What I Recommend Wearing for Winter Maternity Photos

For winter maternity photoshoots in Banff, I recommend:

• Long-sleeve flowy gowns

• Knit or velvet textures

• Neutral tones (cream, beige, soft blush)

• Deep jewel tones (emerald, burgundy, navy)

I always suggest layering with:

• Faux fur shawls

• Long wool coats

• Thermal leggings underneath dresses

• Stylish boots between shots

Don’t worry — I guide you through wardrobe planning so you feel confident and comfortable. All photo sessions include styling assistance to make you feel your most fabulous!
One more thing you REALLY should bring along for your winter maternity photos are hand warmers. If you get cold easily, this will keep your fingers, toes and body warmer so you can enjoy your photo session in Banff without freezing!
