Timing your maternity photos is key to capturing your pregnancy in the best way possible. Booking too early or too late can affect how your photos turn out.

Most professional Annapolis and Baltimore maternity photographers recommend scheduling your session between 28 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. Here’s why:

•Baby bump is beautifully visible: Around 28–34 weeks, your belly is round and glowing, perfect for maternity portraits.

•You’ll feel more comfortable: Late pregnancy can be physically challenging, so early third trimester is ideal.

•Flexibility for outdoor or indoor sessions: Scheduling during this window allows you to plan for beautiful seasonal light, whether you choose outdoor maternity photos in Annapolis or Baltimore or an elegant indoor studio session.
