What happens if the weather changes?

Outdoor maternity sessions are planned with flexibility. If the conditions are not suitable for a comfortable and rewarding session, we can agree a different date or consider another setting.

What should I wear for an outdoor maternity session?

Choose clothing that feels comfortable and reflects how you would like to be photographed. Simple shapes and colours often work particularly well outdoors, and Paola can offer guidance if you would like help deciding.

Can my partner or children join the session?

Yes. Your maternity portraits can be centred on you, shared with your partner, or include your children. If very young children are involved, we can also consider whether an at-home session may offer an easier setting for the family.

How do we choose the right outdoor location?

The right location depends on the atmosphere you want, the season and how the place fits into your London life. A neighbourhood setting such as Wandsworth Common, Clapham Common or Eel Brook Common can feel particularly personal when it is already part of everyday life. Battersea Park offers more variety and structure, while Richmond Park creates a more expansive, landscape-led setting. Sometimes the most meaningful location is not the grandest one. A familiar local park can say more about your family than a famous central London backdrop.

How much does an outdoor maternity photoshoot cost?

Outdoor maternity portrait sessions last around 90 minutes. The session fee is £135 on weekdays and £155 on weekends and Bank Holidays. Your session fee secures your date and includes the photoshoot, Paola's direction, carefully shaped light, individual professional refinement before viewing, and one finished photographic portrait, beautifully presented in a substantial 16×12-inch archival mount. After your private viewing, any additional portraits and printed pieces you choose are purchased separately. There is no minimum purchase.

Why Outdoor Maternity Portraits Matter

A Pregnancy Portrait With Purpose.

Pregnancy changes quickly. A maternity portrait gives you something more lasting than the memory of how this moment looked: it gives you a way to recognise yourself within it.

For many mothers, this becomes the beginning of a longer family story told through newborn, baby and family portraits.

For those who missed the experience with an earlier pregnancy, it can also be a meaningful way to begin now.
