When to Book Your Maternity Photos
The Best Time to Schedule Your Maternity Photos
One of the best times to book your maternity photo session is between 30 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. During this stage, your baby bump is round, and you’re still comfortable enough to move and pose naturally. Waiting too late into pregnancy may bring added discomfort, making the experience less enjoyable. As a Orange County maternity photographer I find after 35 weeks most people start to feel a bit more uncomfortable, and moving around isn’t quite as fun.
By booking your session early, you’ll secure your spot on my calendar and have plenty of time to plan outfits, location, and overall vision for your shoot. Whether you love the idea of a beach session, a golden grassy field, or even a cozy studio shoot, the third trimester is the perfect time to capture this unforgettable milestone.
What if I’m expecting multiples?
I know how plans can shift unexpectedly. If you’re high risk or expecting twins (or more!), I recommend booking your maternity session around 28 to 30 weeks. It’s best to schedule sooner rather than later. A smaller bump is absolutely worth documenting—it’s far better than missing the chance altogether.
