"I was 36 weeks and didn't want to pay $400 for a maternity shoot. Took photos in my bedroom, used this to add dreamy backdrops and soft lighting. My mom cried when she saw them. They look like magazine photos." @MamaToBe_Jessica

How to AI Photo Editor for Maternity Photos
-
Upload your maternity photo
Drop your bump photo into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works with any pregnancy stage - first bump reveal to final weeks. Phone photos, partner-taken shots, tripod selfies - any source works beautifully.
Background replacement: 30 seconds. Lighting enhancement: 25 seconds. Full transformation may need 2-3 edits. -
Describe your dream maternity look
Type what you envision: 'replace background with soft dreamy cream studio backdrop' or 'add warm golden hour lighting that glows around my bump.' Be specific about the mood you want - dreamy, ethereal, warm, soft. The AI understands maternity photography aesthetics.
Combine multiple elements in one prompt: 'soft cream background with warm golden lighting and gentle skin glow' for a complete transformation. -
Review your transformed photo
Check that you look naturally beautiful - not over-edited. Verify the bump is the focus. Ensure lighting enhances without washing out details. The goal is professional quality while looking like you, just in perfect conditions.
-
Refine details if desired
If you want specific adjustments - softer background blur, warmer lighting, or targeted skin smoothing - tap a marker on that area and describe the refinement. These edits are about enhancing your natural beauty, not changing who you are.
For skin smoothing, always specify 'gentle' and 'natural-looking.' Your stretch marks and body changes are part of your story - edit only what feels right to you.

When Things Go Wrong
Background replacement looks fake or cut-out
Why: Hair edges or flowing fabric can be challenging for the AI to blend naturally.
Tap markers on the edges that look cut-out, then: blend these edges naturally into the background, soften the transition
Soft, flowing backdrops are more forgiving than hard-edged studio setups.
Lighting looks unnatural or too intense
Why: The AI may have applied golden tones too aggressively or created unrealistic light sources.
make the lighting more subtle and natural, reduce the intensity while keeping the warmth
'Subtle' and 'natural' are key words for realistic lighting enhancement.
Skin smoothing removed too much texture
Why: Without specific guidance, skin smoothing can go beyond gentle enhancement.
Tap marker on over-smoothed areas, then: restore natural skin texture while keeping gentle enhancement, less is more
Always include 'natural-looking' in skin editing prompts. Real skin has texture.
The bump doesn't look as prominent
Why: Some edits can inadvertently affect the body shape when changing lighting or backgrounds.
enhance the visibility of the bump while keeping natural proportions, the bump should be the focal point
If this happens, regenerate with 'keep my body exactly as is, only change the background/lighting.'
AI changed the wrong area
Why: Without specific guidance, the AI had to guess which area you meant to edit.
Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt
Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS area specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to mark areas before describing what I want?
No. Just describe your edit: 'add golden hour lighting' or 'replace background with dreamy backdrop.' The AI understands these concepts. Only use markers when you need precision - like specifying which part of the image needs adjustment, or refining edges after your first attempt.
Can I smooth stretch marks if I want to?
Yes, this is entirely your choice. Use 'gently reduce visibility of stretch marks while keeping skin natural' if desired. Many parents choose to keep them as part of their pregnancy story, while others prefer subtle smoothing. EditThisPic gives you control without judgment.
How do I get that 'pregnancy glow' in my photos?
Request 'add warm golden hour lighting with soft glow' or 'create a gentle radiant glow on the skin.' The key is warm (not cool) lighting with soft diffusion. Combining this with a slightly blurred background makes the glow pop even more.
What makes a good maternity photo background?
Soft, neutral tones work best - cream, soft white, blush pink, or natural greenery. Request 'soft dreamy cream backdrop' or 'flowing white fabric background.' Avoid busy patterns that compete with you as the subject. The bump should be the star.
Can I use this for couple maternity photos?
Absolutely. EditThisPic works with any photo including shots with your partner. The same background replacement, lighting enhancement, and editing options apply. Just describe what you want: 'soft background behind both of us' or 'golden light on both subjects.'
