What to wear for maternity photoshoot in Shreveport–Bossier is one of the most common questions I get from expecting mamas. And I totally get it—your body is changing, and you want to feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable all at once.
The good news? If you’re booking your maternity session with me here in the Shreveport–Bossier area, you don’t have to stress over wardrobe at all.
I’ve curated a client closet full of gorgeous, bump-friendly dresses that photograph beautifully. These pieces flatter every stage of pregnancy and make styling super simple.
Whether you’re dreaming of an outdoor session in Benton or a cozy indoor vibe in Shreveport, I’ve got the perfect look ready for you.

In maternity photography, movement is everything. That’s why I always recommend flowy, floor-length dresses that catch the breeze and soften every pose.
These dresses allow you to move freely, sit comfortably, and feel elegant no matter what trimester you’re in.

My client wardrobe includes neutral and earthy tones that look amazing in every season and location across Shreveport–Bossier.
Want to bring your own outfit instead? I love when clients wear gowns from brands like Baltic Born and Worth Collective. Their pieces are bump-friendly and photograph beautifully! We have a wide variety of these brands in our studio for mamas to wear.
If you’re unsure what colors to wear, here’s a quick cheat sheet based on season and natural light:
Spring in Shreveport: Soft pastels like blush, sage, baby blue, and ivory
Summer in Bossier City: Light neutrals, cream tones, terracotta, or dusty rose
Fall in Benton: Mustard, rust, forest green, taupe, and burnt orange
Winter indoors: Cool neutrals like dove gray, oatmeal, deep plum, or classic black
These palettes photograph beautifully and make sure the focus stays on you—your glow, your joy, and the sweet season you’re in.

Bringing your partner or kiddos to the shoot? Love that.
Once you pick your dress from my client closet, I’ll help you coordinate a cohesive look for everyone else. Think of me as your built-in stylist (and hype girl). ✨
We’ll match tones, layer for texture, and keep things effortless—not too matchy-matchy.

Here’s what I help with:
These little details pull your whole session together and elevate the final gallery.
Your maternity photoshoot should feel relaxed and fun.
That’s why I only use wardrobe pieces that are breathable, bump-friendly, and easy to move in. You’ll never feel restricted or uncomfortable.
