When it comes to maternity photo shoots, I have lots of options for you to choose from and one of those is this little bed set up.

I actually have two different headboards for you to select from – this is the ‘fancier’ one and I think it works just beautifully for relaxed maternity photos with a more lifestyle feel.

Maternity Photo Shoot on a Bed

One of the most popular setups for a maternity photo shoot is the studio bed. It offers a beautifully relaxed and intimate backdrop, perfect for capturing the tender and natural side of your pregnancy journey. The cosy and inviting bed setup creates a soft, homely feel while still maintaining the elegance of a professional studio environment.

For these sessions, I keep the setting simple and neutral to ensure the focus remains on you and your growing bump. The bed can be styled with luxurious throws, soft cushions, or kept minimal, depending on your preferences. This versatility allows us to tailor the session to your personal taste and the vibe you want to convey in your images.

Why Choose the Bed Setup?

The studio bed setup is ideal if you’re looking to include softer poses and more casual, natural moments in your maternity gallery. It also works beautifully for photos that feature intimate interactions, whether you’re including your partner, your older children, or even showcasing your connection with your baby bump.

I guide you throughout the session to help you find comfortable, flattering poses that highlight your unique beauty. Whether it’s sitting up, lying back, or gently leaning to frame your silhouette, the bed setup offers a variety of options to showcase your pregnancy glow.

Incorporating Your Style

To personalise your maternity photos further, you can bring in your own accessories or outfits that complement the setting. Flowing dresses, soft knitwear, or even an oversized shirt can look stunning in this setup. I also have a range of studio wardrobe options if you’d prefer to borrow something during your session.

This setup allows us to blend warmth and elegance effortlessly, creating timeless images that you’ll treasure for years to come.

Maternity Photography in East Grinstead

My maternity sessions are very flexible affairs with my studio booked for an hour so we have plenty of time to create a really varied image gallery. You’re invited to select up to three backdrops and include up to three outfit changes so you can mix and match styles to create the perfect set of pregnancy memories.

I recommend booking your session between 28-36 weeks so you’re still comfortable and you’re also welcome to borrow any of my gorgeous maternity photo shoot dresses while you’re in the studio.  You select your pictures and order any more that you would like directly from your online gallery, there’s no sales or viewing session to attend.
