Maternity Photos with Dogs | Pet-Friendly Family Session

All Blogs

Capturing maternity photos with dogs is always special. It’s a way to celebrate the love between parents-to-be and their furry family members. I recently had the pleasure of photographing a sweet, laid-back maternity session that featured a glowing couple with their first baby on the way and their two adorable pups.

A Joyful Maternity Session with Dogs

The couple was full of joy and anticipation as they shared this special time with their dogs by their side. Their love for each other and their fur babies was evident in every shot, and it was clear that this growing family was ready to welcome their little one with open arms—and paws! Including dogs in your maternity photos makes the session even more personal and fun.Whether you’re planning maternity photos with dogs or a family shoot with kids and pets, I love creating images that reflect your real-life bond

The Perfect Setting for a Family Maternity Session


The session took place in a serene outdoor location, which offered plenty of natural light and a peaceful atmosphere for the family to relax and enjoy the moment. The couple and their dogs were so comfortable, and it truly felt like they were in their element. The maternity shoot was not only about capturing the glow of pregnancy but also the warmth and connection between them as a family, including their two adorable dogs.

Incorporating Pets into Your Maternity Photos


Pets are an important part of many families, and including them in a maternity session is a beautiful way to document the whole family. Whether they’re running around in the background, snuggling with the parents, or posing for photos, pets bring a sense of playfulness and authenticity to the shoot. This couple’s dogs were perfect models, showing off their love for their parents as they posed for pictures and snuggled up to them.

Candid Moments Make the Best Photos
One of the best parts about shooting this session was capturing the candid moments between the couple and their dogs. From belly rubs to belly laughs, these are the moments that will be treasured for years to come. It’s these natural interactions that make maternity photos so meaningful—they show the joy, excitement, and anticipation of the parents-to-be as they await the arrival of their baby.

Why a Maternity Session with Pets is a Great Idea
Including pets in your maternity session is a wonderful way to celebrate your growing family and the special bond you share with your pets. It also makes for unique and heartfelt photos that reflect your life as it is now—before the little one arrives. Plus, it’s a fun way to include your furry companions in the memories you’ll cherish forever.

Whether you’re expecting your first child or adding to your growing family, capturing this time in your life with a maternity session that includes your pets can make the memories even more special.
