Capture two of life’s biggest milestones with my Bump to Baby Maternity & Newborn Photoshoot Package: the incredible ability of your body to create new life, and the arrival of your new baby into the world.
Your maternity photoshoot is the perfect opportunity to dress up in a gorgeous Maternity Gown (or three!), show off your baby bump and capture just how excited you are to meet your little one.
Your newborn photoshoot will capture your transition into parenthood, with images of the three of you together, each parent with baby and lots of baby on his or her own (showing off those teeny tiny toes and fingers!).
Both photoshoots will take place in my beautiful Bicester-based photography studio and are all-inclusive, which means you get to keep the images from each session as high resolution digitals.
Don’t worry if you don’t normally like having your photo taken – most of my clients feel the same! But this will be different to anything you’ve experienced before. You’ll be surprised by how much fun you have, and how relaxed, positive and enjoyable the whole process is.
All my sessions include detailed pre-shoot prep, such as helping you choose what to wear (and use of my stunning maternity gown collection), so you’re guided through every step and don’t need to worry about a thing.
In fact, my unique approach has led to me becoming the top-rated photographer in the county, with over 200 five-star reviews on Google. All you need to do is turn up and enjoy yourselves! 🙂
“As someone who doesn’t like being in front of the camera, Sarah made it so comfortable for us and the environment was very relaxing. The photos were absolutely amazing, we were blown away with how beautiful they turned out. We are so happy we chose Sarah to capture this special journey for us and we look for forward to the next shoot with our little baby girl! We highly recommend her for anyone who wants to capture special family moments.”

“From the moment I contacted Sarah, her approach and attitude was great… Everything was so relaxed on the day itself, she was lovely with our baby, and he was so happy and slept well throughout. She had thought of everything – colours of clothes to bring, hot water bottles to warm things, it was really impressive. And the photos – well, I simply love them and can’t wait to put them up! They will be treasured for years to come – thank you again Sarah!”

“I had the best experience with Sarah, doing a maternity photo shoot. I was honestly a bag of nerves, not a photogenic person at all! She made me so comfortable and confident, I honestly could not have asked for a better experience!! Looking forward to newborn photos in December.”

How do I book?
Get in contact as soon as you are ready to book in. Let me know baby’s due date and we can work backwards from there to book in an available date for each session.
The best time for maternity photoshoots is between the 30-35-weeks mark as after this time you might feel too uncomfortable to enjoy the shoot, and you never know if baby will make a slightly early appearance! If you’ve got a more petite bump, you may want to wait until the end of that range if possible.
Newborn photoshoots ideally take place between 5 days old and 2 weeks old – as soon as baby is feeding and settling we can have go ahead. How I work is to pencil in a date for two weeks after your due date, and then just let me know when baby arrives so we can amend the date if we need to.
I only take on a limited number of newborn shoots each month to allow for shuffling around based on baby’s arrival date. This means his or her place on my schedule is reserved, no matter if baby is early, late or perfectly on time!
Once we’ve agreed dates, I’ll send over my invoice for the session fee. On receipt of payment, your photoshoot is reserved.
We can then book in a time for me to call you and talk through all the details and find out more about what you’d like from the photos.
If you’d like to get booked in, or if you have any questions about the Bump to Baby Maternity & Newborn Photoshoot package, please get in contact:
“What can I say! Amazing! Sarah is so professional and friendly. My sister booked a maternity photo shoot for me as a gift and I’ve never done anything like it before. I needn’t have worried though as Sarah was so encouraging and professional the whole way through, she totally put me at ease. The photos also turned out so amazing and I can’t thank her enough for capturing such precious memories. We have a newborn shoot booked too which I’m so excited about! 10/10 recommend, Sarah is everything and more that you’d want in a photographer.”
