Top Maternity Photo Shoot Dresses for Unforgettable Pictures

Pregnancy is an incredibly special time in your life, so of course, you want to document it—baby bump and all. To that end, many women schedule a maternity photoshoot sometime between 28 and 32 weeks (a.k.a. the sweet spot before you’re too uncomfortable for a portrait session). Of course, once you’ve decided when you’ll be posing for pictures, it’s time to decide what you’ll be posing in. Our advice? Pick a maternity photoshoot dress that accentuates your beautiful bump. It’s what you’re celebrating, after all!

As you’re browsing through our list of maternity dresses for pictures, pay attention to style and fit. Consider clingy fabrics and figure-hugging silhouettes if you really want to emphasize your shape. Strategic ruching and belly-area embellishments can call attention to your baby bump too. Or, you can go all out with a sheer or open-front gown! Long, elegant maternity gowns also work well for photography (think: maxis decked out in lace and tulle). But at the end of the day, the best maternity shoot outfits can be glamorous or understated, as long as they make you feel like the gorgeous mama-to-be that you are.
