The first maternity session for the year was Sakiko, she reached out to me just before the lockdown to have her maternity session done. I am so blessed to be the one getting to capture her beautiful body and journey to become a mother for the first time.

I am amazed at how relaxed and calm she was, anything from how she feels and to labour she said that I am sure it will be fine, I don’t have anything to compare it to so I am not worried. It’s true we just have to follow our body and do our best. Our body is after all designed to give birth and we are lucky to live in the part of the world where healthcare is fantastic.

We had a wonderful session that we started up in my studio and then took a short little walk into the park and captured some outdoor photos for her. My studio is just a few meters away from a big park and golf course with a lot of green areas and places to photograph at. I can’t wait for the spring to come along and be able to go out and shoot there more often.

If you are pregnant and are looking for an outdoor photo session I am here for you, I would love to book you in and make magic happen and yes you can have both studio and the outdoor if you wish and there is no extra charge for it.

I hope you will enjoy the images below and the dresses she is wearing in the studio are from my studio closet ready for you to use if you like.

Colour or Black and white, which is your favourite?

Elle and her wonderful family came out to Brent Lodge park where we captured some wonderful maternity photos. We had a few conversations to plan this session out so the clothing and time where perfect. She borrowed one of the dresses that I got in my studio. It’s a dress that I love and of course would love you to borrow when you are coming for your session with me. Its perfect even if you are pregnant or not. I know you might be thinking how can I borrow it? It might not fit me, I will tell you that this dress is a size uk 14 and Elle who is a small size I would say she is a uk 6 she had it and you probably wonder how?! Safety pins are the saviour the pins that can make it fit every women that wants to borrow it.

We met up at the parking lot and took the walk towards the park, while we where walking the clouds decided to sprinkle a few drops of rain, which of course got me a bit worried. We where lucky enough that it was only a few sprinkles nothing more. We had the perfect day with cloudy sky and good soft light. We went to a few of my favourite places in the park, where we captured the whole family and also Elle by herself. Very important to get those beautiful selfish photos that you will admire for many years to come and look back at. Admire how incredible your body can be and that you have created new life. We women need to love our bodies more and I hope that the session will make you feel even better about yourself. We all are beautiful.

But back to our day, we had a really good day it took a little longer then an hour which is normal. We had some lovely conversations and laughs while I captured some photos. I am so thankful for that Elle and he family wanted to book with me and that the shoot went so smooth and perfect.

I can’t wait to meet them again and getting to capture some more of their memories. The maternity session where just perfect. If you want to book don’t hesitate to contact me at the contact page. x

Tänk dig att ha en sån underbar kusin som ger dig en present till en gravid fotografering, den turen hade Naz som fick en underbar gåva att komma till min studio och få bilder tagna som kommer vara minnen för livet. Det kallar jag en underbar kusin. 

Vi hade en underbar stund i studion med lite lätt musik i bakgrunden och lite prat samtidigt som vi skapade dessa bilder. Vi tog fler men dessa var de som jag fick lov att dela med mig med er. Vilket jag tackar för, alltid lika kul när man får dela med sig av sitt arbete till världen och visa vad vi skapat tillsammans. Men självklart respekterar jag om man absolut inte vill att jag använder några bilder på hemsidan alls. 

Fotograferingen to ca en timma och Naz ville ha ljusa bilder som var enkla men ändå magiskt fina. Naz blev otroligt glad med resultatet vilket värmer mitt hjärta. Det är ju därför jag gör detta för att göra mina kunder nöjda och ha något till minne för livet. En tid i livet som är magisk och väldigt speciell och som vi lätt glömmer bort. Med dessa bilder kommer Naz kunna titta tillbaka och minnas sin tid som gravid och hur hon såg ut. Vackert med andra ord, Naz hade en underbar utstrålning och var bara 4 veckor kvar till bf datum. Nu väntar vi på att något ska hända och att jag får ett meddelande att deras lilla prinsessa är född. Då blir det att boka in en mer exakt dag och tid för en nyfödd fotografering. Vilket ska bli super kul, alltid lika roligt att få se en kund gravid och sedan ett par dagar eller veckor senare se de komma med sina underbara små bebisar. Det är något extra speciellt med det. 

Jag önskar Naz en säker och bra förlossning och att jag snart får detta underbara meddelande. Längtar redan till att få skapa fler bildminnen åt dem.
