What to Wear for Maternity Photos That Feel Effortless and Elegant in Coral Springs & Beyond

What to Wear for Maternity Photos That Feel Effortless and Elegant in Coral Springs & Beyond

You're glowing, you're growing, and you're preparing to meet the love of your life—so now’s the perfect time to plan your maternity photos.

But the question every mama-to-be asks is:“What should I wear for my maternity photos?”

At Jennifer Ubinas Photography, we help women across South Florida feel confident, stylish, and comfortable during their maternity photoshoots. Here’s your go-to wardrobe guide that keeps things simple, elegant, and completely you.

👗 1. Choose Flowing Fabrics That Flatter

Dresses that move with the breeze, wrap softly around your bump, and create movement photograph beautifully—especially outdoors or in our studio’s natural-light setups.

Top picks:

• Chiffon maxi dresses

• Stretchy jersey gowns with a slit

• Off-the-shoulder flowy gowns

• Lace overlay dresses for a romantic look

Why it works:

• Shows off your shape without clinging too tight

• Gives variety in poses and motion

• Softens the overall look in camera

🌿 2. Stick to a Soft, Neutral Color Palette

We always recommend mamas wear tones that are earthy, romantic, and timeless. These colors photograph beautifully across all South Florida backdrops—whether it’s beachy, botanical, or studio-based.

Top color picks:

• Cream, taupe, blush, and soft olive

• Muted peach, dusty rose, and warm beige

• Greys, soft whites, or classic black (yes, black can be elegant!)

Bonus: These colors coordinate perfectly with your partner or children if they’re joining the shoot.

🧥 3. Add Texture—Not Prints

Instead of bold patterns or logos, opt for textured pieces that add visual interest without taking the attention away from your baby bump.

Try:

• Lace details

• Knits or ribbed cotton

• Tulle overlays

• Silk or satin draping

Photographing in Coral Springs, Coconut Creek, or Delray Beach? These textures pop against Florida’s greenery or white sands.

🩶 4. Keep It Comfortable & True to You

The most important rule? You should feel like yourself.If you feel awkward, it’ll show. If you feel stunning, we’ll capture it.

Options for mamas who want less formality:

• Fitted bodysuits with robes

• Casual jeans + bralette combos

• Minimalist studio looks with natural makeup

• Bare belly with button-down shirt for a lifestyle vibe

At Jennifer Ubinas Photography, we provide styling guidance, a full client wardrobe, and posing direction so you feel confident every step of the way.
