Wearing jeans and a white shirt a maternity photoshoot has become a very popular look this year at our Boston Maternity Photography Studio.
Maternity Photoshoot in Jeans: Effortless, Stylish, and Timeless
Looking for a maternity photoshoot look that’s casual, confident, and iconic? A pair of jeans can be the perfect base for a simple yet powerful outfit that puts the focus on your beautiful bump and personal style.
How to Style Jeans for Your Maternity Photos
Keep it simple: A clean, minimal outfit lets your bump—and the emotion behind the session—take center stage.
Popular pairings include:
- White button-down shirts (open or tied above the bump)
- Soft, cropped knits or oversized sweaters
- Bare belly and bralette combos for a bold, body-positive vibe
- Minimal jewelry and barefoot styling for an intimate look
Pro Tips from a Boston Maternity Photographer
What type white shirt works best for a maternity photoshoot with jeans?
A white dress shirt from your husband’s closet adds a wonderful personal touch if the sizing is right. If you do not have the right size or style shirt, my studio wardrobe includes white dress shirts in several sizes to ensure the perfect oversize fit with your bump.
What type of jeans are best?
Non maternity jeans worn unbuttoned are best. This is something most moms already have in their closet making this an easy look for a maternity photoshoot. If your pre pregnancy jeans no longer fit, try your husbands jeans!
What type of bra is best?
A classic white bra works well with jeans and a white dress shirt, offering options for styling the shirt both buttoned and unbuttoned. A Calvin Klein bra or athletic top are also great options with jeans.
What other top options work well for a jeans maternity photoshoot?
A cropped tee shirt, athletic top or Calvin Klein bra are also all great options for maternity photos with jeans. Wearing the white dress shirt without jeans is another possible variation.
Reasons I love this look
- It is relaxed and comfortable
- It uses pieces you likely already have in your closet
- For many moms wearing jeans is more authentic and true to their style than a formal gown
What location is best for a maternity photoshoot with jeans and a white shirt?
An indoor or studio setting is ideal. My natural light studio provides the perfect private setting and modern white backdrops for this style of maternity photoshoot.

Why Wear Jeans for Your Maternity Session?
Jeans are a flattering and familiar wardrobe piece that highlights your shape while letting your personality shine. Here’s why they’re such a popular choice:
1. Timeless Style: Denim never goes out of fashion. Jeans add a modern, effortless look that feels authentic and grounded.
2. Body Confidence: Wearing jeans shows off the baby bump and allows for a bare belly without being revealing in areas many moms would prefer to keep covered.
3. Versatility: Jeans can be styled up or down with a variety of tops—think off-the-shoulder sweaters, lacy bralettes, or classic white tees.
4. Emotional Connection: For many moms, jeans are a familiar piece that makes them feel like themselves, even during a transformative time.
