When Should You Schedule Maternity Portraits?
We recommend reserving your maternity portrait session during pregnancy rather than waiting until the final weeks.
Most maternity sessions are photographed when the pregnancy is clearly visible while the mother is still comfortable enough to move, pose and enjoy the experience.
Your ideal timing may vary depending on whether this is your first pregnancy, whether you are expecting multiples and how you are feeling physically.
During your consultation, we will help you select a session date that works best for you.
For most clients, we recommend scheduling maternity portraits between approximately 28 and 34 weeks.
Many families choose to continue their portrait journey with a newborn photography session after their baby arrives.
Capture the beauty of motherhood
Pregnancy is one of the most powerful and beautiful chapters in your story, and maternity portraits allow you to remember this moment forever.
What to Wear for Maternity Photos
Wardrobe is an important part of maternity portrait planning, but you do not need to figure it out on your own.
Before your session, we will discuss clothing, color, fit and the overall style of portraits you want to create.
Depending on the look of your session, wardrobe may include a fitted dress, flowing maternity gown, simple fabric draping or clothing you already own.
The goal is to select pieces that photograph beautifully while keeping the attention on you and your pregnancy.

Maternity Gowns and Styling
Belly to Baby Studios offers guidance on maternity gowns and styling so your portraits feel intentional rather than improvised.
We will help determine which silhouettes, colors and textures work best for your body, the background and the overall look you prefer.
Some clients choose dramatic studio portraits while others prefer a softer and more understated style.
Your session can be tailored to the way you want to be photographed.
Include Your Partner and Children
Maternity photography does not have to focus only on the expecting mother.
Partners and children may be included so the session also documents your family before the new baby arrives.
We will help coordinate clothing and posing so the family portraits feel connected to the maternity images without becoming overly matched.
These portraits often become especially meaningful after the baby is born.
