Booking & Planning

When should I book my maternity session? Most sessions take place between 24–32 weeks, depending on how you’re feeling and how defined your bump is. If you’re expecting twins or have a smaller frame, an earlier session may be more suitable.

How do I book? Simply submit an enquiry with your due date, and I’ll confirm availability and next steps.

What should I wear? You’ll receive guidance on wardrobe after booking, along with access to a curated selection of studio pieces. We’ll plan your styling together based on the look you’d like to achieve.

What time of day are sessions held? Studio sessions can be scheduled at various times, including evenings, and weekends. When choosing a time, it’s best to allow for a relaxed lead-in to your session, particularly if you’re arranging hair and makeup beforehand.

Do you provide hair & makeup? Hair and makeup can be arranged as part of your session. If included, additional time should be allowed beforehand. We can plan this during your consultation.

Do I need to know how to pose? No — your session is fully guided throughout. You’ll be directed step by step, so you always know what to do.
