The Maternity Experience
PREPPING FOR YOUR MATERNITY SESSION: Think about your style and the type of session you would like (urban, farm, city…etc.). Plan to bring at least two outfits… at least one of those being a top and pants so we can lift the shirt and see the belly. After all… the session is all about the bump! Form fitting clothing photographs very well… the tighter the better :). Also a flowing dress is nice when you are able tuck your hand around your belly and show the roundness. Many moms find it nice to get their hair and make up done before their shoot… a nice bit of pampering and it helps to feel your best. Be sure to paint your toes and trim your nails so they are looking nice. Unless you are going super funky (great for urban shoots) try to keep the polish neutral or just clear. Also try not to wear something tight around the belly on the way to the shoot…it is hard to remove those marks from the skin.
The best time to book your maternity session is between 32 and 36 weeks of pregnancy to ensure you are nice and round… but are still comfortable enough to move around.
