maternity photography information

 

I know what your thinking.

Massive floaty dresses, fans blowing your hair around, baby oil & photoshopped waistlines with perfectly rounded bumps.

Intimidating right?

Unfortunately for most, thats the picture you see in your head when you think of a maternity bump shoot all thanks to those not so trusty glossy mags.

But its not like that, it really isn’t.

A maternity shoot for me and my brand isn’t about the glamour, its a relaxed environment where we document a little bit of your pregnancy journey in images, it should be unique to you so you have a tangible memory to look back on, and to show your baby.

Pregnancy is no walk in the park. Your body & your mind is changing and adjusting for this new little person your carrying.

Trying to accept this new but temporary body is hard, we as women are always too hard on ourselves anyway. Thats why I make sure my maternity shoots are super relaxed, calm and real.

I want to capture you at that very milestone in your life. I want you to have fun and I want you to feel welcome.

I’ll be honest most of my bump shoots are quite like a friends meet up really, we chat, drink tea, eat biscuits & talk babies and bodies.

You don’t have to be naked and striped down, professional hair and make up did. Just be you.

In fact most of my clients wear a big over sized shirt or cardigan so not every part is on show.

But above all, no matter what you wear I want you to be comfortable in your own skin, because this really shows in the images.

Maternity photography is best scheduled around 28-34 weeks pregnant, this all depends on your bump size. We want to catch you when your bump is nice and round, but just before you start to feel too full and uncomfortable.
