Glamourous maternity photography

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

I firmly believe that having children is the biggest life changing event for women, and hence photographing bumps is a delightful part of my work, and it just got a lot more glamourous! I continuously invest in professional photography training, and earlier this year...

We’re ready, today is the Start back Stronger ev We’re ready, today is the Start back Stronger event! Unlike back in January, this time the goal setting module is delivered online, so delegates will have to sort their own biscuits, but we are ready none the less ;) I’m really excited to get the rest of 2020 planned out in the session with @nickymassonglobal , and also really looking forward to photographing everyone this afternoon! Have an inspiration week all :) . . . #mumpreneuruk #mumpreneurlife #workingmum #covid19 #newtimes #mumsinbusinessuk #mumsinbusiness #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #leicestershire #goalsetting #planningsession #businesssucess #businessplanning #selfemployment #2020planning #savvybusinessowners #personalgrowth #inspiredliving #businessskills #reachyourgoals #laptoplifestyle #businesswoman #femalebusinessleaders
There has been quite a bit of “take the kids to There has been quite a bit of “take the kids to work” this week, and next week will be no better! We are filing this little phase under “early work experience” ;) But seriously, I’m speaking to more and more mums now who are expected to work full time from home, with kids around, and it makes me mighty grateful that we both have a lot of flexibility and sometimes the boys just have to come along and hang out at Graftons… Have you had to take your kids to work with you? Everything is just so different, but just a few more weeks and it will be the summer holiday… not that we will feel a huge difference… Have a fantastic weekend! . . . #takeyourkidstowork #takeyourkidstoworkday #mumpreneuruk #mumpreneurlife #workingmum #covid19 #newtimes #mumofboys #mumsinbusinessuk #mumsinbusiness #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #leicestershire

Yes it’s heavy and you don’t feel your best, a Yes it’s heavy and you don’t feel your best, and you don’t feel like being photographed! But, it is also an opportunity, of a lifetime in fact! Who do you know who’s pregnant, we have one lonely spot available for tomorrow ;o) You just pay your £10 donation for the MIMS team, and then everything else is free, I simply send you your digital files. And this marks the 1st birthday of the Bump Hour events, which means we will have photographed 49 bumps (unless we get one more, and have a full house of 50 bumps in a year!), I think that is good going! . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #kettering #kibworth #corby #Oundle #leicestershire #bumppictures #maternityphotography #newbaby #pregnancy #

Does it feel like a reflective kind of time for yo Does it feel like a reflective kind of time for you too? I have a strong sense that I don’t want to go back to the business I had! I think I want to make some (big?) changes, but not exactly sure what. Are you making any changes to your life and business on the back of all this? How do you know which changes to make? I’m really looking forward to Nicky’s goal setting session next Monday, it will make me sit down, focus and really think about the next six months. It’s going to be a reflective kind of week I think :) . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #personalbranding #personalbrandingphotography #personalbrandingphotographer #leicestershirebusiness #mumbiz #freelancingfemales #womeninbusiness #fempreneurs #mumpreneurs #womensupportingwomen #leicestershire #reflection #changescoming #newtimes #planning #goalsetting
There are just 3 spaces left for the Start Back St There are just 3 spaces left for the Start Back Strong pictures 6th of July, and the Early Bird offer ends on Sunday. That means the price goes from £40 to £60 ;) I am reliably informed that some delegates have secured hairdresser appointments in time for the event – people there is hope! I have had several people asking if I can “hold” a space for them, and unfortunately I am just not able to offer this – when the spaces are gone they are gone, and you do need to book your space online… Have a fantastic weekend! . . . #businessevent #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #personalbrandingphotography #personalbrandingphotographer #brandingimages #leicestershirebusiness #leicestershire #northamptonshire #kettering #ketteringbusiness #kibworth #corby #wistow
10 years ago, I think this would have been an out 10 years ago, I think this would have been an out take – now it’s one of my favourites from the session, that laugh makes me smile. Before I had kids, I was only interested in “perfect” pictures, now I’m all about the connection and the emotions! I guess, now I shoot the images that I would like to have :) There is just one tiny little place left for the Bump Hour event next week. There won’t be another event until September. . . . #maternityphotographer #maternityphotography #bumphour #emotions #connections #mums #newbaby #pregancy #newmum #secondbaby #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #leicestershire #kettering #kibworth
This was the final shoot I did before lockdown, fe This was the final shoot I did before lockdown, feels like such a long time ago! Anyway, it was an important session, because Sue had recently joined the legendary @marieforleo B-school, so she will need great images! You might have seen some of these on Sue’s social media, but I have also added a few more to a blog post on my website. Ps: If you would like some fresh new images, but don’t feel quite ready to commit to a full shoot, come along to our Start Back Stronger Event on the 6th of July. As a one-off, due to the social distancing, these images are on location instead of in the studio, a rare opportunity. . . . #harbslocal #marketharboroughliving #personalbranding #personalbrandingphotography #personalbrandingphotographer #contentcreation #socialmediacontent #leicestershirebusiness #mumbiz #freelancingfemales #womeninbusiness #fempreneurs #mumpreneurs #womensupportingwomen #leicestershire
How do you feel about Zoom by now? Today I’m del How do you feel about Zoom by now? Today I’m delivering some training on brand videos in the Leicester MIBA group, so it will be a morning of Zoom. I had too much Zoom for a bit, and stepped away, but after that little break, I feel happy about being back today :) And then planning on spending the rest of the day outside, forecast looks great - again! Ps: This image is a selfie, taken with a remote control, but if you are bored of trying to take your own personal branding images (it is a bit of a faff, and typically doesn’t come out quite right!), have a look at the Start Back Strong event on the 6th of July! . . . #onlinelearning #lockdownlearning #zoom #lifeonzoom #personalbranding #brandvideo #brandfilm #contentcreation #videocontent #socialmediacontent #leicestershirebusiness #mumbiz #freelancingfemales #womeninbusiness #fempreneurs #mumpreneurs #womensupportingwomen #leicestershire

Monday 6th of July! That’s the date for the Star Monday 6th of July! That’s the date for the Start Back Stronger Event I’m hosting with @nickymassonglobal – somehow, I posted the event details yesterday, without the date! I clearly need more sleep! Is that just me? Thank you to those who booked already, we can’t wait! I also had several messages about the price. It is £40 per session if you book both the goal setting and the personal branding images together, or £45 if you just book one. That is less than half price of what we usually charge for these services, so a total bargain, and this will go up by 50% at the end of the month ;o) Have a wonderful chilled weekend – I’m exhausted after this first week back working, how about you? ohh, and the link to the full details is in my bio
