost, if you would like to include more people please inquire for special pricing.

For maternity portraits, we really want to show off that gorgeous belly. There are plenty of ways to showcase your beautiful body, you just need to find something that fits your style. Dresses can be nice, as can a more casual look with pants and a shirt. It's all about you feeling confident! As far as colors, please refer to the "what to wear" guide.

If you would like to include some props in your session; baby shoes, onesies, stuffed toys, and ultrasound photos are all good options. Don't feel like you need to bring anything though!
