Understanding Maternity Dress Styles 

Empire Waist Dresses 

The empire-style waist is one of the popular picks for maternity photo shoots. This fashion trend's maternity wear incorporates a raised waistline that sits just above the breast and delicately falls around the belly, highlighting the baby bump and providing comfort. 

  • Pros: Highlights the bump without constriction; offers comfort and elegance. 
  • Cons: It might seem too traditional for some modern tastes.

Bohemian Dresses 

Bohemian dresses are a necessity because they offer the relaxed and sophisticated exhilaration that they offer. These dresses can mostly be found in soft and flowing materials that can possibly be decorated with lace, crochet, or floral patterns. 

  • Pros: Perfect for outdoor shoots; versatile for various themes. 
  • Cons: It may overwhelm petite frames if they are too voluminous.
