Summer is a beautiful time of year to capture your growing baby bump outdoors. Pregnancy provides a wonderful time to capture the moments that are so fleeting, and so precious. I think it is so very important to capture memories of your baby while you are still carrying them, before you welcome them into the world. It is something to look back on and to cherish.

Summer isn't the only time of year that I can capture your bump outdoors. Autumn provides many magical colours, and if you are willing to brave the cold, and, believe it or not, so does winter!

Maternity Photo shoots can take place indoor, but I just love to capture the outdoor glow of the sunlight on a picturesque backdrop. I often like to give you a timeline of pictures, starting with your new baby bump, to when you are bigger, and then see your wonderful new arrival all grown up at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and so on. It is amazing how much they change in the first year and it is wonderful to capture those moments on camera.

I recently photographed my sister on a maternity session and her beautiful bump. We chose an outdoor location, and just look at those colours. The sky provided us with a stunning backdrop of colours and clouds that evening and I captured her bump against this beautiful backdrop. So very calm and serene.

Partners are very welcome to be involved in these photo shoots.
