Frequently asked questions
How far along should I be for the maternity photo session?
— Typically, for a lovely baby bump to show off, we recommend to come in the studio between 29 to 35 weeks, as you will still feel comfortable and not too tired. This said, Ameline Studio always listens to your preferences, and believes that the ideal time is of course the one you decide.
Can my partner and other children be included in the photo shoot?
— Oui! We will discuss all the important details together, and will make sure to address expectations prior to the shoot.
How long does a pregnancy session last?
— A pregnancy shoot generally lasts about one hour, but this can vary depending, for example, on the number of children you already have and how old they are if they want to participate in the session. We set a quiet pace and try to remain within two hours.
