Beautiful maternity photographs begin with feeling comfortable, confident and completely yourself.
One of the biggest questions I receive before a maternity session is, "What am I going to wear?"
The lovely thing is that you don't need to purchase a whole new wardrobe. At my Drury, South Auckland studio, you'll have access to my extensive collection of over 150 maternity gowns, along with fitted dresses, flowing fabrics and relaxed lifestyle pieces.
I'll help you choose beautiful outfits that complement your style, your bump and the photographs you'd love to create.
Something Beautiful for Every Style
From elegant studio portraits to relaxed, natural moments, my wardrobe offers plenty of beautiful possibilities.
Formal Maternity Gowns
Beautiful flowing gowns, fitted silhouettes and statement pieces designed to celebrate your bump.
Perfect for timeless studio portraits and a more glamorous, editorial look.
Lifestyle Dresses
Soft knits, fitted dresses and comfortable neutral pieces create a more natural, intimate feel.
These work beautifully in my lifestyle studio setting for relaxed and meaningful maternity portraits.
Colours & Textures
Cream, beige, camel, brown and soft neutral tones are beautiful choices for maternity photography.
Different fabrics, textures and flowing materials create variety while keeping the attention on you and your bump.
You don't need to know what suits you before you arrive. I'll help you find the pieces that make you feel beautiful.
Your Wardrobe Questions, Answered
A few things you might be wondering before your maternity session.
Do I need to bring my own maternity outfits?
Not at all. My client wardrobe is available for you to use during your session. You're also very welcome to bring a favourite dress or something special of your own.
Can I wear more than one outfit?
Absolutely. The number of gown changes depends on your chosen maternity collection. I can help you select a variety of looks, from elegant and dramatic to soft and natural.
What sizes are available?
Many of my maternity gowns feature stretch fabrics, adjustable designs or open styles that suit a range of body shapes and sizes. I'll help you choose from the pieces that fit comfortably and photograph beautifully.
How do I choose which gowns to wear?
You don't need to make every decision beforehand. At the beginning of your session, I'll guide you through the wardrobe and help select pieces that complement your style, the backdrops and the overall look you'd love.
What should my partner or children wear?
I recommend coordinating rather than matching exactly. Simple shirts, neutral knits, denim and earthy colours usually work beautifully alongside the maternity wardrobe. I'm happy to offer guidance before your session.
Are different outfits suitable for studio, lifestyle and outdoor photographs?
Yes. Structured gowns and dramatic flowing fabrics are lovely for studio portraits, while soft knits and fitted dresses work beautifully for lifestyle photography.
For outdoor maternity photographs, I often recommend flowing fabrics that move naturally and complement the surroundings. Outdoor photography is available with my Deluxe Collection.
A Closer Look at My Maternity Wardrobe
Sometimes it's easier to picture your maternity session when you can see the wardrobe and the beautiful portraits it can help create. Here's a little glimpse behind the scenes, along with some of the different looks I've photographed in my studio.
You Don't Need to Have Everything Figured Out Before Your Session
You don't need a wardrobe full of maternity outfits, modelling experience or a clear idea of how you'd like to pose.
That's what I'm here for. I'll help you choose your gowns, guide you through every pose and create beautiful portraits that celebrate this special chapter of your life.
All you need to do is arrive, relax and enjoy the experience.
