Export Posing and Attention to Detail

Posing is my superpower.
I guide and direct you throughout your session to create natural, effortless poses that feel relaxed and authentic.

The Seven Essential Posing Rules:

1. Chin
2. Shoulders
3. Hands
4. Hourglass
5. Body Language
6. Asymmetry
7. Connection

Every detail matters. From where your hair falls to how your clothes are positioned, I carefully refine every element to ensure perfection in every shot.

Classic Lighting Style

Using Studio Lighting to Enhance Your Portraits

I create timeless and evocative lighting styles that enhance the mood and impact of your portraits. This controlled and artistic approach adds depth and ensures your images are stunning.

Retouching with Care

My retouching process focuses on subtle enhancements, preserving your natural beauty while addressing any insecurities you may feel during pregnancy.

• Polished, Confident Images: My editing skills enhance each photograph, ensuring you look and feel amazing.

Maternity Wardrobe Options

Effortless Elegance, Perfectly Styled

Deciding what to wear doesn't have to be overwhelming. My studio offers a curated selection of draping materials and complimentary maternity gowns to make the process seamless.

Wardrobe Suggestions for Every Style

• Minimalist Looks: Barely-there draping or nothing for a timeless, artistic style.
• Casual Chic: Regular jeans (not maternity ones) with a camisole or an oversized white button-up shirt.
• Elegant Draping: Flowing or formfitting dresses for a polished and graceful aesthetic.
• Cosy Classics: Buttoned-up or turtleneck jerseys for a simple, stunning look.
• Foundation Pieces: Neutral strapless bras and seamless underwear to pair effortlessly with various wardrobe options.
• Bold and Beautiful: Black or white lingerie sets for dramatic portraits.
• Timeless Simplicity: Tube tops or tummy bands to highlight your bump elegantly.
• Family Coordination: Match colours and styles for a cohesive partner or family portraits.
• Sentimental Touches: Add meaning to a wedding veil, sari, or heirloom piece.

Pro Tips:

• Plan to ensure you have everything you need for your session.
• Choose outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable—this will shine through in your photos.

Preparing for Your Maternity Photoshoot

Hair

Visit your hairdresser a week before your session to allow time for adjustments and natural settling.

Hands and Nails

Don't overlook your hands!

• Trim and manicure nails for everyone joining the shoot.
• Choose neutral or clear nail polish for a timeless look.

Make-Up

Natural make-up enhances your features beautifully. I can arrange an additional fee for a professional make-up artist.

Ideal Timing for Your Session

Plan your maternity session 2–3 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date.

• Ideal Timing: Between 30 and 35 weeks for a prominent yet comfortable bump.

Creating Meaningful Portraits

I am dedicated to crafting portraits beyond the surface, capturing the emotional connections that make your story unique. Subtle gestures—like the placement of hands or the expression in your eyes—add layers of meaning that transform each image into a deeply compelling and memorable work of art.
