SPOKANE MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER: When should I book my maternity session?
The simple answer to when to book maternity sessions is when you think about it! The earlier you get on my books the better in order to ensure that you’ll get a session. I typically try to leave some room in my schedule for unexpected maternity and newborn photos. I really prioritize these shoots, because they are my favorite and this season of life is fleeting so there are only short windows of opportunity to get these photos.
We will book your session around week 30 of your pregnancy. I find that week 30 is when the belly really pops, but the serious swelling hasn’t usually set in. Most women are still feeling pretty well at this point which makes for a happier mama at the photos.
Maternity sessions are a great way to connect with your spouse and older children before baby arrives. This is also a great opportunity to honor your body and the amazing things that it is doing for you and your little one. Some day, your baby will grow and wonder what mama looked like while she was pregnant and you’ll be able to pull these photos out and show him or her.
