What Should Your Family Wear for Your Maternity Photos

 

Your Niagara maternity photos should be an experience that you look forward to and not one that creates a million things to do.

 I hear from many mamas who are stressed over finding what to wear for their portrait session. Not only do they need to find something they can wear, they need to find outfits for their entire family. I’d love to share how I handle this daunting task for you and some of my top tips on what your family should wear for your maternity photos.

Full-Service Maternity Photos 

I’m going to share a few basic tips with you below. But first, I’d love to share how my full-service maternity photography completely eliminates this to-do item for you. Once my maternity clients are booked with me, they get to stop by the studio and select their family’s outfits from my client closet. I have complete outfits for moms, dad, and their children. 

Instead of spending hours choosing outfits, buying or finding them, and getting them ready, I handle all this for you. On the day of the session, you don’t have to worry about ensuring everyone’s outfits are clean. You can walk into the studio to your entire family’s outfits clean, steamed, and waiting for you to put on.

What Should Your Family Wear for  Maternity Photos 

As promised, here are a few tips on what your family should wear for maternity photos. 

Coordinate, Don’t Match - Choose complementary outfits, not ones that are matching. Choose 3-4 colours that look great together. If you have a larger family, have everyone wear those colours in different ways.

For Mom - Find a comfortable, stylish maternity dress in a soft, muted tone. The beauty of using my client wardrobe is that they’re mostly bump-friendly, look great before and after baby. Even better is that you don’t need to buy a dress that you’ll wear once.

For Dad - We want Dad to feel comfortable and look stylish. Choose a neutral, solid shirt such as a plain T-shirt or a Henley. Khakis in a different neutral colour work well for pants.

For Boys - Similar to Dad, we want your boys to feel comfortable. Choose an outfit that complements Dad’s, and you know your son will feel okay wearing it.

For Girls - Your little girl can shine in her dress during the maternity session. Look for a white or neutral dress that fits and is comfortable. But don’t worry, we always add little shorts underneath so your daughter can still play and not worry about her dress lifting.

Shoes - Choose a classic neutral shoe such as tan loafers or sandals. In the studio, we recommend staying barefoot for a casual, natural look.

If reading these tips overwhelm you, you are far from alone. My client wardrobe has clothing for your entire family. All you have to do is come to the studio and shop my closet.
