Best light of the day for Babymoon & Maternity photoshoot
Are you expecting a baby and wondering when is the best time for maternity photos? The ideal time for a maternity photo session is between 28 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. At this stage, your baby bump is prominent, and you're not too uncomfortable to move around or pose for photos. However, every pregnancy is different, and you should choose a time that works best for you. If you want to capture the early stages of your pregnancy, you can schedule a session between 20 and 24 weeks. On the other hand, if you prefer to wait until the last minute, you can schedule a session up to 38 weeks.
The beach offers a beautiful and serene backdrop, while a park provides a natural and rustic setting. Best times are sunrise as the lighting is softer and more pastel in coloring. And if you have small toddlers this is a great time to bring them with you. If you desire a more dramatic look, then sunset time is ideal.
Another important factor to consider when planning your maternity photo session is what to wear. Choose clothing that makes you feel comfortable and confident. A flowy dress or a fitted maternity gown can flatter your baby bump and create a timeless and elegant look. You can also add some accessories, such as a flower crown also called a “Haku” or a flower lei, to elevate your outfit. Finally, don't forget to involve your partner and any other children in the session. This allows you to capture the love and connection between your family and your baby. With these tips in mind, you can plan a beautiful and memorable maternity photo session that celebrates this special moment in your life here in Maui.
