We love photos but maternity shots have to be at the top of the list of cute photo taking opportunities!
It’s a cute way to not only announce your little ones arrival, but a fun way to get the rest of the family excited about the new brother or sister.
Maternity Photoshoot Ideas

If you are expecting, or know some one who is, be sure to scroll through and choose your favorite maternity session.
Maternity Picture Ideas
Announcement Photo
Are you waiting to either find out the gender of your little one OR not announcing it till their big day?? This is a cute maternity announcement photo.
Maternity Shoot Ideas
What a cute belly idea – this would be perfect photo for the baby-book. What a great way to show off your growing little one to the whole family.
Whimsical Maternity Photograph
If you already have kids, try to capture those last moments before your new child arrives. Love how this mom took a pregnancy shot of her with her son mere days before his sibling arrived. Big brother got to spend some special time with his mom. What a special moment the professional photographer was able to capture.
Heart Hands
Offer a sneak peak or a window into the womb. I love the “heart” hands with a recent sonogram over the belly in this mommy-and-me-shot. This is such a good idea and a simple one that still creates a beautiful maternity photo session. It’s a simple pose, but a great option for those who want something a little more simple.
Pregnancy Countdown
Let’s be honest, the pregnancy countdown begins the moment you see those tiny lines on a pregnancy test. These tally marks on the belly are a tangible way to take a maternity photoshoot capturing that countdown in a memorable (and adorable) way! What a creative idea.
Sports Photo
Do you and your hubby have a favorite sport? This couple enjoys, you got it, Baseball. Use paint in a maternity photo to decorate the belly to commemorate the sport your future kiddo will grow up loving as much as you do! The best part is you are able to include your husband in the fun.
Funny Maternity Photos
I make Humans. A little bit sassy, this idea for baby bump photos had us laughing! This is the best thing!

In our technology age, one of the cutest pregnancy picture ideas we’ve come across is the loading sign. You can get it painted on your belly for a fun photo shoot or even grab the shirt (This post contains affiliate links) for everyday laughs. I love nerdy maternity photo shoot ideas and you don’t tend to see too many.
Pregnancy Photo Ideas
Pose For The Photo
Yes. We’re in love with shadows, but this maternity selfie is one of the most gorgeous maternity poses! Even if you are not able to hire a professional maternity photographer, this is one you can do yourself that will still preserve this wonderful time in your life as you wait for the arrival of your newborn.
Mom and Dad Pregnancy Photos
A shadow of what is to come, we are in love with these pregnancy photos that involve the dad casting a heart shaped shadow of the mom’s belly. Love, life and laughter all coming so soon as a family grows together in love. The artistic aspect of these maternity photos totally make us swoon!
How Big Is My Baby?
We all tracked our pregnancy with those charts “your child is not the size of a walnut” and later “they are the size of a small grapefruit”. What a great idea – take a photo along with the food that is representing the size of your baby as they are growing. It is a fun week-by-week pregnancy photo idea. This is especially cute and special if this is your first baby. It is a way expectant mothers can remember the experience.
Weird Food Cravings During Pregnancy
You can even make your own chalkboard to track your pregnancy week by week. Write baby’s size on the board, your pregnancy cravings and other symptoms. It will be a fun way to do pregnancy photos and document your pregnancy without forgetting a thing! What better way to remember some of the funnier moments of pregnancy.
Cute Baby Announcements
One of the most fun baby announcements is revealing the name! We loved the idea to use children’s blocks to spell out the child’s name over mom’s belly. What a sweet reveal through photos to share with friends and family!
Best Friend Baby Bumps
If you and a friend are pregnant at the same time, baby bump photos together are basically a requirement. Although the possibilities are endless this shot of mommy best friends and baby best friends definitely melted our hearts! This would make for a very special family portrait for the family album. Best friends are still family.

Maternity Photo Ideas
Get silly. Grab some paint and show your little one how much they mean to you with a big red heart! Paint always makes photo shoots more fun! This is cute for dad to do or even for an older sibling to do as well. Definitely best for one of your outdoor sessions.
Sonogram Photo
Put the sonogram into your pocket. What a cute way to feature your belly in silhouette along with the image (sonogram) that you look at *so* many times throughout the day! Cute maternity photo shoot. This maternity photography session is simple, but would look great on social media like Instagram. What a fun idea!
Funny Maternity Pictures With Husband
SO goofy! If you have a partner who loves to laugh at himself, go for it! Document all of the bellies in your household. I love the sympathetic pregnancy shots. This is the perfect time to get silly together. He really did a great pose in the back ground.
Funny Maternity Photos
How babies are made. It’s the age old question “where do babies come from”. According to this family they come from a lot of air! This is one adorable way to announce your pregnancy and document it until your little one arrives!
Baby Booties
You can use your maternity photos to reveal your kiddo’s gender. These baby booties are just adorable! This would be especially cute if you use the booties from your first child or this would be the ideal time to buy new ones. Who doesn’t love baby shopping! Plus, have you seen how cute a pair of baby shoes are?
