The whole experience of being pregnant, giving birth and then holding your newborn baby is one of the most profound times in a woman’s life. It is also said to be one of the most fleeting. You often hear people say ” I wish I’d had some photographs taken when I was pregnant”, as it is an incredible time in your life which goes so quickly, and can never be replaced.

It is one of the most exciting and special times in your life. Women are amazing, our bodies are incredible, why not celebrate with a photoshoot, to remember this special moment in time.

Maternity sessions take place either in the studio or an outdoor location of choice, and usually take about 1 – 1.5 hours.

Maternity sessions are best photographed between 32 -36 weeks, before your little baby prepares itself for birth and moves down into your pelvis. This little manoeuvre can make your belly ‘drop’ & it’s not very flattering on camera.

Please book your session asap, as you will have more and more things to do as your pregnancy progresses. Many of our clients regret not getting their first pregnancy photographed because they were too busy to book a session.

Your partner and children are always welcome to participate in the session – they are an important part of this special time!

When booking a maternity session, you will have Captured by Melinda, Today, Tomorrow & Always’ full range of maternity gowns, drapes and fabrics to choose from for your session, or if you prefer, you are welcome to bring your own clothing.
