Maternity, what to expect...

Starting with a Mini Maternity Session between weeks 32 and 36 we will produce a gallery of stunning images of “ the time before time began", partners and siblings are welcome to join you.

Sessions last 30-45 minutes during which time you'll be photographed in my intimate home studio. There's no need to feel daunted (easier said than done), you'll find that the more you relax and enjoy it the easier and the more beautiful your images will be. There's no need to worry about posing, I'll walk you through the different setups and photograph you as you are.

One of the first question from clients about my maternity sessions is always what to wear, especially because most expecting mamas are (unnecessarily) self-conscious about their new bodies. Whilst my sessions are always tailored to your needs and expectations I think that there is nothing more beautiful than a woman's blossoming belly and this is your one time to let your belly show.

You can't go wrong if you bring a few of the items from this check list and together we'll select the best items:

• a basic white or gray tank top
• a lingerie set and slip dress or long flowing dress
• a good combination of tight fitting clothing to show off your bump

I also have a selection of dress and loungewear that can be used to add a little extra glamour to your shoot. Try to keep your colour choices and palette to pastels and neutrals only so that we can keep the look simple, feminine and beautiful.
