Best Time For A Pregnancy Photoshoot

A frequently asked question is when is the best time for a pregnancy photoshoot.

I recommend maternity photography sessions take place between 31-34 weeks of pregnancy or when your belly goes past your bust-line.

This is a great time as it is obvious that you are pregnant so you can show off your beautiful curves. It is also a time when you are still fairly comfortable and therefore are able to move more freely. Of course, this is just a guideline. Every woman is different in her pregnancy journey. If you aren’t showing much during these weeks, just hold off until your belly has popped out a bit more. This is why I mention waiting until your belly goes past your bust-line.

This is such a wonderful time in a woman’s life and worth documenting. Your finished photographic artwork will mean more to you as the years go by and your children will love looking at these portraits as they grow up. What an amazing gift to be able to see your mom carrying you with so much love, excitement and anticipation!

As this family’s pregnancy photoshoot shows, most maternity sessions take place outdoors with Yvonne Niemann Photography, as I love how the natural settings of mother nature enhances the beauty of pregnancy. Other expecting moms prefer the comfort of their home for their portraits, which is equally meaningful and fitting during this time of a woman’s life. Regardless of location, these sessions are relaxed and natural.

If you are expecting and would like to document this miraculous time, contact Athens, GA maternity photographers of Yvonne Niemann Photography to schedule your own pregnancy photoshoot. Both petite and premium sessions are available. Inquire for details. info@yvonneniemannphotography.com  |  706.713.0676

Photographed around her first birthday against one of my hand-painted muslin backdrops, this little one’s portraits have a soft, painterly quality designed to remain beautiful for generations.

Wondering when to schedule your maternity photos? I typically recommend planning your session toward the beginning of the third trimester - when your beautiful belly is showing, but you are still comfortable enough to move, explore and enjoy the experience.

This summer maternity session took place along the shoals, where the cool water offered a refreshing escape from the Georgia heat and a beautiful setting for documenting this family before their newest little one arrived.

The third trimester is also the perfect time to reserve your newborn session. I keep my newborn calendar intentionally light and flexible, so whether your baby arrives earlier or later than expected, your family is guaranteed a place on my schedule.

Sibling images are such an important part of a newborn session. They preserve the very beginning of a lifelong relationship—the wonder, curiosity and tenderness of welcoming a new baby into the family.

Toddlers do not always understand posing, so sometimes we turn it into a game. For this image, I tucked a little surprise near baby brother, encouraging his big sister to lean in and look closely. The result is a beautifully natural moment that feels connected, timeless and entirely her.
