As a trusted Baltimore maternity photographer, I often get asked a variety of questions by expecting parents who are planning their maternity photoshoots. Here are some of the most common questions I encounter, along with my advice:

What Do I Need to Prefer For My Maternity Photoshoot?

When choosing a maternity photographer, it’s important to consider your personal preferences and style. Do you prefer natural, posed, or a mix of both types of photos? Look at the photographer’s portfolio to get an idea of their artistic style and approach.

Will You Guide Me All The Way?

A professional maternity photographer will guide the photoshoot, including helping you choose flattering poses and angles, selecting appropriate locations, and ensuring that you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

What Should I Bring During the Shoot?

It’s a good idea to bring a variety of clothing options, including both casual and formal attire. You may also want to bring props such as baby shoes, ultrasound photos, or flowers.

Should I Get a Spray Tan?

A spray tan can help to even out your skin tone and give you a healthy glow for your photoshoot. However, it’s important to get a spray tan a few days before your shoot so that it has time to develop and fade naturally.

Should I Have My Hair and Makeup Done?

While it’s not necessary to have your hair and makeup professionally done, it can help to enhance your look for your photos. If you choose to do your hair and makeup, be sure to use natural, flattering shades and avoid overdoing it.

Should I Wear Nail Polish and Jewellery?

Simple, understated nail polish and jewelry can add a touch of elegance to your maternity photos. However, it’s important to avoid anything too flashy or distracting.

Can I Bring My 2-Year-Old Toddler?

Bringing your toddler along to your maternity photoshoot can be a great way to capture the special bond between you and your family. However, it’s important to make sure that your toddler is comfortable and well-behaved during the shoot. It may be helpful to bring a babysitter or family member along to help with your toddler.
