Preparing the house for a home maternity session in Clermont-Ferrand

Living room: windows, lights and backgrounds

Start by decluttering visible surfaces. Quickly put away anything that distracts the eye. Keep two or three personal objects you like. Hold up a mirror to play with reflections. Turn on the lights. Add a warm white or orange LED garland if you like. Move an armchair slightly if the framing improves. Spread a plaid over the armrest to add texture. Everything doesn't have to be perfect. Above all, you need a clean, lively room.

Choosing the right moment for your photo shoot

Keep it simple: clean sheets, puffy cushions, textured plaid at the end of the bed. Let patterns and materials express themselves. Choose a small, consistent color palette. Put away bedside tables and hide cables. Light a soft, warm bedside lamp. Clean mirrors to avoid streaks. Want more ideas for indoor and outdoor images? Visit couple and family photographer.

Light and atmosphere during an in-home maternity session in Clermont-Ferrand

Windows and curtains - soft, stress-free light

Open the curtains and let the light in. Use a light curtain if the sun is strong. No need to change the whole living room. Late afternoon light often works very well. Leave a lamp on for a warm spot. Together, they create a simple, warm atmosphere. Want to compare with an outdoor session? See maternity session in winter.

Lights, garlands and discreet flash - warm rendering

Light one or two lamps, depending on the room. A garland can add a gentle rhythm. The flash is just to brighten faces. It doesn't change the mood. It retains the effect of the lamps and reflections. The result: even, natural, pleasant light.

Outfits and organization for a home maternity session in Clermont-Ferrand

Outfits, accessories and small sets

Plan no more than two outfits to save time. Choose flowing fabrics and soft colors. Avoid logos that are too obvious. Coordinate without dressing identically. Prepare a basket with plaid, shawl and two accessories. Think of a memory that speaks to you. Keep everything simple and legible.
