If you’re pregnant and expecting in the Spring, then your ideal window for maternity photos is during the Winter months of December, January, and February. There are so many ways to get beautiful winter maternity photos in Rochester NY! We live in a winter wonderland, after all. But even if you’re not a fan of the cold, there’s still plenty of options for you.

When should you take maternity photos?

You should take your maternity photos between week 28-34, with week 30 being the sweet spot. During this window, your belly is nearing full grown but you’re still feeling good. I don’t recommend waiting past week 34. If you’re going to experience swelling and pain, it usually starts to set in around week 35. You want to feel good, have energy, and enjoy having your maternity photos taken so try to schedule your session for around week 30 to feel & look your best!
