London Maternity Photography
I’ve been doing maternity photography in London for 13 years now, and honestly, it still gets me every time.
The bumps, the couples, the quiet connection—it’s all just so beautiful. It kind of reminds me of photographing wedding speeches (I’ve captured a few weddings over the years)—those moments that get under your skin in the best way.
But maternity photos? That’s a whole different kind of magic.
THE Energy I WORK WITH
Usually, at some point in the session, I start to feel like I’ve known the couple longer than I actually have.
That’s when the photos really start to flow. I find myself quietly “aaah-ing” behind the camera (sometimes not so quietly—oops).
I’m watching them giggle or exchange a glance and wondering what sweet little thing one of them just said. There’s something about the energy between expecting parents—it’s tender, sometimes awkward, always full of love.
And that’s kind of my sweet spot.
Even if things feel a bit unsure at first, leaning into that energy makes everything better. I’m an empath at heart, so I can’t help but feel it all. That connection, even in the quietest form, is where the best images live.

MY Maternity and Mama Sessions
My maternity photoshoots (whether it’s just you or with your partner) are designed to explore your version of motherhood—raw, natural, and real.
This isn’t about chasing perfect. It’s about acceptance. About showing up as you are and feeling good in that space.
These sessions are as much about your emotional experience as they are about creating beautiful maternity photos. I’ll guide you through natural movements, help you connect with your body, and maybe even see it in a new light. Every curve, bump, and stretch mark is welcome here.
CLOTHING AND COMFORT
I’ll support you with styling—nothing forced or overly styled, just honest suggestions to help you feel your best.
Together, we’ll figure out what suits your energy, body, and mood.
I’ll share my wardrobe and mood boards too, if that helps.
Let’s Make It Yours
This is your story, your moment. Whether you’re feeling bold or shy, whether it’s your first baby or your fourth—I’ll meet you there.
Let’s brave the elements (yes, I do indoor maternity photography too) and connect with something deeper. Let’s play a little. Explore what’s unfolding. And make some maternity photos that feel like you.
