Wexford, PA Matnerity photography CAPTURING THE SWEET STAGE OF ANTICIPATION
THE MATERNITY EXPERIENCE
My goal is for you to feel taken care of from the moment you inquire to the moment you see your favorite photo hanging on the wall.
My job is to make this process effortless, calm, and honestly....fun.
Here’s what working together looks like:
01. Book Your Date
You’ll reach out with your due date, and we’ll choose a session window that feels comfortable and realistic. I’ll send over everything you need to feel confident, prepared, and excited for what’s ahead. The best time to book your maternity session is between 28 weeks and 34 weeks. Your belly is nice and round but you aren't too uncomfortable yet.
02. Get Prepped (Without the Stress)
You’ll receive a simple planning and wardrobe guide, plus personal outfit support if you want it. No overthinking. No pressure. Just guidance that makes getting ready feel easy.
03. Relax. I’ve Got You.
Whether you’re feeling energized or completely exhausted, I work at your pace. I’ll gently guide you through natural movements and poses so nothing feels stiff or forced—and you never have to “perform” for the camera.
04. Hold Onto This Season
You’ll receive a gallery filled with emotion, connection, and quiet strength. Images that reflect this chapter of motherhood—and can be turned into timeless artwork for your home.

"Shayna made me feel comfortable and at ease from the moment I arrived, guided me naturally through the session, and captured the love I already feel for my baby so beautifully. I would hire her again in a heartbeat." ~Ms. Savannah
The ideal time for maternity photos is typically between 28 and 34 weeks. During this window, your belly is beautifully round, but you’re usually still feeling comfortable and able to move with ease.
For second-time moms, scheduling a little earlier often works best, since bodies tend to show sooner and energy can shift more quickly.
Be sure to book your photographer early, to make sure you get the date you want.
WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY SESSION?
Don’t worry—I’ll help you with this. Once you’re booked, you’ll receive a simple wardrobe guide along with personalized support if you want it.
In general, flowy dresses photograph beautifully and highlight your belly in a soft, timeless way. Neutral and light tones tend to work best, and I’ll help you choose something that feels like you. If you prefer a more casual look, jeans paired with a simple top or bra can also be a beautiful option.
The goal is for you to feel comfortable, confident, and like yourself—nothing forced or overdone.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Your maternity session can take place outdoors at a park, in your home, or in the studio—it all depends on the look and feel you’re drawn to.
We’ll talk through your vision, your comfort level, and what feels right for this season, and I’ll help guide you toward the location that best fits you.
There’s no wrong choice—just what feels most like you.
what location should i choose?
This is so common—and nothing to worry about.
I work with kids all the time and follow their lead rather than forcing anything.
Sessions are relaxed, playful, and pressure-free, which helps children warm up naturally.
Some of the most meaningful images come from those in-between moments, and I’ll guide things gently so everyone feels comfortable.
What if my child doesn't cooperate?
Yes, I do! I’m happy to travel for your maternity session. Locations within an hour are included, and for anything beyond that, a small travel fee may apply.
Just let me know what you’re envisioning and we’ll go over the details together.
do you travel?
The best way to begin is by filling out my contact form.
I’ll be in touch within 24 hours, Monday–Friday, with all the details and next steps.
From there, I’ll guide you through everything so the process feels easy and stress-free.
How do I book A maternity session?
To officially secure your session date, a signed contract and a non-refundable retainer are required.
