Shannon's maternity shoot

14/8/2014

0 Comments

 
Back in March I photographed Shannon from Luton for her maternity photo shoot after she had contacted me via my Bump2Baby Portraits website.  All of the images you see in my post have kindly been personally approved for inclusion by Shannon herself.

I was delighted to hear that her baby boy safely arrived and is now home and doing well.  I was able to visit the
family again a couple of months ago to photograph a newborn session with them and it was really enjoyable - I'll post a selection of images from that session in a future post soon.

For the maternity session I was able to set up my collapsible studio backdrop and lights in their living room which gave us enough space to capture the shots we were after.  I was able to use a couple of different backdrop options so we got a great mixture of shots.

We started with some shots of Shannon and her partner together.  Here are a couple of the images we
captured:

Laura's maternity photo shoot in Stevenage - sneak peek

14/9/2012

0 Comments

 
A few weeks ago I photographed Laura from Stevenage for her baby bump photo shoot after she contacted me via my Bump2Baby Portraits website.  All of the images you see in my post have kindly been personally approved for inclusion by Laura herself.

The package that Laura chose was my Bump To Baby Deluxe package which includes a maternity shoot, then a newborn shoot followed by a shoot at around 4, 8 and 12 months during the baby’s first year.

We’ve provisionally scheduled the newborn shoot for next month and I look forward to seeing their baby grow over the course of the year.

Back in January I was asked to undertake Claire's somewhat last minute pregnancy photo shoot.

We got some great images from the session - one of my favourites is shown just to the right here.

Having shown Claire and her husband the final selection of images I worked on and them having chosen their favourites, they were very kind in agreeing that I could share with you a slideshow that I put together for them of images featuring Claire on her own.

Enjoy!

Maternity photography in Borehamwood

14/3/2011

0 Comments

 
Over the weekend I had the pleasure of photographing a lovely couple from Borehamwood - Tanya and Gary, who are expecting their first child in the middle of next month.  Tanya had contacted me a couple of months ago via Bump2Baby Portraits to arrange a pregnancy photo shoot in her home.

We had a really good session in both their garden and in my home studio setup that I am able to take to clients’ homes.  Despite being slightly nervous at first, with my calming reassurance, they both soon relaxed and we were able to capture some lovely images which I’m sure they’re going to love when they see them and will give them a lasting memory of this special time.  Hopefully they’ll agree that I can post a couple of the shots up from the session here once they’ve had a chance to see them for themselves.

I really do find that being in surroundings that you are used to helps clients to relax and enjoy their photo sessions a lot more.  There’s no need to worry about arriving at a studio late, having to find somewhere to park, forgetting something and generally feeling rushed and flustered.  I am able to set my equipment up in most locations and situations, whatever the space available.  I will generally travel to clients within a 20 mile radius of Watford, Hertfordshire, though if clients live further afield, we can normally work something out.

Sarah's maternity shoot - slideshow

11/3/2009

0 Comments

 
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.

Sarah's maternity shoot - part 2

4/2/2009

0 Comments

 
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.

My first maternity shoot in Hertfordshire

9/11/2008

0 Comments

 
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:
