your love filled maternity Experience
capturing your growing anticipation
I remember watching in awe as my body changed throughout my pregnancy and the strange and extraordinary feeling of my baby moving and kicking inside of me. Now it's your turn and I am so excited for you!
Whether you're starting your family, or growing your family, your whole world is about to transform and your little baby will soon be your everything. But right now is the time to take pause and celebrate you, your strength and your beauty, and to document this sacred time. Once your baby arrives you'll be surprised how often you might miss your growing bump.
Just as every pregnancy is a unique experience your maternity session should be too. This means that your maternity session can be casual and intimate, creative or adventurous, in your own home or outdoors on location. It can be just for you or shared with your partner and family. Whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
From beginning to end, your session will be natural, relaxed and heartful. When we part ways we will have created a beautiful record of your pregnancy.

Your BUMP.
frequently asked questions
I recommend you book your maternity session for 30-36 weeks gestation as you will have a beautiful sized bump (and be less likely to go into spontaneous labour). I also love capturing your other pregnancy milestones like your announcement, half-way celebration or gender reveal.
A session typically lasts about 60 minutes, but if there’s a wardrobe malfunction or a meltdown, we’ll be ok. I am totally flexible and will stay until I know I’ve got a ridiculously good selection of images for you. It's best to make sure you're not in a hurry either so make sure you add some buffer time before and after your session.
Yes! You can choose to have your maternity session solo, with your partner and/or with your children. Whoever you invite to your session, you and your bump will always be the focus. I love animals and your pets are welcome to join, however, I don't guarantee specific shots. You can invite grandparents and other members of your extended family to your session too for a small cost. We'll chat about how this will work when we plan your session.
If you already have a vision for your session I'd love to hear it. Whether you want a specific theme, props, or particular poses, we will work together to create a personalised experience that reflects your unique style and personality. I am always open to trying something different and creative.
No problem! Every home is perfect to me. I can move clutter and I may even move furniture. We will work together to make the best of the space you have. So long as you have a window or a door we can make beautiful photos.
Jess made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera, letting us just be our silly selves, but also helped to pose us in a way that was so natural to us.

You can expect your full gallery of images no more than 30 days after your session.
After receiving your images you'll have the opportunity to purchase prints and other products with a professional print lab through my online store.
after your session
Before we get started we'll chat about any last-minute ideas and requests, and quickly go over the details.
If your session is at your home, I'll ask you to give me a tour so I can see the spaces with the best natural light.

I will send you my Prep Guide with information on what to expect and how to prepare. You'll also get a style guide and full access to my Client Wardrobe along with an exclusive discount with MamaRentals.

"I cannot thank Jess enough for capturing such beautiful memories in both my maternity and newborn shoots. Jess has been friendly and approachable from the very first conversation. My husband and I felt very comfortable with Jess throughout both of our sessions. The photos we received from both shoots were absolutely beautiful..."
