Maternity Photography Cornwall

Making new memories

I love when you request places to shoot that have been special to you. This beautiful Maternity shoot for instance was a special location for Carly and Paul because of childhood memories of camping at West Pentire.

The winter weather was beautiful, that bright sunlight dipping through the moody clouds. Perfectly matching the emotive storytelling in the images, because that is what photography ultimately is, telling your story. For Maternity Photography Cornwall based this shoot was such a beautiful one.

Natural and Candid

I could deeply feel the love that Carly and Paul shared. The anticipation for the arrival of their precious baby truly made my heart have little flutters. Sometimes you know when a couple just “fit”. They were truly a pleasure to photograph during this gorgeously lit evening.

I adore how this shoot just feels like one of those evening strolls that you set out on to soak up the sun and feel the peace before your bubble of two become three, before a new little soul turns your world upside down and inside out.

Why have a Maternity Shoot?

I sometimes have people ask what the point of a Maternity Shoot is when you will be having your photographs taken during a newborn session? Well I truly believe that this space before the baby comes is a truly pivotal time in your relationship. You are two, you have shared so many ups and downs but just together. This is the last time it will be just you for some time. It’s a time to celebrate, a time to commemorate, a time to remember. Also for Mothers it is such a huge change for you. Your bodies are no longer wholly yours and your beautiful bump is something to be in awe of.
