Maternity photography East London
I photographed this pregnant mama-to-be one winter morning, on her due date. We both jokingly said the baby could arrive any minute (even though we all know babies don’t tend to rush and first pregnancies are usually longer and go past the due date).
We wrapped the session up, I wished the couple good luck and went home.
Little did I know that their baby boy was born later that night!
So when I say this maternity photoshoot was special - I really mean it. We captured the last moments of waiting, and the last moments before the new adventure. And I sure was glad to be back in their house not long after, this time for their newborn photoshoot with their tiny baby boy.
Now, chances are this may not happen to me again (capturing a pregnancy, hours before baby arrives), so I definitely feel privileged to witness this transformation. And what a wonderful keepsake for the family!
“Oh my goodness! I love these photos so much I’m crying! Thank you! I’m so so glad and grateful to have been able to book you in for this photoshoot right in the nick of time and to have these gorgeous photos of the last few hours before his arrival! What precious memories. Many many thanks Alina, I’m totally delighted!”
