WHAT TO WEAR
Don't stress! The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and confident. We recommend choosing clothes and accessories that show off your beautiful bump; think stretchy fabrics that cling to your belly, dresses belted beneath the bust, maxi dresses, etc. Flowy fabrics (longer dresses, kimonos, capes, or scarves) help add gorgeous movement to outdoor photos. 

Neutral colors always look great and allow YOU to shine. We do recommend avoiding bold patterns, logos, or clothing that is too loose. 

If you will be including your partner and/or family members in your session, a good rule of thumb is to coordinate without being too matchy. Choose mom’s outfit first and then style everyone around that outfit. Pick a 2-3 color palette with neutrals that flow throughout the outfits and try mixing patterns, textures and fabrics

Other tips:

• Dress for the weather

• Accessorize! Fun hats, textures, and thoughtful jewelry look great in photos

• Avoid neon colors that may leave a color cast on faces and skin

• Shoes! Make sure they are comfortable. During our session we may be doing some brief walking on grass, gravel, sand and/or well-formed dirt paths.

COME PREPARED
Feel free to browse our galleries or Pinterest boards for inspiration ahead of time. This can help you feel better prepared for your shoot. If you have any specific ideas for settings, outfits, or photography styles you'd like to try out, do let us know in advance.

If you already have some cute baby items such as shoes, toys, blankets, family heirlooms or ultrasound photos, you're welcome to bring them along to incorporate into your session. 

DON’T STRESS AND HAVE FUN!
Don’t think of it as a photoshoot. Think of it as a few minutes of uninterrupted time with you + your sweet babe.
