If you’re wondering when to book your maternity session, here’s the answer 👇

✨ 28–34 weeks pregnant ✨

That’s when your bump is beautifully defined, you still feel comfortable, and we can create relaxed, elegant portraits without rushing.

Autumn due dates book quickly especially September and Octobe, so I always recommend securing your session during your second trimester.

Pop your due date in the comments or send me a message and I’ll help you work out your ideal window 🤍

That first birthday sneaks up so fast. One minute they're curled in your arms, the next they're grabbing fistfuls of cake and grinning right at you.
Messy, joyful and unforgettable. The icing everywhere, the giggles, that proud little face. A whole year captured in one session.
Birthday spaces fill quickly, so if yours is coming up, let's get it booked.

Just a few newborn session spaces remain this month! 🤍

The first few weeks pass in a blur of feeds, cuddles and very little sleep. Before you know it, your tiny newborn has already changed.

If you've been meaning to book your newborn portraits, now is the time.

Send me a message to check availability ✨

If you’re due this summer ☀️ here’s when you should be thinking about your maternity session…
✨ The sweet spot is 28–34 weeks pregnant ✨
That’s when:
• Your bump is beautifully round and defined
• You still have the energy to move comfortably
• Swelling is usually minimal
• You’re not in the “any day now” stage

After 35+ weeks, things can feel heavier and baby can arrive earlier than expected and we don’t want to miss that window.

If you’re due in June, July or August, look at the graphic to find your ideal session dates.
The best time to book?
At your 20-week scan 🤍

Pop your due date in the comments or send me a message and I’ll help you plan your perfect window.
Because once baby arrives… it’s too late for bump photos.
