Pregnant and unsure about maternity photos?
Here's why capturing your bump is powerful, beautiful - and totally worth it.
Let's be honest — pregnancy is a wild ride.
One minute you're glowing and radiant, the next you're Googling whether it's normal to cry over running out of toast. You're growing a human, your body is working overtime, and your favourite jeans said goodbye somewhere around week 10.
And yet, there's something undeniably magical about this chapter.
It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of baby prep - hospital bags, antenatal classes, navigating the pram aisle without spiralling.
But here's the thing: your journey into motherhood deserves to be remembered. Not just with blurry bump selfies or mirror snaps in maternity leggings (although, I support those too!) - but with timeless, soul-stirring photographs that capture the beauty, strength, and emotion of this fleeting season. Here are just a few read why you should decide to have your maternity pictures taken:
1. Because You're Glowing (Even If You Don't Feel Like It)
Pregnancy has a way of making us hyper-aware of our bodies — the changes, the discomfort, the stretch marks, the swollen ankles. But what you don't see (and what l do) is how radiant you are. A professional maternity session is all about highlighting that glow, those curves, the quiet connection between you and the little life you're growing.
You don't need to pose like a model. You just need to show up, be yourself, and let me capture the love and strength that's already there.
2. Because This Chapter Is Short - And Powerful
It might not feel like it in the moment (especially at 3am when you can't get comfy), but pregnancy really does fly by. One day your bump is front and centre — the next, you're cradling your newborn and wondering where the time went.
A maternity shoot gives you a pause. A moment to honour your body, your journey, and this incredible transformation.
3. Because It's Not Just About the Photos
It's an experience. In my cosy Aldershot studio, I make it feel like a little escape — soft lighting, gentle guidance, flattering gowns or simple, timeless textures. Think of it as self-care, with the added bonus of gorgeous images.
You'll leave feeling empowered, connected, and (dare I say it?) a little like a goddess.
Partners are welcome! And if you have any children or step children, they are more than welcome to join in too.

Whether you're 28 weeks and blooming or 36 weeks and waddling, your story is worth capturing.
These are the moments your child will look at one day and say, "That's me in there. And look how beautiful Mummy looks."
