WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY MATERNITY PORTRAITS | KATY MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER

Becoming a mother for the first time is a profound and transformative milestone in a woman’s life. It’s a journey filled with both incredible highs and challenging moments. While pregnancy isn’t always smooth sailing, it’s a beautiful and deeply personal experience that deserves to be celebrated and cherished in a truly meaningful way.

So when is the perfect time for your maternity session? As a maternity photographer in Katy, I suggest to my clients the beginning of the third trimester (around 28 weeks).

• This is often the sweet spot when your bump is beautifully pronounced, but mamas are usually still feeling great without feeling “too big” or uncomfortable.
• It’s uncommon for moms to go into labor at the start of the third trimester, but as you near your due date, the risk of early labor increases.
• Scheduling your maternity session around 28 weeks ensures that I have ample time to edit and deliver your gallery before your little one makes their grand entrance.
