Pregnancy is a beautiful, once-in-a-lifetime journey, and capturing this special moment is a wonderful way to preserve the anticipation and love of welcoming your new baby. At Chunky Monkey Photography, maternity sessions are designed to be relaxed, enjoyable, and full of beautiful memories. Here’s what you can expect during your session.

The ideal time for maternity photos is between 28–34 weeks, when your belly is beautifully rounded but you’re still comfortable moving and posing. Before your session, we’ll discuss location ideas, wardrobe choices, and any props you’d like to include. This planning ensures your session feels personal, seamless, and stress-free.

Whether you prefer a natural outdoor setting or a more intimate indoor studio session, Chunky Monkey Photography offers plenty of options. From blooming gardens in spring to open fields in the warmer months, or cozy, calm studio setups, we help you choose a location that complements your style and vision.


Your maternity session is all about celebrating you and your baby. Expect:
Guided Poses: I’ll help you find flattering, comfortable poses that highlight your bump while keeping you relaxed.
Wardrobe and Flowing Dresses: Soft fabrics, flowing dresses, or personal outfits can enhance the look and feel of your session.
Props and Personal Items: Anything meaningful, like baby shoes, ultrasound photos, or signs, can be included to make your session special.
Partner and Sibling Photos: Including family members adds connection and emotional depth to your images.
Maternity photography should be about celebration, not stress. I guide you gently through each pose, keeping the session calm and enjoyable. There’s no rushing—just a focus on capturing the love, anticipation, and beauty of this stage.

The photos from your maternity session will be timeless keepsakes—images you’ll cherish forever and share with your child when they arrive. These photos aren’t just about your belly—they’re about your family, your story, and the joy of welcoming new life.
With Chunky Monkey Photography, your maternity session is a personalized, fun, and meaningful experience. From planning to posing to capturing the moments you’ll treasure forever, I’m here to make this milestone unforgettable.
With love,
Heather Bush | Chunky Monkey Photography
