Tips and Tricks for Great Maternity Portraits

• Schedule your session when you are in your seventh or eighth month of pregnancy

• Bring in your ultrasound. We can take a very special portrait of mama and baby

• Your maternity session could include the father and older children to reflect your beautiful growing family

• If you want to show your bare tummy, wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid elastic/clothing marks

• Put on lotion at least an hour before your session to avoid the shiny belly-look and staining your clothes

• Get a manicure or a light polish for a more finished look in a close up of your hands around your belly

• Remove tight-fitting clothing and accessories (watches and bracelets) at least two hours before your session

• You may want to include a few baby things like a cute pair of shoes or a cherished family heirloom in your portrait

Clothing Suggestions

• Solid colored shirts focus the attention on your tummy’s shape and expression

• Large patterns distract. Avoid big floral prints, swirls, plaids and stripes

• Form-fitting clothes with a little stretch will compliment your figure rather than loose clothing

• Long sleeves tend to be the most flattering, but sleeveless and spaghetti straps work

• Avoid t-shirt length sleeves

• If you want to show your bare belly, consider wearing a top and skirt or pants that won’t leave binding marks across your tummy

• Choose silk or cotton fabrics as they drape beautifully around a pregnant body

• Empire-waist blouses and dresses, button-up shirts, tank tops, long drawstring skirts and tie dresses can really enhance your blossoming shape

• Dark jeans and black tapering yoga pants make your legs look long and slim

• If your toes are exposed in a sandal-style, you might want to get a pedicure

• Accessories can enhance and personalize your style
