Why Do A Maternity Shoot?
Because this season doesn't last — in a few short weeks it's gone for good. A maternity shoot isn't about being camera-ready, it's about having real, beautiful proof of the anticipation, the nesting, the last quiet weeks as a family of however-many-you-are-about-to-be. Most moms tell me they didn't think they wanted photos until they saw them — and then they're so glad they have them.

Frequently Asked Questions about Maternity Photography:
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO SCHEDULE A MATERNITY PHOTOSHOOT AROUND DENVER?
The best and most common time to schedule your maternity photoshoot with your spouse, or alone, in the Denver metro area is between 28 and 34 weeks. Most women will start to "pop" around that time, so your photographer will be able to capture the glowing differences about your body which you'll be able to commemorate. Plan ahead, and try to book 1 month in advance before your desired time. If this is your first child, take into consideration that some women go into labor early, so I'd recommend booking your photoshoot close to home and definitely no later than 37 weeks.
WHat Should I wear During My Maternity Photoshoot?
You should wear whatever makes you feel glowy and beautiful. Some garments to include in your shoot, especially if you're considering bringing multiple outfits, would be flowy sleeves, a shirt that opens in the front around your belly, a skirt or jeans that can sit comfortably below your belly, or a stretchy dress that highlights your mid section. Every soon-to-be mom is different! Some gals go the boho direction with loose cottons or chiffon, while other chic mamas may decide on an evening style cocktail dress that makes for a classy vibe.
Should I Include My Partner Or Children In My Maternity Photos?
Absolutely! Maternity sessions with Shipp Snaps can include your partner and/or other children. These moments are about celebrating your growing family, and adding loved ones makes the session even more meaningful. I personally believe your family can bring out a more authentic and less posed version of all of you, so we capture your real emotions about your bundle of joy.
