FAQ
We look forward to create your own bespoke sculpture, a beautiful piece of art that will remind you of your life now, your pregnancy, how powerful, strong and beautiful you are.
Below you can find frequently asked questions with their answers, if your question is not included, please contact us at [email protected]
I'm pregnant and want to capture my beautiful bump, what is the best time to do this?
Congratulations! The best time would be between week 30 and week 35 of your pregnancy, during these weeks you will have a beautiful bump. After week 35 there is an increased chance that you will give birth before we have had the posing session. If you are pregnant with twins, we would recommend to book the Milestonable posing session between week 28 and week 33, for the same reason as above, after week 33 there is an increased chance that you will give birth before we captured your beautiful bump.
If it is more convenient for you to meet us outside of these recommended weeks, for example because of existing travel plans to London, you are of course very welcome as well. We have created many wonderful sculptures of women in their second trimester. Also if you are over 35 weeks pregnant, you are still very welcome, please book with us at your earliest convenience.
Do I need to book a session far in advance?
Our recommendation is to book the Milestonable scanning session as soon you know the date to avoid disappointment when the date has been booked by someone else. We have our calender open on the ‘book me in’ page, on this page you can see which dates and times are still available. In general are Fridays and Saturdays our most popular days and most of the time fully booked.
Where will the posing session take place?
The posing session will take place at our studio in London (Brewer Street, W1F 0SG in Soho). This location is very easy to reach when you plan to travel by train and/or tube – a few minutes from Tottenham Court Road, Covent Garden, Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus station.
How long does a posing session take?
Most posing sessions take about an hour; we will have a look at the example sculptures, explain how the posing works and we will try poses that you love.
How long do I have to pose?
Each 3D image that will be taken of you will take about 2 minutes. After taking the image you can sit down and we can have a look into the result, or a different pose if you want to.
Do I have to know the pose I want before we meet?
No, we will have a look at various example poses together plus you can try multiple poses in front of the mirror to see which one feels as best option for your sculpture. It might be helpful to have a look at the examples on this website or on our instagram page.
What do I wear during a posing session?
It is entirely up to you what you wear while posing for your sculpture – if you wish to have a very natural silhouette we suggest to opt for seamless underwear, preferably a thong. You are also free to be completely undressed. We will have a dressing gown for you to wear before, after and in between poses.
Can I bring a friend, my mum or my partner to a posing session?
Yes, everyone is welcome as long as you feel comfortable during the session.
I want to give my wife, friend, mother, sister, girlfriend, daughter a personal sculpture of herself, can I book it for her?
Yes you can book it at the page ‘book me in’, please let us know if it is a gift so we can for example only show the sculptures in your pricing range. If you don’t have a date yet that the Milestonable posing session can take place you can send us an email ([email protected]) and we will create a voucher for you.
Do you also create sculptures of women who are not pregnant?
Yes of course, all female bodies are beautiful and worth capturing!
