What’s Your Maternity Session Style?

Pregnancy is a wonderful and beautiful time in your life, (even if it doesn’t always feel that way) and capturing the spirit of this milestone can be absolutely magical. There are so many great options for a fun and unique maternity session in any season. The hardest part is often narrowing down your style and a location, so we’ve created a fun guide to help you get started based on what you want to wear!

Flowy gown

If you want to wear a gorgeous and flattering, flowy gown for your maternity shoot, the best location might be a field, a park, or a scenic overlook. Whether it’s springtime with flowers blooming, autumn with the changing leaves or winter with a light dusting of twinkling snow, a nature scene is perfect for this style and will result in fun and beautiful maternity pictures to share with your loved ones and your children as they grow-up.   

Fitted dress

If you want to show off your pregnancy body, throw on a dramatic dress and head to the nearest scenic overlook. There are tons of areas that are just a quick walk or short hike away from public view, and your silhouette in your dramatic and form-fitting dress will look absolutely stunning against a scenic backdrop.

Casual clothes

This option is for those who are looking for a maternity shoot that’s a bit more casual. You can throw on a sundress, sneakers, and a cute denim jacket and head downtown to get maternity photos that are fun and natural, if that’s your style. Consider using your favorite downtown spot or the scenic riverfront as the backdrop.

Pajamas

Last but not least is the option for soon-to-be mommas who just want to stay cozy today instead. Give your family members and friends a glimpse into your fun and love-filled home without having to get dressed up, with a in-home lifestyle maternity session. You could even milk a luxury milk bath with this one, for the best of both worlds! This option can be particularly fun in the winter because you can throw on some snowflake or holiday pajamas or cozy up in front of the tree.
