Maternity Sessions

Congratulations all you beautiful Momma's! I know you have a lot that you still need to prepare! With planning your maternity Session I would love to ease any and all stress that I can!


In this blog I am hoping to go from start to finish! hopefully this can help you as you start planning your Maternity session with the Photographer of your Choosing!

Scheduling Maternity Session


Let's Talk About when to schedule your session!

The Earlier you can book your session the Better! After 20 weeks is when you should be Scheduling that session! 28-32 Weeks is when your belly is showing and will look great in photos!


Any later then 32 Weeks could be very difficult, Standing, moving could be very hard on your body! It is Possible so if that is the case I try and plan shoots for a at home session or a studio session!


Photo Style

What I mean by this is the style/outfit you are choosing! For all mommas who are wanting modest photos communicate with your photographer!


I like to plan outfits with Locations! So feel free to communicate with me as we pick locations!


How every you feel comfortable with photo's let your photographer know what makes you comfortable and what makes you uncomfortable!

Pamper Yourself!

Your hands will be in all of your photo's


Get Your hair done professionally! Make up done professionally! I will leave a list below For Local Hair Artists in and around Wichita!


The Day of Your session

The moment you wake up Drink Water! Eat a breakfast that if you still have morning sickness that you can keep down. Eat until you feel full! Bring Snacks and Water to your session! A toothbrush and Toothpaste as well!


Take the morning to prepare your body! If you are getting stressed or nervous always bring people that you feel comfortable at your session! First time is always nerve wrecking!

Bring Family and Sentimental Things


Family is always welcome! Any and all things that are special and sentimental to you and your baby!

That can be a family heirloom, ultrasound photo, a special baby blanket, toy, shoes. Whatever is meaningful!


Clothing!


Now For my personal Closet I am hoping to build my client closet!


Keep outfits very Neutral, a solid color! Especially when coordinating with family!


Get as comfortable as you feel! Get creative!
