Maternity Portraits: The Right Time To Photograph
It is ideal to book your maternity photo session around the 32nd week of your pregnancy (7 months), when your belly is beautifully large, but you are still comfortable to move and hold poses. Maternity portraits sessions usually take about one to two hours. We can photograph in our Boca Raton studio, at the beach or any other location. Our maternity photo sessions are very relaxed, never rushed, and are a lot of fun. You will feel like a celebrity during the session!
Lloyd’s Studio offers three different packages for Maternity Portraits.
Just Bellies – one session for the”Belly”
Bellies and Babies – 2 sessions, one for maternity and one for newborn
Baby Treasures – 5 sessions from belly to baby’s first year birthday cake

Clean, Elegant and Fun. I will make you look natural and beautiful.

How much should I plan on investing for my session?
Every client has different needs/wants/wishes therefore every session varies widely. The costs will depend on the products you choose from a wide variety of options. My minimum purchase order is $400. But really, your investment with me isn’t about the money; we want to make sure that we’re the best match for your needs. It’s important to us that our visions, personalities and products all meet your expectations. We’re honored to be able to document so many memorable moments of so many wonderful families and strive to ensure that all our clients walk away with more than they expected.
Do you offer products or do I get them printed myself?
I am full service studio and want to ensure that you have access to professional products to display your memories. Lloyd’s Studio Photography specializes in wall art and family heirloom albums.
How early do I need to book a session?
It is recommended that you schedule a consultation or a session at least 2 months prior to guarantee availability. The agenda books up fast and during the fall season, it generally gets fully booked 3 months prior.
What is a consultation?
A consultation is a meeting where we get to meet before booking a session. This meeting is meant for us both to get to know each other and so that I understand what you like and envision for your session. This helps me create and plan a photo session that is special for YOU. Also, in this consultation we will discuss all the products and investment. I never want you to book a session without having all the details you need. My goal is that you come prepared for your session knowing exactly what to expect.
How do I book a session?
First contact me via the website and I will either call or email you within 24-48 hours to schedule your consultation. When we meet for your consultation we will go over all the details about the session, investment, etc. If you decide to book a session, we can complete the booking form at the consultation or you can complete it from home.
Do you offer weekend sessions?
Yes, however, weekend spots are very limited. I only offer one morning session or afternoon session on Saturdays. Sundays are reserved for family only and if there is an absolute need for a Sunday session, there is an additional $150 charge to your session fee.
Do you travel for sessions?
Yes. I absolutely love going to different places to shoot. If you’d like to have me travel somewhere specific, just contact me and we can go over the details.
