Choosing A Maternity Photographer

Jun 29 2025 | By: Emma Hutch Photography

How To Choose Your Maternity Photographer Melbourne

Choosing a Maternity Photographer can be a daunting experience, here's a few tips to keep in mind when comparing photographers:
 
  • Maternity Gowns: Does your photographer provide maternity dresses for you to wear during your session? This could save you hundreds of dollars if they do. We have a beautiful variety of maternity gowns to choose from.
  • Experience: 
    Look for photographers with experience in maternity and newborn photography. We have 13 years experience capturing growing families. View their galleries to see their body of work.
  • Style: 
    Consider photographers whose style aligns with your vision, whether it's natural, artistic, outdoors or studio-based. 
  •  Personal Connection: Choose someone you feel comfortable with, as the photoshoot should be a relaxed and enjoyable experience. 
  • Timing: The best time for a maternity photoshoot is typically between 28 and 36 weeks of pregnancy, when the baby bump is well-defined but you still have energy. 
  • Turn Around Time of Your Images: No-one wants to wait months to see their images, Emma Hutch Photography client images are ready to view 1-2 weeks after the session is held.
  •  Location: Discuss potential locations with the photographer, whether it's a studio, an outdoor setting in Melbourne or the Yarra Valley, or another location that holds special meaning for you. Some photographers like Emma Hutch Photography offer reschedules or their studio as a back-up in case of inclement weather. 
  •  Pricing: Inquire about session fees and collection prices to understand the overall cost. Emma Hutch Photography offers combined discounts on bookings of both maternity and newborn sessions.
