Maternity Session FAQs
When is the best time to schedule a maternity photoshoot?
The ideal time for maternity photos is typically between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. During this window, your baby bump is beautifully defined, and you're usually still feeling relatively comfortable.
What should I wear for my maternity session?
We recommend outfits that comfortably accentuate your baby bump. Solid colors often photograph beautifully; flowing fabrics can add elegance. You're welcome to bring several options!
Where do maternity sessions take place?
Sessions can take place in our comfortable studio in Suffolk, VA, at your home, or on‑location anywhere in Hampton Roads—from Virginia Beach’s shores to Norfolk’s scenic parks.
