Timeless Seattle Studio Maternity Photography
If you’re considering an indoor maternity photoshoot, you’re in the right place. In this post, you’ll find all the details, along with plenty of studio maternity photos to give you an idea of what to expect and help plan your session.
Last Update: December 3, 2024 • Maternity
Welcome to the cozy downtown Seattle studio—the perfect setting for your indoor maternity session. Featuring an exposed brick wall, floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light, and white floors, this studio offers a unique and timeless backdrop for your maternity photos.
The studio setting provides more privacy than an outdoor session, helping you feel more at ease during the photoshoot, especially for exposed belly shots. It’s also convenient for multiple outfit changes to create different looks.
An indoor photoshoot is a great option during rainy Seattle winters and provides an excellent alternative to an outdoor session when the weather could be unpredictable.
If this is how you envision documenting your pregnancy, you are in the right place. Let’s dive in.

Sample Maternity Studio Deluxe Session with Just the Couple
I offer my studio maternity session in two options: Deluxe (full) or Mini (half). The key difference is the length of the session and the number of photos included (more on that in the pricing section below).
The Deluxe Session is a good option if you want a larger variety of photos and have more time for outfit changes to create more looks.
Here are sample photos from several Deluxe Sessions.
In Client’s Words:
“My husband and I absolutely loved our experience with Lana! We worked with Lana for a Deluxe Maternity Shoot and are thrilled with the results. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is quite a feat), she was clear in her instruction and guidance, and she made it a very fun environment overall. The quality of images is unmatched, and we hope to have the opportunity to work with Lana again in the future as the little one grows!” –Shannon S.
Sample Maternity Studio Deluxe Session with a Sibling
The Deluxe Session is also a great option if you have children joining. Here are sample photos from a Deluxe Maternity Session with a sibling.
Sample Maternity Studio Mini-Session
The Maternity Mini-Session is great if you want a quicker or more affordable session. Here are sample photos from several Maternity Mini-Sessions.
FAQs
When is the best time to have a maternity session?
The ideal time for your maternity shoot is when you are between 28 and 32 weeks pregnant. During this period, most women will have their bumps showing while still being able to move around comfortably. However, every woman is different, and I am happy to work around your schedule. I recommend booking a month in advance to give you time to prepare.
We are not good at taking pictures; will you guide us?
I will direct and guide you the entire time, so you don’t have to worry about posing or feeling awkward.
What is the best way to dress for our session?
After completing your booking, I will email you prep info and tips, including the outfit inspiration guide and online styling service, to help you look your best for the session.
When and how will I get my images?
You will receive your online proof gallery within four days after your session. Seven days after you submit your selections, your hand-edited images will be delivered via a separate online gallery.
Do you offer newborn photography?
I’m glad you asked. I specialize in maternity and newborn photography. You can learn more about my newborn photography services here. (I also offer money-saving packages if you book maternity and newborn sessions with me.)
