A pregnancy session, while filled with emotion and discomfort is one of the most magical miracles a mother can ever experience. In such a short period of time this experience will be just a memory. Capturing your pregnancy is an amazing gift to leave the generation you are creating. I have been capturing pregnant moms for 6 years. Thank you for your consideration!

Pregnancy sessions are best when the belly is nice and round and while you are still feeling well. This can be anywhere from 30-36 weeks or 26-32 weeks if you are pregnant with multiples. I recommend before any photography session that you eat and drink plenty of fluids.

Hair and make up is recommended but not required. I do have some make up artists I can recommend.

Sessions can be held in the studio or on location. On location sessions take place 1 hour prior to sunset.

Partners and children are welcome.

What to wear and bring to your session.

  • Neutral strapless bra and seamless underwear

  • Black bra and panty set (for those black background belly shots)

  • White/ivory bra and panty set (for those white background belly shots)

  • Lingerie sets

  • Tube top or belly band

  • Long, flowy or form-fitting dress (e.g. tube dress or a summer maxi dress)

  • Button ups sweater or cardigans

  • Men’s button ups top (for significant other/husband)

  • Coordinating outfits (for significant other/husband and/or children)

I have maternity gowns and an assortment of wraps for the session. I do offer a few matching gowns for little girls as well.

If you plan on bring your own maternity dress or outfit I suggest something that is form fitting and shows the belly off well. During the session we will be showing off your connection to your baby.

Trust your photographer to direct you in posing so you can look your best. What makes maternity photos different from other portraits is that the images focus on you, your personality, feelings and the bond you have with your much-awaited baby. Many maternity poses such as hands on the belly and eyes looking down express emotions and connection to your belly. Other maternity poses empathize the beautiful curves of your body.
