1.1 Maternity sessions when you are expecting your second baby are more like a family shoot.

I love working as a photographer in London. I get to meet people from so many different cultures and backgrounds, but love and family are the one thing that connects them all.

Being a London maternity photographer for this long means I often meet the same family again for their second or third child. A lot of my clients come back for their baby’s first birthday before I see them again for the next one, and by then there’s such a nice relationship, we’re comfortable with each other, we’ve become friends.

I’ve known this family for a few years. I photographed the first pregnancy in 2015 in Hammersmith Park and the newborn a few months afterwards, then their daughter’s first birthday and finally here comes the second baby!

This time we went to Clapham Common, SW London, and it was such a fun session because their daughter, nearly two by then, came along too.

It’s not just about the bump and mum, it’s about the relationship, the family bond. I’ve written more about that here: Why a Photo Shoot for a Pregnant Woman Is More Than Just a Bump Photo. You can see the same thing in another family maternity session on Clapham Common, where a little girl came along too.

There are so many images I love from this session, but this one probably shows what I mean best.

These images are so natural, no posing, just sitting and playing with each other.

There’s so much fun in going out to a park with a toddler. You have to keep them happy, and daddy often has the hardest job, but he’ll love it all the same.

And of course, there are photos with mum, the sweetest ones. These are my favourites.

If you like these photos and would love a similar experience, I’ll be delighted to help you capture this special time of your life.
