Are you trying to find the perfect time for maternity photos? As a Houston and The Woodlands family photographer, I am lucky enough to get to document so many incredible women throughout their motherhood journey. While I fully believe that the best time to take photos is any time, I have a few tips to share when it comes to finding the perfect time for maternity photos.
So when is the perfect time for maternity photos?! As always, this can be so different for every single person. Every pregnancy and motherhood journey looks different! What may be the perfect time for you, might not necessarily be the perfect time for someone else. But, in general, the perfect time for maternity photos is towards the last few weeks of your pregnancy. You’ll want to show off your bump, so you want it to be a little bigger. But, you should still be comfortable enough to move around with.
Along with trying to find the perfect time, you have to find the perfect outfit and location, right?! Pick a location based on weather, time of the year, and whether you can move around easily! If you are up for an adventure, a creekside maternity session might work for you! But if you want to keep it on the lighter side, a park might be a great option!
When it comes to picking your outfit, find something you feel confident in! I have a client closet filled with GORGEOUS gowns for you to choose from! The gowns are made to fit and complement your growing, beautiful, body. I want you to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself! So, when it comes to planning your maternity photos, remember that your comfort is what matters most! You want to be far enough along that your gorgeous baby bump can be shown off, but not far enough that you are uncomfortable moving around.
