Being a Sydney Maternity Photographer is a privilege, as I have the chance to witness the growth of new life and the joy of the mother-to-be.  I try to select the style that suits each individual woman, consulting with them on their preferences. I was honoured to photograph this beautiful mother-to-be.   Sharon’s pregnancy was very special as she had tried for quite a while for this much loved first baby. I captured Sharon’s anticipation as she waited for the birth of her first child in the classical pose that showcases her natural beauty. This beautiful portrait, in which Sharon is wearing a gorgeous apricot dress, is one moment in time that can be displayed as a work of art for all to see. Sharon’s excitement and love for her unborn child is also photographed in the artistic style by using the texture of the fabric that is draped across her.  I decided to become even more creative by wrapping Sharon in a clear tulle to give the textured, effect of a painting. I love the close up body shots in a maternity session where the physical bond between mother and baby can be seen and remembered. The black and white contrast images show this wonderful stage of life in timeless portraits.

For some ideas about what to wear for your maternity session, I have put together an inspiration board on pinterest with links to different vendors supplying maternity outfits:  PINTEREST MATERNITY BOARD
