Congratualtions to Sarah and Ben. We got the exciting news in the early hours of this morning that Sarah had given birth to a beautiful baby girl weighing in at 8lbs 9oz at around 3am. Both mum and baby are doing well and we're really looking forward to seeing them soon. Looks like the newborn shoot will be in the offing imminently too! Great news.

Following on from the item a few posts below in the blog, I've now shown Sarah her maternity photos and she's been really pleased with them - something which I'm obviously really happy about! It was a great pregnancy shoot and we got to try lots of things out on the day, so thanks again Sarah for that. With her baby due any day now, I hope everything goes well and am really looking forward to seeing your new arrival (and taking your baby shots for you!). I've put together the slideshow in this post which picks out my favourite shots from the session. I hope you like it. It was put together with my slideshow software and then uploaded to YouTube. Happy viewing and any feedback is really welcomed. Following on from the trial run back in November, I had the main pregnancy photo shoot with Sarah at the weekend. We set up the 'studio' in her conservatory and spent a good couple of hours shooting different poses and set ups. I ended up with some great shots that I'm working through at the moment but have been very happy with what I've done so far. As usual, Sarah was game for a laugh and we got some fun shots of her in her partner's Liverpool football shirt along with the more classical shots taken during a preganacy shoot. The shot below is just a quickly caught portrait from the session and hopefully once Sarah has seen the final images she'll be happy for me to post some of the bump shots so you can see the finished results. One prop I did find really useful during the shoot was a couple of lengths of voile fabric which allowed Sarah to remain covered up but with careful positioning let us catch the real magic of her pregnancy.
With more and more women wanting to capture memories of the wonderful changes they are undergoing during their pregnancies, this is an area of my photography that I hope to expand when potential clients see what can be produced. Thanks again to Sarah for the fun shoot - am sure you're not going to be disappointed with the results. With my pregnancy and baby photography service, I cover the areas of Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and London. Please do use the contact form on the site if you are interested in arranging a maternity or baby photography session. I had my first maternity shoot at the weekend - courtesy of Sarah. It was really good experience, no doubt aided by the fact that Sarah is a very good friend of ours and was happy to try out lots of poses.
We set up in a small area and made the most of natural window light with a small bit of fill in flash through a Lastolite Ezybox Hotshoe to light up any shadows. I mainly used my Nikon 50mm f1.8 lens at it's widest aperture so sharp focussing was key. I'm really pleased with the results and I hope Sarah will be too when she sees them all. Thanks for letting me capture you at your finest at this special time. Am looking forward to our main session in late January. Here is an example of one of the shots from the session: |
