Following our pregnancy photo session I went back to Tina and Billy’s last week to photograph their gorgeous newborn baby. This kind of session is dangerous for me as it makes me feel so broody! Only a few days old, baby T was a perfect model: so alert for the first half of the session and then he went to sleep and looked so peaceful on his parents’ bed.

I would like to share a few photos from a pregnancy session with lovely Claire back in September. At 34 weeks she was positively glowing!

One of the things I really love about my job is that no two shoots are the same. I take the photographs in people’s homes, in their own environment, and I love the variety and the challenge of producing the best possible images for my customers. Last week I had the pleasure to meet body-art lovers Kim and Richard.

Kim is only a few weeks away from giving birth, looks beautiful and I really wanted to show off her tattoos. Here are some of my favourites from this shoot, including some posing smiles from their cute dog.

I had the pleasure of meeting Louise yesterday who is expecting her first baby in just a couple of weeks. She was after some pregnancy photographs to capture her lovely shape and record this special time in her life.

Here are a few photos from a nice pregnancy photo shoot I did today, the first half of a Bump to Baby package. Marisha’s lovely flat was full of light and the wallpaper in the master bedroom provided the perfect backdrop to her beautiful shape.

Yuval contacted me last year to book a Bump to Baby package as a surprise present for his wife Maya. They already had two lovely boys and whole family was such a pleasure to photograph, I was really looking forward to their baby girl’s arrival. An outbreak of chicken pox got in the way for a while but last week I was finally able to meet them all again with the wonderful addition of baby A. The boys seemed to be have grown a lot in this short period, N had lost his first milk tooth and E’s curls had been replaced by a smart boy’s haircut. I feel very privileged to have met them and to have been able to capture the family as 4 became 5!

Here are a few photos from the second session, I had real trouble picking my favourites as they were so many!

I just love doing the bump to baby sessions, especially with first time parents as they go through such a life changing experience. Fouzan and Vijaya are a really lovely couple and having met them for the pregnancy shots in October I was really looking forward to finally meet baby A in January! He really made my heart melt with his big brown eyes and I was so pleased to be able to capture some of his very first smiles. Here are a few photos I love from both shoots.

I love doing the Bump to Baby packages, meeting parents just a few weeks before the baby arrives, and again once the baby is born.

Emma and Chris are such a nice couple and it was a pleasure to meet them before and after the birth of gorgeous baby Alfie. The bedroom with its bright pink wall was a great backdrop for the pregnancy photos. For the newborn shots, black and white was used for timeless father and son portraits.

Here are a few of my favourite shots, including a surprise visit from the family cat!
