As a Miami Maternity Photographer, I do a lot of beach sessions. They are actually one of my favorite kind of sessions! Maternity sessions on the beach are a wonderful way to celebrate the beauty of pregnancy while embracing the tranquil and relaxed ambiance of the seashore. The combination of soft sand, sparkling water and breathtaking sunset creates a picturesque backdrop that enhances the joy and anticipation of this special time. To ensure your beach maternity session is a memorable experience, here are 4 tips that will help you make the most out of your photoshoot.

 

 

1. Why the beach?

You have so many options for your maternity photoshoot, like at home, studio (all so beautiful!). But there’s something romantic, dreamy and stunning about a beach session. Just imagine your pregnancy glow, a gorgeous sunset while listening to the sounds of the waves, and some sweet intimate moments with your loved one while I capture it all for you, is just something so special.

 

 

2. Timing is everything.

Choosing the right time for your maternity beach session is crucial. The golden hour, which is one hour before sunset, offers a magical lighting that adds a warm, dreamy glow to your photos. During golden hour, the soft sunlight casts a gentle radiance on your skin, creating a stunning and flattering effect. It is my favorite time to shoot at!

 

 

3. Dress comfortably and beautifully. 

Don’t worry, I give you all the tips to coordinate your outfits and moms can even borrow a dress from my curated client closet for their session. Long flowy dresses are definitely my favorites, as they photograph perfectly, especially at the beach. These dresses allow you to feel comfortable, all while adding some movement to the pictures and accentuate your baby bump. Soft pastels and earthy tones complement the natural beach surroundings and create a serene and ethereal vibe.

 

 

4. Make a statement: add an accessory. 

Add a personal touch to your memories by adding an accessory, like a beach sun hat, or a few flowers can add a visual interest. These props not only enhance your photos but also provide you with something to interact with, allowing for natural and candid moments that showcase your connection with your growing baby.
