What to wear for a maternity photoshoot

Pregnancy is one of those occasions that needs to be celebrated because in reality it’s such a short period of time in our lives and such an incredible transformation happens. Whether this is your first child or your tenth you need to celebrate the incredible strength, resilience and superhuman powers you have for bringing new life into the world.

One of the biggest questions I get though is “what do I wear?“ -don’t worry I’ve got you covered!

A bodysuit

A simple black bodysuit will emphasise and show off your bump but keep you covered. There are bodysuits to compliment everybody and bring the right amount of va va voom depending on the look you want. You can get bodysuits with sleeves, sequins, no sleeve, deep v necks, high polo, lace, thong styles, full brief styles…

Fitted dress

A fitted dress brings elegance and style. It gives a very luxurious feel to an image. This can be something you already own (it doesn’t matter if zips don’t do up at the back, we can still work with it as long as it fits around the front) or something you might want to purchase.

Black underwear

This is a very simple look but it looks amazing. And of course most of us already have suitable underwear at home.

Fabric

The reality is you don’t really need to bring any clothes if nothing works, covering yourself with fabric might just be the look you’re after instead! Fabric can look so beautiful and sophisticated on a maternity photoshoot.

Jeans and a bra

This look is much more casual but still very eye catching and glam. And no doubt you have jeans at home! It doesn’t matter if you can’t do the buttons up, that just makes the belly pop even more and accentuate your beautiful bump.

Of course you also have access to my in studio wardrobe where we can pick and choose outfits that might compliment you and keep to the style you’re looking for. It’s time to have fun and capture stunning maternity portraits for you to treasure.
