FAQ

The best time to take maternity photos is typically during weeks 30-35. This is a popular timeframe for maternity photos because the belly is usually prominent, and the mother-to-be is still reasonably comfortable. The exact timing within this range depends on individual preferences and how you're feeling. Some prefer to wait until closer to 34 weeks for a more pronounced belly, while others may want to do the session a bit earlier to avoid any potential discomfort.

Absolutely! I love including siblings and pets in maternity photography sessions. It's a great way to capture the bond between siblings and the love a new baby brings to the family. Just let me know in advance if you would like to include siblings or pets in the session, and I will make sure to allow extra time for these images.

Yes! I encourage my clients to bring any special props or outfits they would like to include in the session. This could include sonograph of the baby, baby outfits, or anything else that has special meaning to you. Please let me know in advance if you have any specific items you would like to use, and I will ensure to allow extra time to incorporate them into the session.

Absolutely. I fully respect your privacy. You may choose to keep your images completely private and not shared on my website, social media, or marketing materials. However, because portfolio images are an important part of how I grow my small business, a 10% Image Non-Usage Privacy Fee applies to sessions where clients request full privacy and opt out of all sharing.

If you still wish to allow some level of privacy without the fee, I also offer the following options at no additional cost:

• Limited Sharing (No Child Full Facial View) - Permission to share images only if the child(ren)’s full face is not visible. Images may include parents or adults, as well as non-identifiable photographs of children, such as detail shots (hands, feet), back-facing images, or side/profile views where the child’s facial features are not clearly identifiable.
• Limited Sharing (No Faces) - Permission to share images only if no faces of any participants are visible. This may include detail shots, hands, close-ups, back-facing images, over-the-shoulder views, side/profile views with no identifiable facial features, or silhouettes.

You are always in control of how your images are used, and your preference will be recorded in your client file.

I offer a 10% off both packages bundle when you book either the In Home or In Studio newborn session and my maternity session together.

No—proof images are delivered with a watermark and are for viewing and selection purposes only. They are lightly edited so you can choose your favourites for final retouching.

Yes, absolutely! If you’d like more images than what’s included in your package, you’ll have the option to purchase individual extra photos or even upgrade to the full gallery.
