How far along were you when you did maternity photos (if you did them)? Not sure when the best time is for optimizing bump vs fatigue but figured I should probably start looking in to this haha!
@spookylyn, totally fair! I’m holding out hope my mom will be able to come and do them (she’s a photographer), but not sure if she’ll be able to fly in and get the timing right haha. 🤞
@spookylyn, I ended up booking something for next week! Thanks for the names though, I was worried with it being wedding season and everything. I will have to start figuring out the newborn ones soon too I guess! 🤣 Haha.
Yeah, Canadian weather man! With my luck it’ll probably start snowing when my face resembles a pie 😂
So sorry you won’t be able to make the trip to see Mom. It would’ve been so memorable if she got the chance to take the pics. Hopefully, she gets to take newborn or family pics soon after the birth so she’ll have her moment.
In the meantime, start looking for reputable photographers who won’t break the bank! I’ve seen the price list for sessions in Edmonton 😳...my IPhone and some filters might come in handy 😂
@aliciaandmike, good to know! And snow pictures are so beautiful, totally get it! Makes it even harder to plan with the weather added in though! 😂
I want to get some done professionally- my mom is a photographer and was going to do them when I went back home to visit (other side of the country) so I didn’t book any. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like we’re going to get the chance to go home during my pregnancy after all, so now I’m trying to book them in quickly and worried if I’ll be able to get them done in time!
I’m contemplating scheduling mine for my 34th week, however, I’d love some winter pics so the stubborn side of me wants to wait until it starts snowing 😩! Based on the suggestions I’ve read on the WTE app you start swelling around week 35/36 so you should aim to do them before. Are you getting them professionally done?
I did mine around 33 weeks although they weren't professionally done. My mom came to visit so we just went to a nice park and she took some photos for us.
