Maternity sessions are one of my favourite sessions to photograph, be it at one of our Perth beaches, fields, parks, I love it all. Maybe it has something to do with my little baby coming but I think it mostly has everything to do with your scrumptious baby bump and documenting those last few weeks, celebrating that you thrived (or for some of us- survived) through pregnancy LIKE A BOSS!
Ive said this before but ill say it again, having your photo taken can be nerve racking but so worth it to capture these moments, photographs bring back the most wonderful memories and feelings don’t they!
So- here’s some easy tips for making your photography session fun and easy!
1. Choose a location around perth that means something to you! If you hate the beach, please dont choose to have your photos there! Do you love to hike or picnic together? Lets go somewhere you enjoy and I guarantee your images will hold even more meaning!
2. Wear neutrals and if you choose to wear patterns make sure they dont clash. Neutrals are timeless and if we are talking practically, will match most homes once they’re on your walls.
3. Get the bump out! Yep thats right, please im begging you, get out that beautiful bump of yours. These photos only take about 10 minutes at the end of the photography session but its so worth it! And dont worry I can bring an oversized shirt or gown to hide all the bits we all have but like to hide (goodbye cellulite) but show all the bits we love-like that scrumptious bump of yours!
4. Relax! Have fun! Sounds easy right? Sometimes its not so easy but just try to be present, enjoy the hour you have together documenting you surviving pregnancy like a boss and little Bub who is almost here.
I cant wait to photograph you and your bump!!
