Who is maternity photography for?

My maternity sessions are for every kind of Mama-to-be — at any age, in any season of life.

This is a space to slow down and honour your experience, exactly as it is. Together, we’ll capture the raw, quiet beauty of this time — your version of motherhood, and all the emotion that comes with it.

What if I’m a little nervous or uncomfortable about how I look?

You’re not alone — and this isn’t about perfection (or even imperfection). I don’t work with those ideas. I’m much more interested in honesty, acceptance, and creating something artful that still feels like you.

We’re not here to smooth over reality or force anything. I want you to feel safe in your skin — to see your strength, softness, and story reflected back to you with care. I’ll guide you gently, whether you're feeling confident or unsure.

Truthfully? I’m awkward in front of the camera too. That’s how I know how to help you feel at ease. So come exactly as you are, and I’ll meet you there.

I’ll meet you wherever you are

Emotionally. Mentally. Energetically.

This isn’t a performance — it’s a conversation. One where we follow your pace. If you’re camera-shy, that’s not a problem — I know how to hold space without pressure. And if you’re more comfortable, I’ll match that too.

We can shoot indoors in your home or outdoors in nature — and with longer sessions, sometimes both. I love when a session turns into a quiet exploration of the moment, the light, and who you are right now.

Let’s let it unfold gently. And yes — let’s enjoy it too.

When is the best time for Maternity Photos?

The sweet spot is usually between 28–33 weeks.

Some Mamas feel ready earlier, others later — it depends on how your bump is growing and how you're feeling in your body. Around 35 weeks is often when your body is changing most visibly, but energy levels may start to dip, so earlier is sometimes better.

Ultimately, it's whenever you feel ready. There’s no rule — just what feels right for you.
