Motherhood shoots

Pricing
I charge a single flat rate for the shoot and that includes all the photographs from the shoot in high resolution. You will receive your edited images via my online gallery where you can download the images to your own computer, phone or tablet. The online gallery is ideal for sharing with family and friends. I also offer a printing service for high quality prints. 

How to book a session
You can book your session by filing in the contact form here

Is my deposit deducted from my session? 
Yes the £100 deposit taken at the time of booking is deducted from the session price. The full balance is to be paid 7 days prior to the session. 

When’s best to book a maternity session? 
I recommend booking in advance, so the shoot date is around 28-34 weeks into your pregnancy. At this time your bump is in full blossom and it’s before you start to feel too uncomfortable and tired.  

How far in advance shoot I book my newborn session?
If you would like a newborn shoot in the first 4 weeks of birth, please book whilst you are still pregnant to make sure you secure your shoot. After your 20 week scan is ideal. As we don’t know exactly when your baby will arrive I’ll block out session times and we can confirm an actual date once your bubba has joined us. I’ll work with you to make the experience as relaxed as possible. If your baby has already been born I sometimes fit in sessions at late notice, so please get in touch to secure your date. 

When should I book my family session? 
Family ‘Motherhood and mini-me’ sessions can be booked at any time. 

Where do the sessions take place? 
The sessions take place in your home and/or outside area depending on the season. 

How long are the sessions? 
I have three types of sessions, and they are all scheduled to run for 1.5 hours. (Newborn, Motherhood and Mini Me and Maternity).

What if my baby won’t settle? 
Please don’t worry about this, relax and your baby will feel those chilled vibes coming from you. My style is very natural, so I keep posed shots of your baby to a minimum. The session is totally baby-led and lasts 2 hours so we have plenty of time to get those fabulous shots. 

Do you use props? 
Not really, I think your baby is special enough and so I prefer to focus completely on them and all their precious tiny details. 

What should our baby wear? What should I wear?
I recommend that soft block colours work best so that the baby is the main focus. But these are your images so whatever you like. There are no rules!

How long do I wait for my images?
3-4 weeks. 

Do we get the digital files? And how many should we expect? 
You will receive all of the best images from the shoot. Anywhere from 25-60 photographs from our session, depending on your session type. 

Can we make our own prints?
Absolutely. The more photos on your walls, the better! I provide an online printing service directly from your gallery.

What payment options do you accept?
I accept BACS payment. Details are supplied on invoice for both initial deposit and full payment completion.
