We want to help you celebrate the magic of being pregnant. All the new curves and the big beautiful bump. What your body is doing is a miracle, and we want to help you both feel and look great. Show off this incredible new look through an empowering and tasteful maternity photo session. We want to highlight all of your best features and create beautiful photographs that capture your pregnancy glow.
What is Maternity Boudoir Photography?
Pregnancy is a beautiful and fleeting moment. Your new curves and the life blossoming inside of you deserve to be celebrated and documented!
A maternity boudoir photoshoot celebrates the beauty and femininity of pregnancy. Similar to any other boudoir photoshoot, you will be photographed in outfits and poses that emphasize your sensual side. But maternity boudoir is about so much more than just wearing lingerie - it’s about celebrating your journey into motherhood and the magic of your body supporting a new life.
Why Book a Maternity Boudoir Photoshoot?
Every pregnancy is worth celebrating! Your body is doing the amazing work of creating a new life and that deserves to be honored and documented.
Right now, if might feel like you’ve been pregnant FOREVER! But in hindsight, you will realize that your pregnancy was such a short moment in time before your beautiful baby arrived. A maternity boudoir photoshoot will give you images to look back on and cherish for a lifetime. The images that we create together at the studio will remind you of the beauty, strength, and power of your pregnancy.
A maternity boudoir shoot will highlight your glowing skin and hair, show off the curve of your baby bump, and remind you of the preciousness of the life growing inside of you.
What Outfits Should I Wear for a Maternity Boudoir Photoshoot?
One of the great things about a maternity boudoir photoshoot is that there are no rules about what you have to wear!
Your wardrobe choices will depend on your personal style, what you’re comfortable with, and the types of images you want to create. You might want to wear a bra and panty set, a lace gown, a form-fitting dress, a fabric drape or nothing at all. We’re here to help style you and choose wardrobe items that will look great on camera! We will send you a prep guide before your boudoir shoot with links and photos of outfits that are perfect for a maternity boudoir photoshoot. For more inspiration, check out the gallery below!
When Should I Do My Maternity Boudoir Photoshoot?
Plan to come into the Chicago Boudoir Photography studio for your maternity boudoir shoot between 28 and 36 weeks of your pregnancy. Shooting during this window gives you the best of both worlds: your belly is a perfect bump but you’ll still feel comfortable enough to pose for photos.
Every maternity shoot includes:
Celebrate the beauty of motherhood. Cherish the anticipation.
Happy Pregnancy!
“My journey to having a baby was hard. So I knew that I wanted to document and look back on this time later in life and really be able to celebrate being pregnant.
The whole boudoir experience was AMAZING. Liz worked with me and posed me in ways that I didn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable, and really made me feel beautiful.
Thank you, Liz, for this timeless gift I will treasure forever!”
- Shannon
