Maternity photoshoots are an excellent way to commemorate the special time of pregnancy and create lasting memories for your children and yourself to look back on. Ensure a smooth and beautiful photoshoot by following easy tips that can help you capture flattering photos without frumpy angles or poses.

Here are five steps to have you looking your best during your maternity photoshoot.

The location you choose for your photoshoot has a big impact on how your photos are going to turn out what mood and feel you are wanting from them. When choosing a location does it represent and showcase the look you are wanting?

Whether you go with the beach, bushland, forestry area, in your home or farmland – just make sure it is a location that you will want to showcase through out your home.

Step Two: Wearing a beautiful maternity dress or robe
Choose something that compliments both the mood of where you’re shooting and makes you feel confident. A dress or robe from our collection at Everything Lace Hire that moves when spinning is always a great touch – just make sure it doesn’t overpower either one of you! Our Coven and Co Pirate Queen Gown is always a flattering maternity dress that captures beautifully in all locations.

We all know that standing and posing during a photoshoot can feel awkward for most people but you will be guided during your maternity photographer.
The best angle that will highlight your bump gorgeously is by standing and posing slightly side on compared to if you faced straight on which can make you look bigger.

Gently cupping your bump during your maternity photoshoot will give an intimate feel and connection between you and bubbs as well as flatter both you and your growing baby belly. Plus, this is also a great opportunity to get other family members involved - have them kiss the bump or have your partner hold onto you. Our Wonderful Moments Gown allows you to cup your bump perfectly with it's lightweight chiffon material.

Capture some movement in order to show off that beautiful dress while also showing off how far along in pregnancy you are without having to say anything yourself. The perfect combination. Our Wish For It Gown is the perfect piece for movement and the soft tulle is extraordinary adding drama.

Getting ready for your maternity photos can be intimidating but don’t worry follow Everything Lace Hire's five simple steps and it will have your photos turning out looking luxurious and fabulous. Do not forget to enjoy this incredible moment in life - capturing these memories will last forever.
