Glamourous maternity photography

by admin | Aug 18, 2015 | Family, Maternity, Newborn, Photography for women

MASSIVE THANK YOU 🙏 to everyone involved in yes MASSIVE THANK YOU 🙏 to everyone involved in yesterdays pumpkin pictures. I feel so grateful that so many people came out (and queued for so long with little eons!) and the kids were just so cute and amazing! But I’m also beyond grateful to everyone who helped out, it really would have been entirely impossible to do just by my self – totally spectacular community we have in little Harborough ❤️ We raised £375.15 (and €5 from someone international…) for the local Home Start Team! Huge shout out to Jess from the @ecovillageuk, Gemma from @ready_baby_go and Emma from @emmaofecofresh for all their help and support!!! Picture credit to Emma, who really should have been in the picture instead of me, not sure how I got that all wrong… I was a bit frazzled at the end… 🙃 Enjoy the weekend - I am looking forward to the weekend, what a week x . . . #community #gratiture #pumpkinpictures #dreamteam #harbslocal #marketharboroughmums
It’s today! Come down to the @ecovillageuk for y It’s today! Come down to the @ecovillageuk for your Instagram worthy pumpkin picture. It’s free, but give a donation to the Home Start team (we have a jar ready!) if you feel you can manage it. Gemma from @ready_baby_go will be helping me with meet & greet and getting your details so I can send the right pictures to the right parents ;) We will be there from 10am-12pm. Reminder for what to wear: Orange, dark green, yellow, cream, white and dark earthy reds will all look great. Try to avoid pink, purple and light blue. Aim for something without any cartoons or big distractions on the front 😉 . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughmums #marketharboroughliving #ecovillage #pumpkinpictures
I’m not one for jumping on all the awareness day I’m not one for jumping on all the awareness days, but baby loss awareness is a big deal, and I stood on a big stage recently talking to photographers about how we need to have more difficult conversations and not just show such a glossy Instagram feeds… and yet I present nothing but a glossy feed… 😒 It’s such a heart-breaking topic and we don’t want to worry all the exciting pregnant new mums, but in our attempt to protect the new mums are we making it hard for the mums carrying loss to bring up the conversation? Time and again I photograph rainbow babies and rainbow bumps, and often people don’t mention it until much later – but I promise I am always available for the harder conversations! I am always interested in your story! I am always available for including your memories of loss in your pictures ❤️ A constant reminder that we should never take our babies for granted, they are all miracles x . . . #blaw #blaw2021 #babylossawarenessweek #harderconversations

If you are wondering what to dress your little one in for their pumpkin pictures on Thursday, these colours will all work really well: Orange will obviously look great picking up the colours of the pumpkins, but yellow, darker greens, cream, whites and dark/burnt red tones will also be great. Colours that won’t work so well are: Pink, light blues and purple. In fact this will work for pumpkin pictures anywhere! See you at the @ecovillageuk on Thursday 10am-12pm 🍂🙂 . . . #marketharboroughmums #pumpkinpictures #autumn2021 #marketharborough #ecovillage #whattowear #leicestershirephotographer
I have no commercial/branding availability left in I have no commercial/branding availability left in October, and only one or two spaces in Nov. I still get asked a lot about branding work, but to avoid disappointment you really do need to book this in at least a month in advance! I don’t do any branding work at weekends, and I don’t tend to book anything in for December either as I prioritise these times for families. So really now is the time for plan for 2022… 😉 . . . #harbslocal #brandingphotography #personalbrandingphotography #marketharborough #planahead

And mums can be in the pictures too if your little one is happier that way! It’s next Thursday the 14th from 10am-12pm at the @ecovillageuk . It’s all free, give a donation to the Home Start Team if you can manage it 😊 Are you planning on coming along? No booking just pop in? . . . #marketharborough #womensupportingwomen #marketharboroughmums #pumpkinpictures #autumn2021
