Beach maternity photoshoots are a wonderful way to capture the magic of expecting a little one, with the natural beauty of the ocean providing the perfect backdrop.

Beach maternity pose

To help you make the most out of your session, we’ve put together a list of five top beach maternity photography poses that will create lasting memories.

Whether you’re on the pristine shores of Thassos or another stunning Greek island, these poses will bring out the beauty of your journey to parenthood.

Cradling the Belly While Facing the Horizon

One of the most classic beach maternity poses is having the expecting mother stand with her feet in the sand, facing the ocean, and cradling her baby bump.

As seen in our recent photoshoot with Violetta, standing by the water while gently cradling her bump, creating a striking and memorable image.

This pose allows the mother-to-be to take in the serenity of the beach while showcasing her silhouette against the sea.

Pregnancy beach session

It’s best done during the golden hour to capture the soft, flattering light that enhances the beauty of both the expectant mom and the scenery.
