Benefits of a Studio Maternity Photo Shoot

 

Pregnancy is a beautiful, fleeting experience in a mother’s life.

Those nine months go by in a blink of an eye (well, maybe not the last few weeks). I know some mamas who miss their bumps and some who couldn’t wait for pregnancy to be over. For both types of experiences, I think all mamas look back on their pregnancies with fondness. Pregnancy is when you begin to build an incredible bond with your child.


Documenting this special time with a maternity portrait session is the perfect way to hold onto these memories. If you’re researching maternity photos, you may wonder if you’d like a studio maternity session. I’d love to share several benefits of a studio maternity photo shoot with you.

7 Benefits Of A Studio Maternity Photo Shoot

1. Won’t Be Rescheduled Due To Weather

I usually recommend taking maternity portraits around 32 weeks of pregnancy. We don't want to worry about rescheduling due to the weather. With a studio session, your maternity session will take place rain or shine inside the studio.

2. Temperature Controlled

I cannot understate the benefit of temperature control. You’ll never have to worry about feeling too hot or too cold during your session. It’s always the perfect temperature in here. This is great to keep mamas and the rest of the family comfortable. Speaking of family…

3. Your Other Children Are Welcome (and contained)


I highly encourage including your older children in your maternity photo shoot. This is a beautiful way for them to feel excited about the new baby while feeling like they are part of this big change. The beauty of a studio session means your older children won’t be running around a park or beach, giving you one less thing to worry about.

4. Privacy And Comfort

Maternity portraits are an incredible and intimate session. This is your chance to let your guard down and truly celebrate the miracle that is pregnancy. A studio session offers comfort and privacy so that you don’t have to worry about other people looking on during your session.

5. Amenities At Your Fingertips

Need to pee? Thirsty? The bathroom and water bottle are just a few steps away during a studio session. You won’t need to worry about pausing your session to run to the bathroom or grab a sip of water.

6. No Walking Around Or Cleaning Hassle

My mama’s safety and comfort are my top priority during any maternity session. I love being able to offer a comfortable and safe environment for maternity portraits. My clients don’t need to walk far to the perfect spot; the perfect spot is right here. There’s no need to rush around, clean, or declutter your home because it’s all a beautiful blank canvas here at Reflections.

7. Relax And Enjoy A Full-Service Maternity Photo Shoot Experience

With my full-service photography process, I take care of everything on the day of the session. My maternity clients enjoy full hair, makeup, and even their choice from my client wardrobe. Once you step into my studio, you can relax and enjoy your experience.

Another benefit of a studio maternity photo shoot is that you can build a relationship with your photographer. Some of my clients' maternity photos are their first professional portraits since their wedding.

Your full-service maternity photography session allows you to get comfortable with your photographer. After your maternity session, you’ll feel excited about your upcoming newborn photography session. Documenting this incredible time for you and your family means the world to me. Please contact me if you’re interested in scheduling your session or have any questions.
