Pippa's Maternity Shoot at home near Faringdon, Oxfordshire

I arranged Pippa's maternity shoot just 2 weeks before her due date, and it turned out we did it just in time as baby Kaitlin was born a week later!  The shoot was done at their home and incorporated a couple of outfit changes to give variety to the images and show off her gorgeous bump.  Here are a selection of Pippa's maternity images.

Maternity shoots are best done at 32-36 weeks and are often combined with a newborn booking.  If you are expecting a baby and would like some photographs to celebrate this special time please do get in touch to arrange a shoot or an informal chat.

Maternity shoot in Swindon, Wiltshire

Earlier this year I decided to expand my portfolio of work to include maternity and newborn shoots, or "Bump & Baby" as they are often referred to.  A call went out to find some willing models who would be happy to let me shoot them through maternity, newborn and 6 months.  My old school chum Diane who just happens to now live a few miles from me put me in touch with Sheena who was expecting her first baby last April.  Here is the first of her three shoots - the maternity session.  I especially love the ones where Sheena is wearing her saree.

Sheena gave birth to baby Aman in April last year and I'll have the shots from his newborn shoot coming up on the blog soon. They really are gorgeous so be sure to check back to see them!

If you are expecting a baby and are looking for a photographer to capture this special time please contact me or visit my website www.judicheckettsphotography.com for further information.  Parents can book individual sessions for their baby or  I have packages that cover maternity through to baby's first birthday.
