WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR LUXURY MATERNITY PHOTO EXPERIENCE
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, and a maternity photoshoot is the perfect way to celebrate this incredible chapter in your life.
My goal as a Metro Detroit maternity photographer is to provide you with a luxury experience that leaves you feeling confident, radiant, and empowered. Here’s what you can expect when booking a maternity photoshoot with me.
- A PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE
Every maternity session is tailored to highlight your unique beauty and style. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your vision, wardrobe preferences, and location options to create a session that reflects your personality. Whether you prefer a studio setting in my Troy, Michigan studio for a polished look or an outdoor location in Metro Detroit, for a natural vibe, I’ll guide you through the process to ensure we capture your dream photos.
- GLAMOUROUS WARDROBE OPTIONS
I offer a curated selection of stunning maternity gowns that are designed to fit and flatter your pregnancy glow. From flowing fabrics to form-fitting silhouettes these gowns create a luxurious and elegant look. You’re also welcome to incorporate your own outfits or sentimental pieces for a personal touch. Based on your vision and location you chose, we can use body suits, implied nude, extravagant gowns, simple draping fabrics, or you can wear jeans, and white dress shirt for a casual style.
Pro tip: Soft, neutral tones, rich jewel colors, or dramatic blacks and reds photograph beautifully and add to the glamorous feel or your session.
- PROFESSIONAL POSING GUIDANCE
Many expectant mothers worry about how to pose, but that’s where I come in! With over 13 years of experience, I will guide you through poses that accentuate your best features while capturing the beauty of your bump. I focus on creating flattering angles and using light to highlight your natural glow.
- RELAXATION AND COMFORT
Your comfort is my top priority. During the session, I will ensure you feel at ease, whether we are in the studio or on location. I will provide breaks as needed and make adjustments to ensure every moment is enjoyable. This is your time to relax and celebrate-you deserve it! I will fluff your hair, adjust your wardrobe, adjust pose to flatter your best features, make your partner smile, quickly while you think about your new bundle.
- A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE
A maternity photoshoot isn’t just about the final images-it’s about creating a memorable experience you’ll cherish forever. Many mothers tell me they feel more confident, beautiful and empowered after their session, and I’m committed to making you feel the same. I take my time in making sure all the little things are perfect so you don’t have to!
- STUNNING RESULTS
After your session, I will carefully retouch your photos to enhance their beauty while maintaining a natural look. The result? Timeless, glamorous portraits that you and your family will treasure for generations.
FAQS
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY SESSION?
The ideal time for maternity photo experience is between 28-35 weeks of pregnancy. At this stage your bump is beautifully round, and you’re likely still comfortable enough to enjoy the session. Booking around 20 weeks is ideal to ensure availability.
SHOULD I GET HAIR AND MAKEUP DONE?
I do recommend having your hair and makeup done professionally for a more polished final image, but it is not necessary. I have several salons that I can recommend to you if you need help! I also find that my clients say they are happy that they didn’t have to worry about it and they seem more relaxed. Bringing a comb/brush, hairspray, lipstick/gloss is also great for quick touchups if needed.
CAN MY PARTNER OR CHILDREN COME?
YES! If you want them to be a part of the session, then I recommend it. Some clients just want to have the experience solo and some want their family with them. Either way, we will plan their outfits as well to coordinate with you. I will add them into every wardrobe change, but I also do solo shoots of you. I feel that your baby may want just a photo of their Mom pregnant with them too!
