Before your maternity and birth sessions, here are some key tips:
Maternity session: capture the curves that transform you into a mother
Maternity sessions are a unique moment in a woman’s life that conveys very emotional and artistic photographs.
The ideal time for this session is around 7 months, get in touch before to be able to plan well with the necessary time.
Communicate your expectations: Talk to us about your ideas, preferences and any concerns you have. The more communication there is, the better the end result.
Plan your outfit: Choose pieces that make you feel comfortable and confident and always be yourself. It can be short tops, open blouses, tight dresses, kaftans… let the belly show!
Opt for neutral colors and avoid large logos that can distract attention.
When in doubt, it’s always better to bring extra!
Photos as a couple: Go in sync, jeans, the dark jean is indomitable and remains timeless, one part of the top light and the other dark.
Remember dogs are always very welcome, you can also consider their colors.
Fabrics: The most photogenic fabrics are: leather, lace, wool, silk or lace.
Prepare meaningful props: Do you have a special object that you want to include in the photos? From a blanket knitted by your grandmother to your baby’s first pair of shoes or a shared hobby as a couple, these details add a personal touch to the images.
Rest and take care of your skin: Make sure you get enough rest the night before to look radiant in photos.
Newborn session: here is your little work of art!
Birth photo sessions are a unique opportunity to capture your baby’s first moments in this world. To ensure you get the most beautiful and meaningful photos, it’s important to prepare properly before your session. Here are some useful tips:
Plan ahead: Organize the session well in advance to avoid last-minute stress. Before the session, communicate your wishes, ideas and expectations. This will help create a collaborative atmosphere and ensure that the end result is just what you expect.
The ideal session for newborns is around ⅞ days, as here the baby still maintains flexibility and posture from inside the belly. He also sleeps a lot more! That’s why it’s easier to be able to create these characteristic photos without disturbing him.
Whenever possible, feed and change before leaving home to minimize interruptions during the session. Choose clothing that is easy to remove if you are sleeping.
For MOM and DAD
You can wear two molts that are synchronized and if possible in a neutral color (no pattern). You can wear long dark jeans and on top, a sweater or light-colored shirt and another darker or more colorful suit (black, gray, brown, blue…) Avoid too bright colors (red, yellow or vivid green).
We follow this idea also for the sibling(s). It can be a dress for girls.
Shirt? shirt? sweater?, long sleeve? short? it all depends on your style, the season and what you feel like wearing the most. If you did the maternity session with me, you can wear the same clothes again.
For the BABY: One or two Doudou or cute stuffed animals that are special to you. You can bring spare nappies, wipes, a blanket…
In the studio we have many accessories, especially fabrics with different textures and colors to be able to wrap your baby.
Our color palette is characterized by being neutral: white, beige, earth, grey, some pinks, greens and blues. If for your part you want to bring any accessories that you would like to appear in the session, you can bring them without a problem.
Relax and enjoy the Moment: Above all, remember to relax and enjoy this beautiful moment with your baby. Naturalness and spontaneity often result in the most emotional and authentic photos.
