Mums-to-be who choose to have a pregnancy portrait session seem to be at ease with their bodies and positively embrace their pregnancy. It's great to see a look of love, anticipation and hope beaming from their faces as they cuddle their bumps and to capture these genuine moments and emotions which produce irreplaceable keepsakes.
Pregnancy photography sessions are relaxed, friendly and feel more like catching up with your best friend kind of affair with lots of creative photography thrown in between. Nemi's sessions are welcoming and friendly and with funky, relaxing music playing in the background, she has found a way of making the mums and dads-to-be forget that they are in front of a camera and feel as if they are relaxing, in a hammock somewhere tropical and warm (at least that's how I feel myself).
A huge selection of organic herbal teas or freshly made coffee are also offered before the sessions begin and there is always a plate of biscuits which dads-to-be seem to enjoy very much. I order fresh seasonal flowers which are used to add a touch of elegance and quirkiness to each shoot. White drapes are also very popular especially as most pregnant ladies have quite a limited wardrobe.
The maternity photography sessions last around an hour and a half to two hours which allows plenty of time to take an array of stylish and contemporary posses. Nemi's photography studio is in Ealing, West London.
