The Significance of Maternity Beach Sessions

Maternity beach sessions hold a special significance in capturing the essence of motherhood.They are my favorite types of maternity sessions to capture. The sound of crashing waves and the gentle touch of sand beneath your feet create a serene atmosphere that allows you to connect with the natural beauty around you.

A maternity beach session allows you to celebrate the beauty of your changing body. Pregnancy is a time of transformation, and the beach provides a unique canvas to showcase the glow and radiance that comes with carrying new life. The soft, golden light that often graces the beach during sunrise or sunset adds an ethereal touch to your photographs, enhancing the natural beauty of the expectant mother.

When you look back at your maternity beach session photos, you will be able to relive the joy, excitement, and anticipation of this special time in your life. It is a visual reminder of the strength and beauty that you possess as a woman and as a mother-to-be.

Choosing the Right Beach Location for Your Maternity Session

When selecting a beach location for your maternity session, do you prefer a secluded and intimate beach, or are you drawn to the vibrant energy of a popular beach? There is definitely both options that offer within the North Carolina coast.There are a few beaches I love to shoot at including Wrightsville Beach, North Topsail Beach and North Carolina Beach State Park. I love warm tones and light creams that these locations bring. My maternity sessions are held an hour before sunset and I provide a variety of maternity gowns that you can choose from.

Planning Your Maternity Session Outfits

Your choice of outfits for your maternity beach session can greatly impact the overall look and feel of your photos. When selecting your outfits, consider the colors that complement your skin tone and the beach environment. Soft earthy tones, and shades of blue often work well in beach settings, creating a harmonious and cohesive look.

Flowy dresses and maxi skirts are popular choices for maternity beach sessions as they accentuate the curves of your baby bump while allowing for movement and creating a whimsical and romantic look.

If you prefer a more casual and relaxed vibe, opt for a comfortable yet stylish ensemble. Pair a loose-fitting top with maternity jeans or shorts for a laid-back beach look. Don’t be afraid to accessorize with a wide-brimmed hat, statement jewelry to add an extra touch of personality to your outfit.

Remember to dress in layers to accommodate changing weather conditions. The beach can be unpredictable, so having options like a light cardigan or a sheer cover-up will ensure your comfort throughout the session. I have a variety to choose from.

When choosing outfits for your partner or other family members participating in the session, coordinate colors and styles to create a cohesive and visually pleasing look. You can opt for complementary colors or stick to a neutral palette to let the natural beauty of the beach shine through. If you are expecting be sure to book your 3D/4D ultrasound with Wombs Window to receive a gift card to use towards your maternity session with me.
