Q: When Should I Book My Maternity Session?
-
As Soon As Possible! This allows us ample time to serve all of our clients fully and provide everyone with the very best experience, comfortable, and quality in our area!
Sessions are booked on a first come, first served basis – and they do sell out, FAST!Most moms to be secure their session date when they are 29-36 weeks pregnant.
While there may be times where we are able to accommodate a last minute booking, booking in advance is highly recommended.
It also allows us plenty of time to plan your session and chose gowns and looks!
-
Q: When Should We Do The Session?
-
I recommend first time moms to be with no known complications, schedule their maternity sessions in the range of 28-34 weeks gestation when you are showing well, and still feeling well and comfortable.
If this is your second baby, a twin or high risk pregnancy, if there is potential for a preterm delivery or if you have any other potential complications, we may opt to schedule the session sooner than 28 weeks.
If any of these situations apply to you, we will discuss that and come up with the best timeframe for you specifically!
The most important factor is that you are feeling well, comfortable, and enjoy your time!
