Maternity sessions...some mums to be love the thought of them...some, not so much.
However, the not so much camp always surprise me..when I find out the reason for NOT loving the idea...we find deeper reasons... we chat them out...they book a session.. lo and behold ...THEY LOVE THIER PORTRAITS!
Whether you’re expecting your first baby or are a seasoned ‘pro’ when it comes to adding to your brood, there’s one thing you can be sure of – pregnancy goes by so quickly! I know that when you’re growing your little person it may not feel like the days are flying by… but I promise you that when you look back, you’ll realise just how fast time goes.
A maternity portrait session is the perfect way to celebrate your pregnancy. It’s a celebration of those nine months where you eagerly await the arrival of your little person, anticipating who they’re going to look like, what personality they’ll have and how they will enhance and add to your family set up. Maternity sessions are there to empower you and help you to create everlasting memories of your pregnancy, and that’s what you’ll get when you book with me. Feel comfortable, strong an confident are what empowerment sessions are all about…everyone is excited about the new baby that you are bringing into the world….this empowering portrait experience is to celebrate YOU!
When I shoot maternity sessions, my number one priority is the mum-to-be. My main aim is to make sure you’re relaxed and confident throughout, so I’ll be on hand to advise you on the best poses to adopt and the kind of lighting that will work best for you too. I know that it can sometimes feel daunting when at a photoshoot, so we’ll only ever shoot what you’re comfortable with.
You may want to think about the kind of setting you want to opt for when it comes to your maternity portraits. Some clients like to go for a more natural setting, maybe at home…and no, you don’t need to have an Instagram worth interior! Im photogaphing you, not your furniture! Windw light is all we need. Or maybe you prefer to go for all out glam? I LOVE shooting both. Photoshoots can be carried out in your home, in my studio or even in the great outdoors… whatever you feel is a good fit for you.
If you want to include your partner or siblings in the session this can also be arranged, just let me know that is your preference during planning stage!......I offer a completely bespoke service, your sessions is unique to you. Not sure what you really want from a session at all? No worries, I can help you with that too.
