How to Pose A Maternity Photoshoot: Flower Field
Planning a maternity photoshoot in a vibrant flower field?
Posing for these precious moments is an essential art that can beautifully capture the essence of this special time.
From the subtle positioning of the model to incorporating natural movements and light, these simple yet impactful guidance tips will help you create stunning and memorable images amongst a beautiful backdrop.
Placing the Model into Position: Begin by finding a spot where the flowers frame you well with plenty of light.
Starting Off Simple with Hand Over Bump: Embrace the simplicity of placing your hand gently over your bump, connecting mum and baby.
Hand Under Bump to Create More Shape: Another take on a simple pose, this subtle change can add a beautiful shape to your silhouette.
Profile Look: Capture the profile of your gorgeous baby bump against the flower field.
Adding Movement to the Dress: Letting the fabric flow and sway, creating a sense of grace and lightness in each shot.
Show Off the Dress/Outfit's Design in Your Pose: Your outfit is not just clothing; it's a work of art. Showcase the design, pattern, and colours by using them to accentuate your pose. Let your attire help to tell a story as well as the location.
Adding Arms to Create Shape and Variety: Experiment with different arm placements to create shape and variety in your images. From framing your bump to reaching out to the flowers, each gesture adds depth and emotion to your photos.
Remember the Light Source: Be mindful of where the light falls to avoid shadows on your face. Let the sunshine illuminate your features for a soft look.
“This was an amazing experience taking part in my first photo shoot and whilst being pregnant too.
Emma’s vision of the shoot did not disappoint and the photos have turned out magical and something I will cherish forever.
Emma made me feel so at ease and guided me through the whole experience which really helped with it being my first time.
I am so happy I have these photos to look back on from my pregnancy. Thank you so much!” - T
