HOW MANY WEEKS PREGNANT DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR A MATERNITY PHOTO SHOOT?It’s never too early to schedule your photoshoot. I suggest planning your maternity photo shoot between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. This timing allows you to showcase a beautiful round belly while still feeling relatively comfortable.
-
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK MY PHOTOSHOOT?As my calendar fills up quickly I advise contacting me as soon as you have completed your first trimester. I’m typically booking up 2 to 3 months in advance, so the sooner you contact me the better availability I may have. I do have last minute availability too due to rescheduling sometimes my newborn sessions.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR MY SESSION?Once you schedule your portrait session, I will provide you with helpful tips on what to bring and how to get ready. As a full-service studio, there’s no need to stress about bringing a lot of clothing options. If most of the images you envision are artistic nudes, we suggest bringing fewer garments. I recommend including: - A nude (skin-toned) strapless bra - Nude thong underwear
