Best Time to Take Maternity Photos
Pregnancy is such a beautiful season of life, and maternity photos are the perfect way to celebrate the journey to motherhood. One of the most common questions expecting moms ask is:
“When is the best time to take maternity photos?”
1. The Ideal Timeframe: 28–34 Weeks
The best time for maternity photos is usually between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. Around this stage, your bump is round and visible, but you’re still comfortable enough to enjoy the session.
2. Why This Stage Works Best
This timeframe is perfect because your baby bump has a beautiful shape, you still have good energy for posing, and it allows flexibility for reschedules if needed, especially with unpredictable Oregon weather.
3. Studio or Outdoor Options
Outdoor maternity sessions around Beaverton, Lake Oswego, or Forest Grove make use of Oregon’s seasonal beauty, while studio sessions in my Beaverton studio on Barnes Ave provide privacy, comfort, and styling no matter the weather.
✨ Remember: The best time for maternity photos is when you feel confident and ready to celebrate this special chapter. Booking between 28 and 34 weeks gives you the best chance to capture timeless images of your bump and your growing family.
