I recommend scheduling your maternity photoshoot between 32 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. During this time, your bump is generally beautifully defined, while you're still likely to feel comfortable enough to move and enjoy the experience.

Every pregnancy is different, so if you're expecting multiples or have specific circumstances, we can discuss the best timing for you.

I recommend getting in touch during your second trimester to secure your preferred date. I take on a limited number of sessions each month to ensure every mother receives a considered and personalised experience.

If you're further along in your pregnancy, please still reach out. I'll always do my best to accommodate you where availability allows.

You'll have full access to my curated Client Wardrobe, featuring a selection of beautiful gowns, flowing fabrics and pieces chosen specifically for maternity photography.

I'll also provide styling guidance before your session to help you select outfits that complement your vision, location and personal style. Whether you prefer something soft and minimal or more bold and editorial, we'll create a look that feels like you.

I primarily photograph maternity sessions at beautiful beaches across the Gold Coast, and down to Byron Bay. I also offer photoshoots in hinterland settings, photography studios and my private home studio in Bonogin.

We'll discuss the look and feel you're drawn to and choose a location from my Location Guide that complements your vision.

As many of my maternity sessions take place outdoors, weather is something we carefully consider. If conditions aren't suitable for your session, we'll work together to arrange an alternative date.

I keep a close eye on the forecast in the lead-up to your session and will always prioritise creating the best possible conditions for your experience and photographs.

Absolutely. Your maternity session can be centred entirely around you, or include your partner and children for a collection of photographs together.

We can create a beautiful balance of individual portraits and more intimate moments with your family, celebrating this next chapter together.

Of course. You don't need any previous experience in front of the camera, and you certainly don't need to know how to pose.

I'll gently guide you throughout the session, using natural movement and easy prompts to help you feel comfortable and confident. My approach is warm and relaxed, allowing you to settle into the experience while I take care of creating the photographs.

Your finished gallery will be delivered within 3-4 weeks of your session. Each photograph is individually selected and hand-edited with care to ensure the final collection reflects the artistic style and quality of Lucy Rose Photography.

I'd love to hear from you! Simply complete the enquiry form on my website with your expected due date and a little about the experience you're envisioning.

I'll be in touch with further information about availability, and the next steps to secure your session. From there, we'll begin planning a maternity experience that brings your vision to life.

Absolutely. I understand that investing in beautiful maternity artwork is a considered decision, so I offer flexible payment options to help make the experience accessible. Payment can be arranged in instalments, with the remaining balance required before your session.
