CONGRATULATIONS!

Hey there, lovely moms-to-be!

As someone who values family and cherishes those special memories, I understand the importance of capturing the beauty and glow of this precious time through maternity photoshoots. You might be wondering - when is the best time to book your maternity photos? Let's dive in and find out.

Here in Swansboro, we're lucky to experience all four seasons, each offering its own unique charm and backdrop for your maternity photoshoot. From the blooming flowers of spring to the golden hues of autumn, there's no shortage of stunning scenery to complement your radiant glow. But when it comes to timing, there are a few key factors to consider.

First and foremost, it's essential to book your maternity photoshoot at a time when you feel comfortable and confident! For many moms-to-be, this is typically around the 28 to 32-week mark. At this stage, your belly is beautifully rounded, and you're likely feeling your best – not too early in your pregnancy to be uncomfortable, yet not too late when you might be feeling more tired or swollen.

Of course, every pregnancy is different, so it's essential to listen to your body and choose a time that feels right for you. Whether you prefer the comfort of an indoor environment at our studio or golden glow of sunset, we'll work together to find the perfect time and location for your maternity photoshoot.

Another factor to consider is the changing seasons and weather conditions in the Swasnboro and Emerald Isle area. If you're dreaming of capturing the vibrant colors of fall foliage or the delicate blossoms of spring, it's important to plan your photoshoot accordingly. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and be flexible with your scheduling to ensure we capture the beauty of the season in all its glory.

But regardless of the time of year or weather conditions, the most important thing is to capture the love and anticipation you feel as you await the arrival of your little one. Whether you're a first-time mom filled with excitement and wonder or a seasoned grandmother eagerly awaiting the newest addition to your family, your maternity photoshoot is a celebration of life, love, and the incredible journey of motherhood.

At, Samantha Ann Photo, we understand the significance of this special time in your life, and we're honored to be a part of it! From helping you choose the perfect location to guiding you through poses that showcase your natural beauty, we're here to ensure that your maternity photoshoot is an experience you'll cherish for years to come.
