Deciding what to wear to for your maternity session can feel like a daunting task. There are so many different options and trying to figure out what is right for you can be overwhelming. So today I decided to write out my 5 clothing ideas for maternity sessions in hopes that I can make shopping for your session a little easier.
Not sure what to wear for your maternity session? Check out these great tips to help you prepare:
What to Wear for Your Maternity Session
- Remember, the main purpose of this session is to show off your baby bump, so be sure to wear more clingy clothing to your session. It doesn’t necessarily have to be tight, but you want it to be more form fitting so you can see your bump. Just be sure that it’s something you’re comfortable in.

- Maxi dresses and knee length dresses are perfect for any season and are a fan favorite when it comes to maternity sessions. These two styles are the most flattering on any type of baby bump.
- Dress in layers – this will help to give you several clothing ‘looks’ without having to fully change your outfit every time. Some mamas choose to wear a cardigan, loose fitting sweater, or a kimono.
- Dresses with ruching at the sides also help give your bump more definition and are a great option! Ruching allows for more stretch to the fabric and makes any baby bump look perfect.
- Be comfortable! Above all else, your comfort is the most important thing. If you’re uncomfortable, it will show on camera. Find an outfit that feels good and that you know you look good in. This will help you to relax for the best photos. Make sure to try on your dress a day or two before your scheduled session to make sure the fit is still comfortable.
I’m excited to see all the summer baby bumps!
