The Best Time to Have Maternity Pictures Taken

Many expecting moms ask, “When is the best time to have maternity pictures taken?” Our suggestion is between 28 and 34 weeks, depending whether this is a first pregnancy or not. It all depends on when the belly really starts showing and the comfort level of the expecting mother. We want moms to be as comfortable as possible, so we take the time to talk about potential options during our planning appointment prior to the session.

They won’t let me swap them out or move them!

When we moved into our home over 10 years ago, I put framed images of each of our kids above our fireplace. I had the intention of moving them when I found a piece of artwork that worked with the space. 

Time passed and I mentioned to my kids that I would be relocating their elementary portraits. 

I was not expecting their response. All three of them objected to this idea. 

In my mind, I was the one who really cared about our family portraits, especially the framed pictures on our walls. 

It wasn’t until I suggested moving the pictures that I realized how important they were to each of my teenage kids!

To them, those pictures represented their childhood. Those memories were a part of their home, their upbringing and their security within it. 

My eyes were opened to the value of a framed photographed that is prominently displayed in the home. 

It’s not just about looking pretty. It represents emotional depth in a child’s life. Something deeper than we will ever know. 

To all the parents reading this, you NEED framed photographs of your family in your home. 

What would it take in order to make that happen?

Much love,
Rachel
