I’ve gathered some of my favorite dresses that I’ve personally photographed for lifestyle newborn sessions, seen used for indoor sessions, or just meet my requirements for a comfortable but photogenic dress to new moms to wear for at-home sessions. Most are nursing friendly, some double as baby bump friendly, some have elastic waists, others leave extra room to breathe. All fit my recommendation of soft, muted colors.
LEFT: Maxwell’s Wild One Dress is nursing friendly with an adjustable tie-waist. I LOVE this one and am eager to photograph someone in it! It’s $70. RIGHT: Free People’s Embroidered Fable Midi Dress has an adjustable tie-waist. I’ve personally photographed it and it works like a dream. It’s $168.
LEFT: Matron Saint The Founder Dress is lightweight and stretchy and works for pregnancy and postpartum. It’s $72 and would photograph well in Sage or Dusty Rose. RIGHT: The Piper & Scoot Warba Swiss Dot Empire Dress is nursing friendly and has an elastic waist. The cream color photographs well. It’s $52.
