and how to get the most out of yours


Pregnancy can be a time of profound beauty and transformation, it can also be challenging, Sometimes we love the way our bodies change, and sometimes it's tougher than we thought. A maternity session is for capturing you and your blossoming bub, wherever you're both at on your journey.


What happens during a maternity session? There's really only one thing you need to decide, and that's what you'd like to be wearing. You can even give me a vibe of what you're after, and I can make some suggestions. For example, this website is based in Australia, they hire out dresses specifically for maternity shoots. I love them! A gown can completely transform the shoot. My clients access 15% off, so let me know before you place your order.


You may already have something in your closet that feels just right. Whatever you choose will be perfect, and I'm always here to help if you aren't sure.

After we've settled on what to wear, I'll choose a few (relatively private) locations and we'll agree on a date and time that suits us both.

Then we just show up, have some laughs and make beautiful images. It's that easy.

What about posing? Here are a few tips to remember:


  1. Embrace the Glow: That magical glow that every talks about? It's real. Let's use it! Choose clothing and styling that accentuates your personality, whether it's flowy dresses or form-fitting tops that showcase your blossoming curves. It's advisable to stay away from loud patterns (think stripes or large dots) but at the end of the day, whatever you feel comfortable and confident in is best.
  2. Curves are where it's at: Pop that bent leg out, raise an arm to touch your hair, anything that creates more shapes is what we're after. Let's capture your beautiful bigness during this super special time.
  3. Remember your Power: Motherhood and nature share a deep connection, both embodying the power of creation. This is why I shoot exclusively outdoors. We even could use using floral wreaths, delicate flower crowns, or floral arrangements if that's your vibe!
  4. Celebrate the Bond: A maternity session not only celebrates you, but also honours the profound bond between you, your partner, and lil bub. Invite your partner to join in the shoot and allow me to highlight the connection between you. Let your photographs narrate your love story for the little life growing within you.
  5. Get Real: As I'm sure you know, pregnancy is a time of intense emotions - joy, excitement, wonder, and even vulnerability. Letting your guard down enough to let me see some real emotion creates captivating and authentic images. As always, your comfort is my top priority, so how deep we go (or don't) is entirely up to you.


This session isn't just about capturing the physical changes of pregnancy; it's about celebrating this massive shift in your life as a woman and mother. It's my privilege to be able to hold space for you and reflect your brilliance back to in images that you'll cherish for years to come.
