Pregnancy Photo Shoot

Pregnancy Photo Shoot - Studio Session

When is the best time to book your maternity photo shoot?

I get answer this question a lot!

The answer is when your are ready. Some expecting mums and parents like to capture their pregnancy milestone early any time after 25 weeks. When your bump is just popping and you are still in the fabulous second trimester and are full of energy.

Some mums like wait until bump is in full bloom any time between 30-34 weeks.

Each mummy will feel differently and your beautiful baby bump will grow and pop at different times. So I like to keep in touch with my clients to find out the best time for them.

I photograph maternity session all around Harpenden, St Albans and Hertfordshire either outdoors or in clients homes.

I’ve recently been offering clients to capture their pregnancy portraits in my home studio. The light is simply divine and offers simplistic, modern and classic portraits for your maternity journey.

Get in touch if you would like to have a chat about recording your pregnancy memories.

Ps. for the Month of March, I’m offering a complimentary pregnancy & Maternity session for all newborn shoots booked.

Studio Maternity Photographs

Studio Maternity Photography

Classic, Elegant and fun pregnant photography

Step into the cozy embrace of a growing family's love story. Today, I'm thrilled to share with you the magical moments from a recent maternity session that truly captured the essence of anticipation, love, and the beauty of new beginnings.

Meet our radiant mama-to-be, glowing with the joy of welcoming her second child into the world. With her darling son by her side, the bond between mother and child shines brightly in every frame. From tender snuggles to playful moments of excitement as her little boy gently touches her growing bump, these images are a testament to the incredible journey of motherhood.

Throughout our session, we explored a variety of styles, from timeless elegance to casual comfort, allowing us to capture the full spectrum of this family's story. Whether fully dressed in sophisticated attire or embracing the simplicity of partially dressed moments, each photograph exudes warmth and intimacy.

As I look through these images, I'm reminded of the beauty that lies in the everyday moments shared between loved ones. It's not just about posing for the camera; it's about capturing the genuine connections, the laughter, and the love that fill our hearts.

To our radiant mama and her growing family, thank you for allowing me to be a part of this special chapter in your lives. Your love and joy are palpable in every photograph, and I feel truly honored to have been able to preserve these precious memories for you.

As we eagerly await the arrival of your newest family member, may these images serve as a reminder of the incredible journey you're on together—a journey filled with love, laughter, and endless moments of warmth and connection.

Mums kind words after receiving her photographs

Absolutely loved the whole experience, Emily made us feel so comfortable and worked so well with my 3 year old son to get some amazing shots individually and together. The space Emily uses is beautiful and I am so grateful for the special photos we captured. I highly recommend and hope to see Emily again in the future for some more family shots. Thank you, thank you, thank you xx

Magical Snow Maternity Photo Shoot - Hertfordshire & London

Dreamy Maternity Photos in the Snow

Winter is a time for snuggling, cuddling, and family. Maternity and pregnancy photographs captured during the snow and winter season are so magical.

I love these dreamy snowy and romantic winter hues.

I captured these stunning images of Daynor and her gorgeous bump one cold winter’s morning. We chatted all things babies while recording these precious memories of her second pregnancy. Mum was super relaxed and confident in front of the camera and really enjoyed the experience.

The contrast of the pink/ red dress against the snow is simply divine.

My Breastfeeding Story

I wanted to share more about my story.

I start my Beautiful Breastfeeding Photography project when Jack decided to self wean unexpectedly just over a year ago. I had a tricky start with my breastfeeding journey with both Evie and Jack however with the help of Uma and her amazing team @motherandchildsingapore, I was a pro.

I knew I wanted to breastfeeding my babies as soon as I fell pregnant. It felt like the most natural decision to make, however I had no idea it would be so tricky. My journey to falling pregnant with Evie was a long and emotional one so I was determined to be a master at nursing. The first few weeks Evie were really tough, involving syringe feeding, pumping and generally crying a lot. Once we found our flow it was amazing.

I weaned Evie from nursing just before her first birthday based on the advice from our gynae as we knew our journey to conceiving again could take a really long time. It was such a tough decision but I knew I wanted to try for a brother or sister for her too.

With Jack I had put no end date on our nursing journey. I wanted to enjoy the bonding with him for as long as possible. Being a second child I felt aware that we didn't get much alone time so our breastfeeding quiet time was so special. Sadly Jack fell poorly with an ear infection and that caused him to self wean. It happened so fast I was devastated. I kept our routine and kept offering him but he wasn't interested. He decided he only wanted a bottle.

I miss our quiet time together, when he would stare into my eyes and hold my face or play with my nose. I feel like I never got to do the 'last feed' and really prepare for the end. I never got to capture some photographs together (for either babies) apart from the selfies of course. I miss being his everything!

Motherhood Photography - Passion Project

Beautiful Breastfeeding Photography and Motherhood Photography

I start my ‘beautiful breastfeeding’ project when my son decided to self wean unexpectedly just over 2 year ago. I had a tricky start with my breastfeeding journey with both kids however with the help of an amazing lactation consultant, I was a pro. I loved nursing and it was such an amazing experience and bonding time with my kids. The project has evolved to be more inclusive to a "motherhood project" as I want to capture and encourage more pregnant mama's to capture their glowing mums.

My project is aimed to help mothers captured these incredibly special moments and bond in a natural and candid way. I love to encourage and inspire mums that breastfeeding is tough but beautiful and no matter how long you are able to do it, 1 day, 1 month, 1 year they are amazing!
