Preparing for your maternity shoot

There is really nothing more incredible that your body growing a new life, and maternity shoots are such a beautiful way to commemorate this special time of your lives.

​

Heres some tips on preparing for your maternity shoot:

​

• Maternity shoots are all about mum, they are designed to celebrate the female body and the focus will be on mum and bump. Partners and other children are of course welcome to attend the session and be a part of shoot, however photos of them with mum will be limited. If you would like a session full of images of your family and bump, please book in for a family shoot.

• I would encourage you to bring multiple outfits to your session, as little or as many as you'd like, and we can decide together on the day what will look best and which outfits will show off your glorious bump. Firm favourites are open jeans with white undone shirts, tight fitting dresses, jeans and bras, or lingerie. 

•  I find that neutral colours work best for outfits, (whites, creams, beiges, greys or blacks), I would avoid anything too brightly coloured or patterned, anything that will distract from the main focus, you!

• It is totally natural to feel slightly nervous or apprehensive about having your photo taken on your own, however I will guide you throughout the shoot, directing with poses, and hopefully putting you at ease.

• Maternity shoots take around 1 hour.
