How Maternity Photoshoots Work
Here’s what you can expect from your maternity photoshoot:
Booking: You can book your maternity session after your second scan. The best time to take maternity photos is between 28-32 weeks of pregnancy. During this period, your baby bump is beautifully pronounced, and you’re still comfortable for posing.
Consultation: After booking, you’ll receive a guide to help you prepare for the session and a catalogue of backdrops and dresses from which to select your favourites. Once you've made your selections, we’ll discuss styling and setups for your session.
​
Session: Your maternity photoshoot will take place in my cosy home studio in Hemel Hempstead. The room will be warm.
​
Duration: The maternity sessions typically last up to 2 hours. We’ll take our time to ensure you are relaxed and comfortable.
​
Viewing & Ordering: Around one week after your session, you'll return for your viewing and ordering appointment. This is when you'll see your final gallery and choose your favourite images and products.
You’ll receive your chosen images via E-mail.
​
Please note: Full payment is required at the end of this appointment.
