Your Kind words
Valentina, invited us to her beautiful home to create some amazing memories of my beautiful bubba. She has a wonderful warmth that my son took to immediately. Being first-time parents and having no clue to most things, she was very patient with me, in choosing the right package. It’s been on my to-do list to write this review but baby, nappy and life has taken over. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Valentina provided us with a beautiful loving experience, and the photos are just perfect in every way.
Xx thank you xx
I had a positive experience from beginning to end. From the initial contact to the end, Vale’s communication was great - she responded immediately and provided detailed information.
During the photoshoot, she was welcoming and made sure the room was cool as the weather was 39/40 degrees.
She did not rush us during the photoshoot whilst our LG was struggling with the weather.
The outcome of the photoshoot was great. We loved the pictures as they reflected our love for our LG.

We had a first-class experience doing a newborn shoot with our twin girls. This was our second shoot with Valentina as she did our eldest’s newborn shoot in 2017 and we were very happy to book her again. Valentina was extremely calm, patient and professional and took some amazing pictures for us. She also managed to include our very busy toddler for some of the shoot and has produced a beautiful family album for us and the grandparents. Many happy memories. Thank you Valentina.

Some sentences hit you right in the heart.
Because they’re not just words, they’re echoes of things you’ve felt.
And suddenly, you don’t feel so alone.
These quotes are from Milk Tales, a collection of real breastfeeding stories that honour the full emotional landscape of motherhood.
Which quote do you connect with most?
Or is there a sentence you wish someone had said to you in the early days?

When I photograph an expecting mother, I don’t just see a bump.
I see a woman on the edge of becoming.
Becoming someone new.
Becoming more herself.
Each photo tells a story of strength, tenderness, and transformation.
And some stories are too meaningful to be left on a screen.
That’s why I believe in printing them.
Holding them.
Passing them down.
This album isn’t just for her, it’s for the child she’s carrying.
For the future hands that will open its pages and say,
“This was you. And this was me, becoming.”
Wouldn’t you love to create your own?
Get in touch to start planning your maternity shoot, or explore the timeless printed products I offer.
A boudoir workshop wasn’t on my radar a few years ago.
But now, it feels like the most natural next step.
As I grow my empowerment portrait work, this experience expanded how I see and photograph women.
We are layered. Emotional. Strong.
And this style of photography brings all of that to the surface.
I left feeling deeply inspired and ready to explore this vision even more, including with my maternity clients.
Because sometimes, one shoot can shift everything.
Thank you @magdalena_sienicka for introducing me to this form of art, so sensual, so powerful, so needed.
I’m now looking for a woman who’d love to model this concept for me.
Excited to try something bold and beautiful?

Your daughter will look at these photos one day.
Not just to see how you looked, but to understand how powerful you were.
She’ll see:
🌿 The strength it took to grow her
🌿 The tenderness you felt imagining her with Dad
🌿 The woman you were becoming
🌿 The love that already existed
This is why I believe in printed photos from your maternity shoot.
Because 20 years from now, when she asks about her beginning, you won’t just have stories, you’ll have proof.
Proof that this moment mattered.
Proof that she mattered.
Proof of the love story that started before birth.
A maternity photo session isn’t just for today.
It’s a love letter to your future family.
What legacy do you want to leave behind?
What would you want your child to know about this time?
So many mothers told me the same thing in different ways:
“I wish someone had said this sooner.”
That’s what Milk Tales is for.
A soft space for truths that don’t always get spoken out loud.
About feeding, yes but mostly about feelings.
About being a mother and being human.
If this speaks to you, the book is waiting for you too.
Available on amazon.

Stop waiting for the perfect time to book your maternity session.
I’ve photographed women at 26 weeks, 30 weeks, 38 weeks and beyond, yes I was worried waters could have broken any minute!
But every single time was exactly right.
Because it’s not about how big your bump is.
It’s about how big this moment feels.
Your maternity shoot should feel like a celebration of who you are, what you’re carrying, and where you’re going.
Don’t let the calendar tell you what’s “right.”
You know what’s right for you.
Let’s tell your story, exactly as it is.
