Tips for You
How to Prepare for Your Maternity Session
- ✓ The best time for photos is between weeks 28 and 34 — the bump is visible but you're still moving comfortably.
- ✓ Choose clothing that highlights your bump — flowy dresses, draped fabrics, or fitted tops work well.
- ✓ Include your partner and older children — these photos tell the story of your whole family.
- ✓ Schedule the outdoor session at sunset or sunrise for the softest light.
- ✓ Rest well before the session and eat something light to have energy.
- ✓ Bring a special blanket or accessory you plan to use in the baby's room.
Locations
Where We Photograph Maternity in Nashville
Shelby Bottoms Nature Park is our top maternity recommendation in Nashville — less crowded than the Parthenon and with exceptional golden light across open fields one hour before sunset. Cheekwood Estate and Gardens has a photography fee but the results justify every cent: manicured gardens and classic architecture create timeless images. Percy Warner Park offers stone steps and a forest canopy for more dramatic shots. Bells Bend, within city limits, delivers a deep rural feeling with views that do not look like Nashville at all.
The Parthenon (Centennial Park)
Regal, full-scale Greek columns. Permit ($25-$50) required for commercial shoots. Best time to photograph is sunrise (essential to avoid heavy tourism). Ideal for outdoor maternity sessions with soft natural light. Bella Luz knows the best angles at this location.

Frequently Asked Questions
Maternity in Nashville
When is the best time to do a maternity session in Nashville?
The ideal time is between weeks 28 and 36 of pregnancy, when the belly has its most beautiful rounded shape. For sessions at Shelby Bottoms or Cheekwood, we recommend spring (March-May) or fall (September-November) to take advantage of Nashville's lush vegetation and golden light.
Can I do my maternity session at Cheekwood in Nashville?
Yes, Cheekwood Estate and Gardens is one of Nashville's most elegant locations for maternity sessions. A photography fee is required and must be coordinated with the estate. Bella Luz handles all permits so you only have to show up and enjoy the session.
Can I include my partner and children in the maternity session?
Yes, the whole family is welcome. Some of our favorite sessions at Shelby Bottoms or the Parthenon include the partner, older siblings, and even grandparents. The session combines individual portraits of the mother with full family photos.
How long does a maternity session in Nashville last?
Maternity sessions last between 60 and 90 minutes. This gives us time to explore different areas of the park or garden, outfit changes if desired, and captures in both open natural light and under tree canopy.
