Many of my clients want to show off their belly in a discreet way for their maternity session images. My studio wardrobe has several split front gowns available to accomplish this, and we will talk about what your vision is and how much you want showing. Not every pregnant woman wants her legs to show, or wants her entire belly to show. There are lots of things we can do in terms of draping to achieve the vision you have for your images. If you have stretch marks or a scar from a navel ring that you feel self conscious about, these are things that can be removed in the editing process if you so desire.
I also have many clients who want more of a budoir feel for their images and wear a chemise, robe, or just a bra and panties. I do not post more revealing images online on my portfolio or social media in the interest of privacy and discretion.
Don't want any bare belly photos? That's totally okay too! Your comfort and vision is what I honor. The beauty of the split front dresses are that they can also be worn closed... and the studio wardrobe has many, many other options where no bare belly is shown.
