FAQs — Maternity

When should I schedule my maternity session?
Maternity sessions are best scheduled between 28–34 weeks, when your baby bump is beautifully defined but you’re still comfortable. I recommend booking early to reserve availability in my Rochester Hills studio or at outdoor locations throughout Metro Detroit.

What should I wear for maternity photos?
After booking, you’ll receive styling suggestions to help you choose soft, timeless pieces that photograph beautifully. Neutral tones, flowing fabrics, and simple textures work best. A curated client wardrobe is also available for select sessions.

Can my partner or children be included?
Yes! Maternity sessions are designed to capture connection and anticipation, and partners and siblings are always welcome.

Where do maternity sessions take place?
Sessions are held in my light-filled Rochester Hills studio or at outdoor locations across Oakland County and Metro Detroit.
