What to Wear When Doing Maternity Portraits with other Children

There was some concern about coordinating outfits. I knew I wanted to see her in this sage colored dress from Chicaboo. I saw the little boy and knew he would be perfect for the little outfit I had ordered. Now his outfit was brown; however, I changed it to a variation of sage in the post processing. This is not something I typically do (change colors in Photoshop), but it really seemed to work in this case.

Maternity Posing with Another Child

Other children in your maternity photos can add such a personal touch. There is nothing like sharing the bond with baby’s siblings. Children can be held, as seen above, holding on to mom, placing a hand on moms belly or even giving mom a sweet kiss.

If you are doing a lifestyle session at home, the family gathering on the bed it perfect as seen with the image below. But why a bed? Is this a trend? I get asked a lot about this. Truth is the bedroom is the most intimate space you have. What better place to celebrate love?

If you are ready to book your session, I am ready to get you on the schedule. Lets talk!
