How Can You Plan Your Maternity Photoshoot?

A pregnancy photo is magical, moving, beautiful, it must perfectly convey the love and tenderness you already feel for this future baby! Are you pregnant and dreaming of documenting your beautiful belly?

Many of us want to keep sweet memories of this beautiful time on glossy paper.

However, taking pregnancy photos at home is not always the best thing to do...
That's why it's best to use a professional photographer specialised in maternity and pregnancy photos.
He or she will be able to put you at ease in front of the camera. 
He or she will be able to advise you on what postures to use and what clothes to wear.

Make sure to bring several outfits and accessories.
Also, underwear that you feel comfortable in and that makes you feel beautiful!

As for the style of the photos, you can look for inspiration on the web and on Pinterest, where you will find a multitude of maternity photos, each as beautiful as the next, sometimes even funny.

Colour or black and white photos?
Dressed or undressed photos?
Photos alone or with someone else?
With the father-to-be? The mother-to-be? With your children?

These are all questions that you are probably asking yourself, which is why it is always a good idea to look at what is already being done and to choose the images and the style that best suit you, so that you are completely satisfied with your session and the result.

You can choose to do this photoshoot indoors or outdoors, or both ;-)
Choose a place you like, whether it's by the sea, the forest, a lake or a river.
A place that symbolises your love for your partner, a place that is yours!

A maternity photoshoot is best done from the 7th month onwards, in order to have a nice round and bouncy belly ;-)
