Where?
The choice of place is fundamental to make a Maternity Photo Session that translates your way of being. It is always important to consider all the factors involved. If it is not too far, if the sessions is performed in parks, there may be restrictions. If there are restrooms close by. It is also important to consider that in an essay like this it is normal to walk a lot to reach the most beautiful places and give more diversity to the photo session.

When?
Six or even months is usually the ideal time, but you can do it anytime, provided you keep in mind that in the last few months it is common for the pregnant to feel some discomfort and swelling.
What about the weather?
Most people think that a sunny, cloudless day is ideal for shooting. It’s a common mistake. Facing the sun people can not keep their eyes open and their backs appear just like a silhouette against a lighted background. There are also cloudy days and gray skies that look ugly, and more rarely on special days for a few minutes we have a wonderful light that spreads with a golden glow over people covering them with an aura.
That’s why each photo session is unique. With a lot of experience and equipment we can create wonderful images in the most diverse climate situations.
If the sun is strong, we compensate for that light. If the weather is cloudy, let us explore the beauty of the clouds. If it is sunset or dawn, we will make a perfect background. Your photo session will never be the same as other people’s, it will be unique. No matter the weather.
What does the photographer need to have?
Experience and renovation. Even after thousands (yes, thousands) of photo sessions we continue to learn and to study every day.
Know how to position people, use aesthetic rules that value the beauty of the image. And lots of equipment. Real professional cameras that can capture good images even in adverse conditions. Lighting equipment that compensates for common light variations in the external environment. Lenses that allow us for creative blur or panoramic images that can capture all the extension of an environment.
And above all, an immense affection for what he does and for whom he does.
Who can participate?
In outdoor settings photo sessions are conducted as a walk. Generally, family members participate, help and have fun. And we can still take those special creatures that are often also part of our families. Our pets.
What to wear?
Choose your clothing in advance and keep in mind that comfort is very important. We want to capture images as if you were in a beautiful dream, so how are you over there?
Look for references on the internet.
We often opted for a basic look so your photos will not look outdated over the years.
If possible, choose neutral colors with soft, fluid fabrics.
Whites, creams, very soft pastels, oatmeal, light brown, tans and slate blates.
But wait! Not a rule, okay? Maybe you are a person who feels better using very bold colors. It’s up to you.
Baby objects: shoes, clothes, toys. They’re great for personalizing your photo shoot
Is makeup necessary?
That’s your day, you are the star and we want you to shine.
Most studios simply do not care about make-up, but we think this is indispensable and so our makeup artist follows the photo shoot by doing all that is necessary to do her make-up on the set and give that special touch when necessary.
