🌟 Must-Have Maternity Photoshoot Props to Make Your Session Magical
Expecting a little one is a journey filled with emotions, excitement, and transformation. A maternity photoshoot is the perfect way to preserve this beautiful phase forever — and the right maternity photoshoot props can elevate your portraits from simple to stunning! 🌈
At Meghna Rathore Photography, our Palam Vihar (Gurgaon) studio is specially designed for maternity, newborn, baby, and kid photography, and we make sure every session includes a gorgeous mix of props, themes, and styling options to reflect the mom-to-be’s unique personality.
Let’s dive into some beautiful, timeless, and fun props that add magic to maternity photography sessions. 💖
🧺 1. Flowing Maternity Gowns & Drapes
One of the most iconic props in maternity photoshoots is a flowing gown or drape. These not only enhance the expecting mother’s silhouette but also add elegance and drama to the image.
✨ We offer a wide range of designer maternity gowns — from bold statement pieces to soft pastels and dreamy lace — in our Palam Vihar studio. Many of our gowns are paired with long trails and capes for that perfect swirl shot!
👒 2. Hats, Floral Crowns & Headpieces
Accessories like boho hats, flower crowns, and vintage headpieces are subtle yet impactful props that enhance portraits and give them a storybook vibe.
🌼 A floral crown adds a goddess-like feel, while a chic hat can give a more casual, rustic vibe to outdoor maternity shoots.
🍼 3. Baby Items: Tiny Shoes, Ultrasound Prints, Baby Clothes
Personal baby props are not only adorable but highly emotional. Include a pair of your baby’s first booties, a cute onesie, or even your ultrasound scan in the photos. These props create meaningful memories and highlight the anticipation of meeting your little one.
💬 These are especially beautiful in maternity couple photoshoots where both parents hold baby items together.


🧸 4. Wooden Alphabets & Name Boards
Add a touch of personalization to your shoot with wooden letters, light-up boards, or chalkboards displaying your baby’s name or initials. These props make the photos feel more customized and meaningful.
Bonus tip: If the baby name is a surprise, use fun boards with “Coming Soon” or “Baby [Last Name]” messages.
🪷 5. Ethnic Props: Dupattas, Bindis, Jhumkas & Bangles
For ethnic maternity photoshoots, traditional accessories add vibrant color and cultural charm. A bright phulkari dupatta, shimmering bangles, or a statement bindi can truly transform your look.
🌺 These props work beautifully against earthy backgrounds or indoor Indian-themed setups — something we specialize in at our Gurgaon photography studio.
🎀 6. Artistic Backdrops & Themed Decor
We go beyond the basic and offer custom themes like floral nests, celestial skies, vintage setups, and more. From dreamy pastel balloons to minimalist white elegance — our props and backdrops are curated to make each session unique.
🖼️ Our indoor studio has multiple themed setups ready to use — and we love mixing in props for the perfect Instagram-worthy look.


📸 7. Couple-Centric Props for Maternity Shoots
Doing a maternity couple shoot? Include props like matching mugs, baby books, or even framed quotes that represent your journey as parents-to-be. It adds storytelling charm and keeps the vibe intimate.
🧘 8. Comfort Props – Pillows, Stools & Fabrics
Behind every beautiful shot is a relaxed, comfortable mom-to-be! We use special maternity stools, cushions, and seating props to help with posing and comfort.
🧡 Our studio is temperature-controlled, sanitized, and baby-safe to ensure moms can move, pose, and enjoy their session stress-free.
🧡 Final Thoughts: Props Make the Memories Personal
While stunning gowns and pretty props can elevate the photoshoot, it’s the emotions behind them that truly bring the pictures to life. That’s why we customize every prop choice to reflect your story, comfort, and personality.
