Expecting a baby is such a precious time. You are doing an amazing job, growing your baby and keeping them safe. So take some time out to celebrate you, how incredible you are and the excitement of expecting a new baby.
Our maternity sessions are a beautiful, relaxing chance to enjoy a pampering. If you would like them, we have Hair and Make Up Artists available to treat you and help you look and feel your best.
Whether your maternity session is just for you and bump, or whether you would like your partner and/or whole family there, a Maternity Photography Experience is a wonderful way to celebrate you pregnancy and reflect upon the amazing miracle of growing a precious new life within.
Our Maternity Photography Experience includes:
- A pre-photography consultation to plan your session
- A bespoke, styled 90 minute photography session, including full use of our maternity dresses and fabrics
- A studio viewing and ordering appointment within 7 days of your session to select your images and products of your choice
- Personal service from enquiry until delivery of final products
- A beautiful 12x8” Art Block of your chosen image
- Timeless, beautiful moments and memories, captured in artwork, just for you

We will book your viewing appointment around 7 days after your photography session. This will be your chance to see your beautiful images, fully retouched and ready for you to view. We will watch a slideshow of your images and help you choose your Artwork to enjoy!
The time has come! During your photography session we will have lots of drinks and snacks for you to enjoy. We will take our time and enjoy ourselves! We will help guide you through a variety of poses and ensure that you are completely comfortable in front of the camera.
Around four weeks before your photography session we will arrange a call to discuss your shoot in full. We will plan your outfits, your hair and make up and help with any other questions or thoughts you might have.
When you book your due date into our studio diary, we will also book your maternity photo shoot in the diary. We will book this in for when you are around 32-35 weeks pregnant. (If you are later than this, do not worry! We will book your photoshoot for a time that suits you).
This is so exciting! You will receive your welcome pack (and a little gift) through the post shortly after you have booked. Take a good read of this and let us know if you have any questions.
Fill in the contact form below with your due date and contact details and Heidi will be in touch with you as soon as possible. We only take a limited number of due dates each month to ensure that we can provide every client with a premium, personal service.
It is best to book your maternity session as soon as you decide that you would like one! The ideal time to photograph your beautiful bump is between 32 and 35 weeks pregnant. The sooner we are able to book this session in the diary, the sooner you have something to look forward to and the more flexible we are able to be with our availability. Most of our mums book in at around their 20 week scan when they book their newborn session.
Our maternity photography experience lasts around 90 minutes, but we allow for two hours in the studio diary. This gives us plenty of time for a few different outfit changes and for you to settle in to the session. If you are having hair and make up done before the session, we will book this in 1 hour before the photography session is due to start.
It is lovely to include family members in your maternity session and we are always happy to encourage partners and children to take part. Your maternity session will allow for a maximum of 6 people. If you would like more than 6 people to be included in your session this will be priced upon request.
Alternatively, if you would like your maternity session to be just for you and your bump, don't hesitate to let us know. Our intimate photography experience is a beautiful celebration of you and your pregnancy.
We have a few different dresses and materials that are available for you to use during your maternity session if you would like. Around four weeks before your photography session we will arrange a call where we will discuss and plan the outfits we will use during your photoshoot. These can be our dresses and fabrics, your outfits from your own wardrobe or a mixture of the two.
Before your photography session we will discuss with you the outfits you are thinking of bringing and also the level of undress that you feel comfortable with during the session. We want you to feel completely relaxed and comfortable during your photography session and so will support you every step of the way.
Your maternity photography session is your opportunity to pamper yourself before your baby is born. It is a celebration of you and the miracle of the precious new life growing within! We thoroughly recommend taking the opportunity to really pamper yourself. We can highly recommend a couple of professional Hair and Make Up Artists who we work with on a regular basis. Or, if you would prefer, you can hire your own and they are very welcome to come and help you get ready in our home studio.
If you would like to use one of our recommended Make Up Artists, let us know and we will arrange it for you. It will cost an additional £65 to cover your hair and make up. This also includes them being around for the whole of your photography session to ensure that you look your beautiful best for the whole session.
Yes! We love to incorporate your special props into our sessions. We always encourage you to bring along an ultrasound image of your baby (preferably in a small frame) and some cute little booties or shoes. You could also bring a special soft toy or newborn outfit that you would love included in your photographs.
If you are having an outdoor maternity session and know the gender of your baby, you might like to bring along some colour coded helium balloons!
The majority of our maternity photography sessions take place in our home studio, just outside of Bath in Peasedown St John.
However, if you would prefer your session to take place outside, in a location of your choice, do let us know! We love photographing outside in the natural light just as much as indoors. We will travel up to 15 miles included in your session fee (additional travel is charged at 45p per mile). If you have a special location in mind, just let us know.
We will book your maternity session to take place between weeks 32 and 35 of your pregnancy. Ideally your maternity session will take place on a weekday in the afternoon but we know that this isn't always possible. We do have some flexibility around evenings and weekends but these do get booked up pretty quickly so do give us a call!

also felt very safe with her covid measures!"
"On the day of the wedding, they were great, never too in your face but present so that we felt completely assured they were there, snapping away in the background. They felt like friends at the wedding party who just happened to be taking photos."
"Heidi was so calm and patient getting the lovely pictures which wasn't easy. I am so pleased with my lovely artwork and highly recommend
Maple & Fleur."

They speak for themselves."
"I could not recommend Heidi enough! I was so nervous about the photoshoot. I actually almost cried when we went back to view the pictures they were amazing!"

The images are so beautiful and will make such a special keepsake.
Heidi was so friendly and calming around our baby and it was a really lovely morning."
