Frequently Asked Questions
Where in Phoenix is your studio?
We are actually located just outside of Phoenix (the city) in Tempe & Mesa! We serve clients all over the Phoenix, Gilbert, Scottsdale, Tempe, and Mesa area! Our studio is private, cozy, and just perfect for any maternity session!
When should I book my Phoenix maternity session?
We recommend scheduling your session between 26–32 weeks so that your bump is showing and you’re still comfortable to shoot for a few hours.
Do you photograph maternity sessions on weekends?
Yes, weekend sessions are available upon request with only 2 weekends available per month. We recommend booking at least 4 weeks in advance, especially if you’re due in the fall or spring, our busiest seasons for maternity photography in Phoenix.
Can I include my partner or other children in the session?
Absolutely. This is your maternity session and we welcome spouses, partners, and kiddos to be part of it. We’ll guide the posing to make sure everyone looks their best.

What should I wear for maternity photos?
We will go over the full plan on what to wear based on your overall vision! But we alwasy recommend an outfit that shows of your pregnancy bump!
Do you provide dresses or other outfits?
Yes! We offer a studio closet with a variety of different dresses and outfits. We can also make dresses with other fabrics and clamps! We love creating dresses that way!
I’m plus-size / petite / tall...will the outfits fit me?
Yes! We style based on you, not a one-size-fits-all rack. During your planning consult, we’ll go over body types, comfort zones, and what styles flatter your bump best. Our goal is to help you look (and feel) amazing, regardless of size.
Do you retouch the images?
Yes. Every image you purchase is professionally retouched by hand with skin smoothing, flyaway cleanup, and polish while keeping you looking like you. We also go over any specific requests during your image selection.
Can I do both studio and outdoor photos?
Most of our phoenix maternity sessions are studio-based, but if you want a hybrid session, we can chat about adding an outdoor look nearby. Just mention it during your consultation! Just keep in mind that with outdoor sessions, the best lighting is around sunset or sunrise, so we’d have to plan the outdoor part around that time!
What’s the difference between booking now and waiting until later in my pregnancy?
Booking earlier guarantees we can schedule your session during that 26–32 week sweet spot—when your bump is beautifully round but you’re still comfortable moving and posing. Plus, earlier bookings get first dibs on weekend dates!
How much does it cost?
The session fee is $990. Most clients invest over $1690-3500 on their image collections and add on wall art. You only purchase what you love, and we offer payment plans.
How do I book you?
It’s super easy! Contact us and we’ll set up a Zoom chat to see if we are the right fit for your vision. You will book right at the end of the call by paying the retainer to hold a date in our calendar.
