Outdoor maternity session

When you start looking for a Maternity photographer, there are some specific questions you should ask. Before you make your final decision, you need to know you will be getting what you want out of your maternity photoshoot.

It doesn’t matter if you want an outdoor maternity photoshoot in the Bay Area or you prefer a shoot inside your home, the right photographer makes a difference. Let’s look at some of the most important questions to ask before you hire a maternity photographer.

5 Top Questions for Your Maternity Photographer

1. What is the total cost and what does it include?

Every photographer is a bit different when it comes to their fees. Some charge session fees, others charge for pictures, and some even offer packages with digital images included.

Before you book your maternity photographer, make sure you know what the cost will be and what it includes. When you choose to book a maternity photoshoot with Leigh Ann Pincus Photography, you can choose from a variety of packages. Find out more about the packages here.

2. Do you offer any props or wardrobe options?

Some maternity photographers have props and wardrobe items you can use for your shoot. Not all will offer props or wardrobe options. You shouldn’t choose your maternity photographer based on the answer to this question, but it’s still important to ask.

Even if your photographer doesn’t offer props or any wardrobe options, they can offer advice on what you should use. With your photographer’s help, you can not only choose the best props and wardrobe options, but also a great location for your maternity photographer.

3. Will I get editing and retouching?

Most professional photographers will offer editing and retouching for your pictures. However, you should still ask this question to ensure you are getting exactly what you want from your maternity photographer in the Bay Area.

4. Do you offer discounts for multiple photoshoots?

Some photographers will offer a discount if you bundle more than one photoshoot. For example, you can book a maternity and a newborn session and save when you book with us. We provide a bundle discount to ensure you get all the photos you need while pregnant and once your baby is born!

5. How will I view my images after the photoshoot?

It’s common for photographers to offer access to an online image gallery after your photoshoot. This allows you to easily view your pictures, choose the images you like, and place your order for prints and digital images.

While this may not be a make or break type of question, you should certainly know how you will see your images after the maternity photo session. Make sure you ask and find out so that you know what to expect.

Before you choose the right maternity photographer for your photo session, make sure you ask the right questions. It’s a good idea to know what you’re getting before you have your picture taken. This is a once in a lifetime type of thing and you want the best maternity photographer in the Bay Area for your needs.
