Maternity and Baby
If you're looking for a maternity and newborn photographer, I'd love to hear from you. You'll never regret asking a professional to capture this time of your life - from glowing pregnancy to new parents.
It's a special time of a woman's life. But it's also a time that can easily be forgotten as the juggernaut of motherhood rolls into town. Preserve those memories.
Please see my You & Yours FAQ section for information on how I'll work with you to create beautiful memories of you and your partner and new baby.
Being pregnant is an incredible gift. And yes, you do glow!
The best time to capture your pregnancy is during your 7th and at the latest, your 8th month. This is when your beautiful bump is showing, but you still look and feel your best and are comfortable moving around.
The first weeks with your new baby is a magical time - a roller-coaster of love, emotion and not much sleep.
We'll schedule your photo-shoot within the first 2-3 weeks after your due date. The best time to capture your baby is 5 - 14 days after the birth - in their sleepy stage - when they're still so small, wrinkled and curled-up. Basically still very fetal.
Of course, we'll work to your baby's schedule of napping, feeding and nappy changing (as far as that's a thing in the first few weeks).
Before you know it, this extraordinary moment evolves and your baby is smiling and sitting up.
In a haze of feeding, burping and getting to grips with the paraphernalia, the first weeks go by very quickly as you get to grips with your baby's schedule.
My baby sessions freeze these moments in time. In the first year, I would recommend you consider a mini- session with you, with your partner and/or with any siblings at 16 weeks, 8 months and a year old.
Your baby's voyage of discovery, both of themselves and their environment, is a joy to document. Images you will love to have to look back at.
