FAQs

WHERE IS YOUR STUDIO LOCATED

Our studio is conveniently located on 1000 Parker Street, Suite 304 Vancouver, BC, easily reachable both by car and public transportation. If you are arriving by car, there is street parking around the building. 

HOW SOON SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY SESSION?

It’s always a good idea to schedule your photoshoot as early as possible. While we occasionally accommodate last-minute requests, we recommend booking 8-10 weeks in advance. If you’re hoping for a weekend appointment, be sure to secure your date early, as Saturdays-Sundays tend to fill up fast!

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO DO A PREGNANCY PHOTO SHOOT?


The ideal time for a maternity photoshoot is between 27 and 33 weeks of pregnancy. However, the timing can vary for each woman. We recommend not waiting too long, as you can never predict exactly when your little one will decide to arrive!

DO YOU PROVIDE DRESSES/SUITS/FABRICS?

Maternity session should be stress-free and all about celebrating you! That’s why I offer a beautifully curated wardrobe with a variety of styles to choose from, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. From flowing gowns to chic fitted pieces and Italian silk fabrics, there’s something perfect for every mom-to-be. This way, you can walk in, relax, and enjoy the experience — with outfits that make you look and feel amazing.

CAN MY PARTNER OR MY CHILD BE IN THE PICTURES?

Of course! Your husband is more than welcome to join you for a few couple's pictures during the session. If you have older children, we’d be happy to take some family photos to celebrate this special moment in your life! If you’re bringing your child or children, we kindly suggest bringing someone along to help keep them entertained.

HOW DO I GET READY FOR THE PHOTO SHOOT?  

- Use moisturizer for your body for a few days, especially if your photo-shoot includes some nude or semi-nude photos.
-Get a manicure and a pedicure a day or two in advance.
-Don't wear tight underwear and clothing on the day of the session to prevent marks on your skin.
-Do not travel to the studio in the clothes in which you will be shooting. Wrinkles can ruin your look in the photographs.

While our focus is on achieving a natural look, we’ll tailor the edits to match your preferences perfectly.

DO I HAVE TO BE NUDE FOR MATERNITY SESSION?

Not at all! Every maternity session is completely personalized to reflect your preferences and comfort level. Some clients opt for elegant and artistic nude portraits or draped fabrics, while others choose to stay fully clothed. The choice is entirely yours!
