Maternity photography
Maternity Photography in Connecticut
A maternity session keeps this stage of your life in portraits, whether you choose a studio, an outdoor location or your home. We plan it to be comfortable and unhurried.
Plan a maternity session
Tell us the setting you have in mind and what would make the session comfortable, and we will talk through timing and location.
Studio, outdoor or at home
Maternity portraits can be made in a studio, outdoors or at home. The setting changes the look: studio sessions use controlled light, outdoor sessions use natural light and scenery, and at-home sessions are relaxed and personal.
We plan the session so you are comfortable throughout, with posing and styling suggestions along the way.
Why have maternity photos taken
- Keep this stage of pregnancy in good-quality portraits
- Posing and lighting planned for you
- Portraits with a partner, children or pets
- Images for birth announcements, baby shower displays and keepsakes
- Photos you can share with your child later

Planning the timing of your session
From a photography point of view, timing is about how you want the portraits to look and how you expect to feel on the day. Some people prefer a session when the bump is more defined, others prefer a little earlier, and the right time depends on your comfort and personal circumstances.
We keep the schedule flexible. Choose a date that works for you and the guidance of your own healthcare team, tell us what you need, and we can plan the pace, the setting and the length of the session around it.
Who can be in the photos
Partners, children and pets are all welcome in a session. Tell us who you would like included and we will plan portraits for them as well as for you.
