THE Maternity PREP GUIDE
Expecting mamas are typically scheduled to be photographed between 28-33 weeks gestation.
We recommend booking your maternity session in the second trimester, when you are around 15-20 weeks to guarantee our availability, and to give us plenty of time to plan your session, with also having a buffer to reschedule, should something arise with you or baby. If you have missed this window, be sure to reach out asap!
WHAT TO EXPECT....
Lets get started!
Sweet Pea Studio offers stunning portraits that will forever capture the growing bond between you and your baby.
During the wait for your new baby, let me capture your beauty in an artistic way. It is the beauty, frozen in time, that you and your family will be able to enjoy over and over again. Even though you might not think so right now, someday you will miss the bump that you have right now.
Take advantage of this opportunity to capture these memories, so that you can relive them again and again. Motherhood is a powerful, life-changing experience.
During your pregnancy, I strive to capture every detail perfectly. When you slip into your beautiful maternity gown and are in front of the camera, you are sure to feel like a goddess!
TOP TIPS....
You should allow yourself to arrive 5-10 minutes before your scheduled time to allow for any traffic.
Make sure your nails are clean, and painted a neutral color.
I reccomend hiring a hair/make up stylist for your session, if it is in your budget!
Take off any watches/wrist bands/jewelry you do not want in photos
Relax and enjoy the experience!
frequently asked questions.....
CAN I BRING MY PARTNER OR MY CHILDREN?
We also offer maternity sessions for dads, partners, significant others, and siblings when desired, if you would like to include them in the session. The main focus will be on YOU and your glowing pregnancy, but I love the idea of having your partner or other kiddos hop in for some!
At this time I do not provide any outfits for my maternity sessions. I can recommend websites to purchase them from, and I can help you decide on what gown/outfit would look best.
I hope to have a client closet in the future.
Your proof images will be ready for viewing within 3 business days of your session. Once chosen favorites, I will have final edited gallery within 2 weeks.
Any additional images are $15 per image. You will have the option to fully upgrade the gallery for a flat fee.
I know life happens, or weather happens. If the need to reschedule arises, I offer 1 reschedule with no charge. After that, there will be a reschedule fee.
