Choosing what to wear for your maternity photos can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be. For the best experience, choose a studio that allows multiple looks during your maternity session and provides personalized styling guidance.
Here’s a simple guide to help you feel confident, beautiful, and fully prepared.
 
1. Denim Jeans & a White Top
Timeless and casual that photographs beautifully on everyone. Choose from:
- white relaxed button-down shirt
- white lace bralette
- white sports bra
- white bando
- white crop top
- Soft pastel top
- Add a bouquet of flowers for extra sweetness
2. Opt for Flowy or Fitted Dresses
Both styles work beautifully:
- Flowy gowns create movement and elegance—the ultimate classic & timeless option
- Fitted dresses highlight your bump & are perfect for silhouettes
- Silk dresses are simple & elegant
- Maternity robes add a little lace or intricate detail to your session & are perfect for implied nudes or with a bodysuit
3. BODYSUITS
Modern & Stylish. Perfect for focusing on your bump.
Choose from:
- Long-sleeve bodysuits
- Spaghetti-strap bodysuits
- Halter bodysuits
- Asymmetric Bodysuits
- Lace bodysuits
 
4. Keep It Simple
Avoid:
- Busy patterns
- Logos
- Trend-heavy outfits
Timeless is always best.
5. Coordinate, Don’t Match (For Family Photos)
When including family:
- Stick to a cohesive color palette
- Avoid identical outfits
6. Consider a Studio Wardrobe
