Hello,
I hope you're doing well — and congratulations!
My name is Mike Jaye, and I handle maternity model onboarding and media asset uploads at Expecting Models.
We’re currently seeking pregnant talent for maternity representation and upcoming bookings.
We’d love to explore the possibility of working together and see if you’re a great fit for our maternity clients.
To get started, please send the following:
1. Modeling Portfolio
Upload up to 30 high-resolution images from your professional portfolio.
2. Current Digital Snapshots (Max 10 Images)
We’d like to see your current look and the size of your baby bump.
✅ What to Capture:
• Full-length (head-to-toe), front view
• Left and right side profile views
• ¾ angle views (both sides)
• Full back view
• A few personality-driven poses
? Backdrop & Style:
• Plain white wall or white seamless background
• No visible outlets, clutter, or distractions
• Shoot vertically in high resolution
• Avoid cropping too tightly
• If shooting indoors, feel free to use a fan for a few takes — it can create a fun, sexy vibe
? Pose Guide:
• Face forward
• Left and right ¾ views
• Full back
• Then have fun — show your personality!
? Hair & Makeup:
• Be camera-ready
• Simple hairstyles — no hats, bows, or visible clips
• Please provide a few hair variations (e.g., hair down, ponytail, etc.)
? If including baby:
• Keep your baby’s face clean
• No food, toys, or accessories
Final Tips:
• Practice in front of a mirror to find your best angles
• Relax and smile — let your natural personality shine through
• Focus on capturing flattering, full-body images that highlight your current shape
If you have any questions at all, feel free to reach out. I look forward to seeing your photos!
Warmly,
Mike Jaye
