Maternity Photography Questions Answered!

Here are my Top 3 Maternity Photography Questions as an Ottawa Family Photographer based in Carleton Place!

1. When should I book my Maternity Photography Session?

There is no right or wrong time. BUT I suggest to book your session when you're about 28 to 34 weeks along. You’ll want to wait until the bump is more visible but I don’t suggest waiting too close to your due date to book your session especially if you’re due in the summer.

2. What should I wear to my Maternity Photoshoot?

Something you feel comfortable in! You won't want to be wearing something you're constantly feeling like you need to re-adjust. A dress is often a great choice, for whichever season! If it’s cold out wear leggings under a long sweater or put a nice jacket you can leave open with a dress under.

3. Where should I do my Maternity Photography Session?

Pick somewhere you want! If you want it outdoors, let's find the perfect location! If you'd rather do a home session in your newly finished nursery, awesome! I also have a mobile white or black background I can bring to you if you'd like to have it indoors during the colder winter months!
