Maternity Session Information & Tips

Pregnancy is an exciting time with lots of changes! Maternity portraits are a fabulous way to capture your changing body as you await the arrival of the new addition to your family. It can also be a time of uncertainty. Even if you aren’t overjoyed with the changes in your body right now, these photos will become a treasured part of this very special time in your life in years to come.

My sessions are fun and relaxed. I will do my very best to choose poses and lighting that are flattering to your changing body. All my images are edited to enhance your natural beauty. My goal is to make you feel and look as radiant and beautiful as possible!

The ideal time for a maternity session is between 32-36 weeks. You want to be pregnant enough that your belly is prominent but not so pregnant that you’re swollen and uncomfortable.

I highly recommend shooting maternity sessions outside. Outdoor sessions should take place early in the day or late afternoon/evening for best lighting. Ohio weather does not always permit an outdoor session so I do have a home studio with many large solid backdrops for beautiful maternity images with a classy and timeless feel. We can also do a maternity session in your home for a more comfortable, personal feel. I will travel up to 25 miles from my home for on-location shoots. A travel expense will be added for locations over 25 miles.
