A gentle way to remember the season before you met them. The anticipation, the connection, and the quiet excitement of what’s to come.
FAQ
 
When’s the best time to book a maternity session?
I recommend scheduling your shoot for around 32–34 weeks. You’ll have a beautiful bump by then, but you’re usually still feeling pretty comfy moving about. That said, every pregnancy is different, so we’ll always plan around how you’re feeling.
Where will the session take place?
Sessions can take place outdoors at a beautiful location, or in the comfort of your home for a more intimate and natural feel. I’m always happy to recommend locations that photograph beautifully.
Can my partner or children be included?
Absolutely! Maternity sessions are about your family as a whole. Partners, siblings and even pets are very welcome. Including them adds depth, connection and storytelling to your gallery.
What if I’m awkward in front of the camera?
You’re not alone! Most mums-to-be feel the same. it’s not every day you’re getting your photo taken with a belly out front! I’ll keep things super relaxed and chatty, nothing too serious. We’ll just take it slow, have a laugh, and before you know it, you’ll forget the camera’s even there.
What should I wear?
I always recommend something that gently highlights your bump. Flowing dresses, fitted knits, linen, or a simple shirt and jeans works beautifully. I’m always happy to help you plan and find outfits so everything feels cohesive and flattering yet comfortable and feels like you.
Do I need to tidy the house before you arrive?
No deep cleaning required, I promise.
If you feel up to it, a quick tidy of a few little areas we might shoot in is more than enough. We’ll use a few pockets of your home where the light is beautiful, but there’s no need to stress about making everything perfect.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, absolutely. Some choose to spread their payments out over a few months.
Just let me know what works best for you, and we’ll set something up.
