What should I wear for a maternity session?

Updated: Oct 20, 2023

Choosing what to wear for a maternity session can be both exciting and overwhelming. The goal is to feel comfortable, confident, and showcase your beautiful pregnant belly. Here are a few tips to help you decide on the perfect outfit:



1. Embrace Fitted and Flowing Styles: Opt for outfits that accentuate your baby bump. Fitted dresses or tops are great for showcasing your curves and emphasizing the beauty of your changing body. Flowing fabrics can add a touch of elegance and create a gentle, ethereal look.


2. Choose Soft, Neutral Colors: Soft and neutral colors, such as pastels, creams, greys, or earth tones, can create a timeless and elegant feel. They also complement a variety of backgrounds and environments, allowing the focus to remain on you and your growing belly.




3. Consider Textures and Patterns: Incorporating textures and subtle patterns can add visual interest to your outfit. Lace, knits, or subtle floral prints can add depth and dimension to the photographs. Just make sure the patterns are not too busy or overwhelming.



4. Show Some Skin: If you're comfortable with it, consider outfits that showcase your bare belly. A form-fitting top or a draped fabric gently revealing your belly can be a beautiful and intimate way to capture the connection between you and your baby.




5. Accessorize Wisely: Simple accessories can add a personal touch to your maternity session. Delicate jewelry, like a necklace or bracelet, can enhance the overall look without overpowering it. Avoid bulky or distracting accessories that could take away from the focus on your belly.




6. Consider Multiple Outfits: If you'd like to have different looks during your session, consider bringing along multiple outfits. This allows for variety in the photographs and can showcase different aspects of your personality or preferred styles.





Remember that the most important thing is to wear something that makes you feel comfortable and confident.
