What to Wear for a Maternity Session (Chicago Edition)

Prioritize Comfort

Soft fabrics that move with you — like linen, cotton, or knit — look and feel best. Avoid anything too tight or fussy.

Choose Soft, Neutral Colors

Creams, earthy tones, pastels, and muted blues photograph beautifully and work in both indoor and outdoor Chicago settings.

Go for Texture, Not Patterns

Knit, lace, and layered materials add depth. Skip bold prints and logos — they can distract from your expression and connection.

Long Dresses Work Magic

A flowy dress that moves with the breeze highlights your bump in a soft, timeless way. Bring one or two options, and I’ll help you decide.

Shoes Optional

At home? Barefoot is lovely. Outdoors? Stick to something simple and neutral.
