Congratulations!
From one Mummy to another, a huge congratulations on your pregnancy! If you are looking for a Lincolnshire pregnancy photographer you’ve come to the right place!
It really is a miracle what our bodies are capable of and I feel so honoured that you are interested in Mama Bear Photography celebrating your pregnancy with you.
What to expect from your Maternity session
There are a few different styles of photos you will receive from this session, unless you prefer just one style of course. Relaxed and cosy ‘insta-style’ images, a selection of silhouettes and some traditional images in your favourite clothing, all of which is discussed in detail prior to your session.
Most people’s favourites are our new relaxed, laid-back, cosy session images that takes place on a comfy bed adorned with pillows and blankets where you will be encouraged to bring pyjamas, leggings, fluffy socks, vest tops and chunky jumpers and cardigans to get all snuggly. I’ll make you a cup of something warm in one of your mugs, you will bring baby books to read and lots of really lovely bits you have been given or collected for baby; a little baby gro or vest, booties, blanket, scan photos etc so I can capture all those details while you sit back and relax. This session has less formal posing and is perfect for those that are either a bit camera-shy or love the Instagram inspired style of maternity images.
The ideal time for your session is around 4-6 weeks before your due date, depending on how you are feeling, and how many babies you are expecting. All sessions are held in the secluded comfort of my private garden studio in Branston where you will be well looked after!

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT A NEWBORN SESSION?
I recommend booking your newborn session with me when you are around 20 weeks pregnant so we can pencil a date in the diary based on your due date. I only shoot a limited number of newborn sessions so it’s a good idea to book well in advance if possible!
