Beautiful Gem Photography by Shan
Maternity Photography in Pickering
Elegant, confident portraits celebrating your pregnancy — relaxed, feminine, and styled around you.
Where Sessions Take Place
Three settings, one vision
Maternity sessions take place in my private home studio in Pickering, in a larger reserved studio for a more spacious and elevated indoor setting, or outdoors on location — whichever setting best suits your vision.
Rental studio fees, when applicable, are quoted separately and confirmed before booking.
The Maternity Experience
Made to feel elegant, relaxed, and true to you
Pregnancy is a season of anticipation, transformation, and connection. My maternity sessions are designed to celebrate this chapter with soft, elegant portraits that feel relaxed, feminine, and true to you.
With gentle posing direction, thoughtful styling, and beautiful use of natural light, your session will focus on the connection between you, your baby, and the people you love most.
- Best between 25–36 weeks — while your bump is beautifully round and you are still comfortable posing
- Partner and children welcome — tell me who will be joining when you book, and I'll plan poses for the whole family
- Styling guidance — before your session, including what to wear: fitted dresses and flowing gowns photograph beautifully, and solid colours in soft neutrals, pastels or jewel tones work best
- Studio wardrobe where available — maternity gowns are provided in the studio, and selected studio wardrobe pieces are included in the collection where available
- Indoor and outdoor options — my private home studio, a larger reserved studio, or outdoors on location
- Pairs beautifully with a newborn session — book ahead to secure your dates for both chapters
My maternity sessions include: professional editing and retouching of your photos, maternity gowns, an online gallery to share with friends and family, and styling advice for your session.
The Maternity Collection is $650, including 15 hand-edited digital images, with additional images purchasable after viewing your gallery. See the maternity collection →
