Maternity Boudoir Outfits for an Unforgettable Shoot - St. Charles MO Maternity Photographer

Celebrating your pregnancy with a maternity boudoir photoshoot can be a beautiful way to capture this special time. Choosing the right outfits plays a crucial role in creating timeless and elegant photographs that you will cherish forever.


I recently had my own maternity shoot at Beauty in Boudoir, so I have some fresh maternity boudoir outfit ideas to share with you!


Whether you're looking for comfort, elegance, or a hint of allure, here's some inspiration for your maternity boudoir session.


Flowing Maternity Dresses

Maternity dresses are a stunning choice for boudoir photoshoots, offering a touch of femininity and comfort. Opt for dresses that accentuate your baby bump beautifully, either with a slit that will show your belly or a form-fitting silhouette.

Flowing fabrics like chiffon or silk can add a touch of ethereal charm to your photos.

Consider soft pastel shades or classic neutrals like ivory or blush for a timeless appeal. This dress is from the Beauty in Boudoir client closet and looks gorgeous on camera!


Cozy Cardigans or Sweaters

For a cozy and intimate vibe, layering with a cardigan or sweater can add warmth and texture to your photos. Choose a lightweight, oversized knit that you can elegantly drape over your shoulders or gently wrap around your belly.

Soft, chunky knits in neutral tones such as gray, cream, or soft lavender can create a snug and inviting atmosphere.


Unbuttoned Jeans

Embrace a casual yet chic look with unbuttoned maternity jeans. This style is perfect for capturing a relaxed and natural feel during your photoshoot.

Pair them with a lace bralette or a form-fitting camisole to enhance your silhouette.

I also brought flowers to include in my shoot, and they looked beautiful with my jeans.


Sheer or Form-Fitting Clothing

As I mentioned earlier, form-fitting dresses or other clothing is great for accentuating your bump in your maternity boudoir photos. For a subtly seductive touch, sheer fabrics are also a great touch.

Delicate lace or mesh tops or dresses can add a romantic and whimsical element to your maternity boudoir photos. This was another pick from the Beauty in Boudoir client closet!


Tips for Choosing Your Maternity Boudoir Outfits

Here are a few other pointers I would suggest when picking outfits for your maternity shoot:

  • Comfort is Key: Prioritize comfort to ensure you feel relaxed and confident during your photoshoot.

  • Personal Style: Select outfits that reflect your personal style and make you feel beautiful.

  • Accessorize Thoughtfully: Consider adding delicate jewelry, such as earrings or a necklace, to complete your look.

  • Consult with Your Photographer: Your photographer can offer valuable insights and suggestions based on their expertise.
