Why maternity session is so special and important?

As a woman and mother, I understand that pregnancy is both a deeply special and challenging time. We often feel tired, uncomfortable, and in pain. Morning sickness doesn’t make it any easier, and weight gain can leave us feeling far from our best. (I gained 24kg with my son and felt enormous!) I completely understand these feelings.

But at the same time, we are also blessed with something truly magical. There is nothing quite as unique as pregnancy. We carry a second heart (or more, sometimes, haha) just beneath our own. A little human growing inside us—what could be more incredible than those nine months?

With my first two children, I struggled. I felt unattractive, heavy, and far from beautiful. Because of that, I believed a maternity session wasn’t for me. And you know what? Time slipped by... day by day, year by year. I would look at the few photos I had taken on my phone, with no makeup, no hairstyling, no special outfits, and I felt a sadness. I hadn’t recognized the beauty of that time. I regretted not having a professional maternity photoshoot to remember such a significant chapter of my life.

When I became pregnant with my third baby, I decided to do things differently. Right after my 12-week scan, I booked a maternity session. I didn’t focus on the extra kilos or the discomfort. It was one of the best decisions I made. Now, I can look back at those photos and cherish that magical time forever. Memories may fade, but your photos will stay with you for a lifetime.

Rest assured, I will pose you in ways that showcase your strength and beauty. My lighting softens any signs of tiredness, and my dresses are designed to flatter and cover any areas you may feel self-conscious about. You will look absolutely stunning because you are truly the most amazing person in the world. Never let yourself think otherwise!

Now, I’d love to share some images from Tanya’s professional maternity session. She looked absolutely stunning and rocked her pregnancy shoot in style!

Please note that all gowns and outfits from above photographs are provided by me and my CLients are more then welcome to use them during maternity session at my Wolverhampton (Willenhall) home based studio.

See you soon!
