About Your Session

Following are some helpful tips to ensure you have a great experience with your photo shoot. If you have any questions beyond these, feel free to shoot me a message here!

How to prepare?

For most mamas, anywhere between 32-36 weeks is an ideal time to schedule your session!

• Do some searches on Pinterest for inspiration
• Send me photos via FB, Pinterest or text so that we can nail down your style and look
• Let me know what some of your favorite locations are
• Get plenty of rest the night before
• Try on your outfits to ensure they fit correctly

What to wear?

Wear what makes you feel beautfiul! But most of all, comfortable. When you feel beautiful and comfortable, your confidence will shine through!

• Solid colors and maxi dresses are universally flattering
• Choose fabrics and silhouettes that will show off the baby bump
• A thin belt just under the bust can give shape to looser dresses or shirts

“Say No” to the  following!

• Bright white doesn’t photograph well
• Shirts with logos or big pictures or prints
• Wild patterns distract from you
• Make sure outfits are free of wrinkles, stains, and rips/holes

What to bring?

• Your wonderful self!
• Extra hair supplies (just in case!)
• Water bottle
• Mirror for last minute glances/touchups
• Spouse and/or child if you would like them in the pictures

The little details!

• Make sure you have fresh/clean nails!
• It’d be best not to try any new hairstyles the day of your shoot. It’s suggested to give a new haircut at least a week before the photoshoot.
• Guys, make sure you’re shaved up, or bearded and ready to go!

Props to bring?

Let me know if there are any props that you would like to have in your photos!

I hope these tips have been helpful for you! If you haven’t already, reach out to schedule an appointment!
