How does booking work?: Send a free request with your place, date and plans. Nordiora checks which professionals are available and replies with a proposal stating who will shoot, the package and the exact price. Nothing is booked until you accept.

Pregnancy goes quickly at the end, and once the baby arrives there is very little time to think about photos. A maternity session is a quiet hour set aside to record how you look and feel right now, often for the first and only time.

The sessions we arrange are unhurried and comfortable. Your photographer plans around your energy, suggests positions that feel good rather than awkward, and gives you breaks when you need them. You can be photographed alone, with your partner, or with older siblings who are about to become big brothers and sisters.

We match you with an independent photographer near you who has experience with maternity work. You receive one proposal with the photographer’s name, what the session includes, the number of edited photos and the price, and nothing is booked until you accept.

Where the shoot happens

Outdoor maternity photos in Sweden suit soft, open places with space to move slowly. In Malmö, Ribersborg beach gives wide sand and sea, and the evening light over the water is gentle. In Stockholm, the meadows of Hagaparken and the shoreline paths on Djurgården are close to the city, and in Göteborg Slottsskogen has lawns and old trees. Uppsala and Lund have quiet parks and botanical gardens, and summer houses in the archipelago give a relaxed, private setting. In winter or bad weather, many photographers offer an at-home or studio session instead. For a family session after the birth, see family photoshoots and family photos in Sweden.

Preparation tips

Book in the second trimester for a session around weeks 28 to 34, when the bump shows but moving is still comfortable.
Choose fitted dresses or knitwear that show the shape of the bump; flowing dresses work well outdoors.
Bring flat shoes for walking to the spot and a warm layer, even in summer by the sea.
Plan the session for the time of day you usually feel best, and bring water and a snack.
If you want older children in the photos, keep their part short and at the start, while they are still fresh.
Mention any discomfort or restrictions to the photographer; a good session should never be tiring.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a maternity photoshoot cost in Sweden?

Maternity sessions through our team start from 2,990 kr for about an hour and around 35 edited photos. Longer sessions, a second location, studio hire or travel cost more; the price is stated in your proposal. See the pricing page for all starting prices.

When is the best time in the pregnancy for the photos?

Most people choose between weeks 28 and 34, when the bump is clearly visible but you can still move comfortably. If you are expecting twins or feel tired early, an earlier date can be better. Your own comfort comes first.

Can my partner and children be in the photos?

Yes. Many sessions start with photos of the expecting parent alone and then bring in the partner and older children. Mention everyone who should take part in your request.

What if it is cold or raining on the day?

Swedish weather changes quickly. Most photographers keep a backup date or offer an indoor alternative at home or in a studio. Rescheduling terms are stated in the proposal.

Do I need to bring special clothes?

No, but it helps to think about it. Fitted dresses, soft knitwear or an open shirt over a vest all work well. Some photographers can lend dresses; ask when you plan the session.
