FAQ

The ideal window is 26–32 weeks—your bump shows beautifully and you’ll still feel comfortable moving and posing.
For multiples, book a little earlier (24–28 weeks). For a second or later pregnancy, many bumps show sooner—26–30 weeks often works best.

We’ll plan everything on a call or via emails. I’ll guide outfits, grooming, and what to bring so you feel relaxed and know exactly what to expect.

Yes—my studio wardrobe includes couture gowns, drapes and accessories in many sizes, plus full styling guidance.
Absolutely. Bring 1–2 favorites you love; simple, solid tones photograph best. We can mix them with studio gowns.
