When Is the Best Time to Book a Maternity Photoshoot in Canberra?
The Ideal Window for Maternity Photos
The sweet spot for maternity photography is 28–34 weeks.
You’ve got a beautiful bump.
You can still move comfortably.
And you’re not in the “everything hurts and I’m done” stage yet.
After 35 weeks, sessions become less predictable — babies drop, swelling happens, energy disappears.
Earlier booking gives you flexibility.
Why You Should Book During Your Second Trimester
Most parents book maternity photography in Canberra during their first to second trimester.
This guarantees:
✔ your preferred date
✔ the season you want
✔ time to plan outfits
✔ zero last-minute stress
Pregnancy moves fast. Suddenly you’re 36 weeks and wondering where the time went.
You Don’t Need to Feel “Photo Ready”
Almost every pregnant parent says:
“I’ll book when I feel better about my body.”
Spoiler: that day never magically arrives.
Maternity photography is not about looking smaller.
It’s about documenting a season that disappears overnight.
Your body is doing something extraordinary. That deserves to be remembered.
Booking Both Maternity + Newborn Together
Many families book maternity and newborn sessions as a bundle.
It means:
✔ consistent style
✔ priority scheduling
✔ one less thing to plan postpartum
