Wanstead baby photographer
I know what you're thinking. You want to book a newborn photoshoot but there is one main reason that's stopping you from having one. It's the thought that "you are not ready".
"I am still carrying pregnancy weight"
"I don't feel good in my new body"
"I'm not fitting into my pre-pregnancy clothes"
"When I finally lose weight, I will book a photo session"
I understand that pregnancy can take its toll on you and your body - why wouldn't it? You just grew a baby from scratch and of course you will feel and look different as a result. In fact, it might take you a while until you feel like yourself again. Until you fit into your pre-pregnancy jeans and favourite clothes. But you should also know that the time when you are "ready" and "prepared" may never come. There will always be something that needs fixing. Or in your eyes you will feel like you are not looking good enough JUST YET.
I am here to tell you that this shouldn't matter as much as the intention of capturing those early days with your new baby.
Those early days of motherhood.
Of getting to know one another, and falling in love with your precious baby.
Your baby will never be this small again.
Your baby will soon turn into a walking and talking toddler and their baby-ness will be gone.
So I say - embrace being imperfect. Embrace not being "ready".
Hold on to this chapter in your life because it will soon pass.
Enjoy your baby as he/she is, right now.
And let me capture you all being completely natural, enjoying authentic loving connections, without added stress and awkward poses.
So when is the best time to book a photo session?
Right. About. NOW.
“I can't believe how beautiful all the photos came out. I have never felt great being photographed but I cherish every single photo that was taken. Currently struggling to pick one or two photos for our wall. They are all that good! Alina is also super friendly - she made me feel so relaxed and that helped because I was only 6 days postpartum and new to motherhood.”
