How to Get the Best Maternity Portraits

1. Pregnancy Portraits should be taken around the 6th or 7th month. The belly is the optimum size during the 6th or 7th month for portrait purposes. Earlier than that the belly may be too small.

2. Several hours before your pregnancy / maternity photo shoot, you'll want to take off anything that has tight elastic like slacks with tight waistbands and undergarments or bras in order to make sure you don't have elastic or strap marks on your skin. Don't use lotion on your belly, especially the kind to help reduce stretch marks on the day of your session. If you do, you're belly will be really shiney, and thats not a good thing.

3. Tops should be very form fitting.....at least around the bustline. Big shirts won't show your form...and showing your form is the whole point. You'll want something to cover the breasts, and yet expose the belly. Bringing a robe is a good idea to throw on in the studio in between poses.

4. Your hands are most likely going to show......so don't forget to have a manicure and a pedicure too. Moisturize elbows and knees.

5. Eat a light snack before the shoot.

6. Limit jewelry to essential pieces. While it's nice to include special or important jewelry in your portraits, too much jewelry will be distracting.

7. Be on time for your appointment and don't schedule any appointments or activities directly after your photo shoot. Quality portraiture requires a good amount of time, you won't want to rush your session and possibly have subpar results.

8. If you're planning on including your husband in your images, make sure you discuss it with your photographer so they can give you clothing guidelines such as, you'll probably want to bring black slacks and he won't want to forget to either remove his belt, or bring one without a shiney belt buckle as the buckle can be a big distraction in the photo when it catches the light.
