Do You Need to Buy a Dress for Your Maternity Photos? (Good News)

Mar 28 2025 | By: Fernanda Bautzer

Let me lift a weight off your shoulders right now: no, you don't need to go buy a special dress for your maternity photos. The single most common worry I hear — "I have nothing to wear and I don't want to spend money on a dress I'll wear once" — has a very happy solution. My studio wardrobe is included in your session. Here's how it works.

The #1 maternity photo worry — solved

Buying a gorgeous gown you'll wear for one hour feels wasteful, and shopping while pregnant (and tired) is nobody's idea of fun. So I took that off your plate entirely. When you book with me, the wardrobe comes with the session — no rental fees, no shopping trips, no stress.

What's in my studio wardrobe

A curated collection built over years for exactly this: flowing gowns for that dreamy, ethereal look; soft robes for something more intimate and relaxed; and lifestyle pieces for a natural, everyday feel. Pieces are chosen to photograph beautifully and to flatter a range of bumps and body types.

How we choose your looks at the consultation

Before your session, we'll chat about the vibe you're after and pick your looks together, so everything's ready when you arrive. No guesswork, no last-minute panic — just you showing up and stepping into something beautiful.

Bringing your own meaningful pieces

The wardrobe is there to make life easy, not to box you in. If you have a dress you love, a piece with cultural meaning, or your partner's shirt you want in a shot — bring it. We can absolutely mix your personal pieces with the studio collection.

Sizes and fit for every bump

The collection spans a range of sizes, and because pregnant bodies change week to week, we'll choose based on where you are at your session — not where you were when you booked. The goal is for you to feel comfortable and gorgeous, full stop.

FAQ

Is the wardrobe really included, with no extra fee? Yes — it's part of your maternity session at no additional cost.

Can I wear my own dress instead? Of course — bring anything meaningful and we'll style it in.

What if nothing fits the way I hoped on the day? The collection covers a range of sizes, and we choose your looks at your session based on your current bump, so fit is built in.
