When to book...


If you're expecting, Firstly-Congratulations!

Pregnancy is such a beautiful, transformative journey and capturing it through a maternity photo session is one of the best ways to celebrate this special time.

One of the most common questions I get asked is: "When should I book my maternity session?"

Here's everything you need to know.

The sweet spot: 28-34 weeks


The ideal time to photograph your baby bump is usually between 28 and 34 weeks. Why this window?

  • Your bump is beautifully round and pronounced
  • You're likely still feeling relatively comfortable
  • Swelling is minimal and you can move with ease
  • Its early enough to reschedule if needed due to weather or health

Every pregnancy is different, but this timeframe strikes the perfect balance between a visual bump and comfort.

Running behind? don't worry.


If you're later in your pregnancy and just decided to book- don't stress! I've photographed stunning sessions at 36-38 weeks. Just keep in mind your energy and comfort levels.
