Maternity Photography FAQs

  • How will these photos help me feel empowered?
    This session is all about celebrating who you are. The experience itself allows you to step out of your comfort zone, embrace your strengths, and see yourself in a new light. The images will be a lasting reminder of your confidence, beauty, and individuality, giving you a tangible way to reconnect with your inner power whenever you need it.
  • I’ve never done a photoshoot before. Will you guide me with poses?
    Absolutely! You don’t need any prior experience. I will guide you every step of the way, helping you with poses and angles that flatter you while ensuring you feel comfortable and empowered throughout the session.
  • What should I wear for an empowerment photoshoot?
    Wear whatever makes you feel most confident and powerful, whether that’s a bold dress, casual attire, or even something more intimate. We can discuss options that fit the mood and message you want to convey, ensuring your wardrobe reflects your personality. And don't forget that also get full access to my client wardrobe which contains over 40 custom made pieces.
  • What is a POWERSHOOT?
    Poweshoot is a photoshoot experience designed by me to celebrate the strength and individuality of women which allows them to reclaim their power. In these sessions I create safe, comfortable environment where each woman can express her authentic self. We collaborate on styling and poses that reflect your inner confidence and power... I make sure the entire experience feels like a journey of self-discovery and self-expression, with every shot capturing not only your beauty but also personality. It's about celebrating who you are and the journey that got you to this point, unapologetically.
  • Do you share unedited files?
    All images will be carefully selected and edited by me, I do not share unedited files.
  • Do you offer professional retouching?
    Yes absolutely, all photos are edited and retouched by me. As a portrait photographer with years of experience, I believe professional retouching is a tool that enhances the natural beauty already present in every image. It’s not about altering who you are, but about refining details—like adjusting lighting, softening blemishes, or enhancing colors—so the final photo reflects your best, most polished self. Retouching doesn’t take away from authenticity; it highlights your strengths while maintaining the essence of who you are.
  • Do I need professional hair and makeup for the shoot?
    For photo sessions in nature I would suggest going for more natural look, depending on how you want to represent yourself. General rule would be that less is more.
  • What is the purpose of a brand photoshoot, and how will it benefit my business?
    A brand photoshoot creates a cohesive visual identity that communicates your brand’s values, personality, and unique offerings. It provides you with custom, high-quality images that can be used across websites, social media, marketing materials, and more, helping you connect authentically with your audience and stand out in your industry.
  • Do you offer guidance on styling and locations for the shoot?
    Yes, I offer comprehensive guidance on styling, wardrobe, and selecting locations that reflect your brand. Whether it’s an on-location shoot or in-studio, I’ll help create the right setting that enhances your brand’s personality and message.
  • What can I expect from a brand photography session with Monagraphs?
    We create a mood board to bounce off ideas and to ensure that we’re both on the same page.​ We talk through your values, ethos and your ideal client to make sure we’re speaking to them directly. I want to help you to be seen, and I want to see your business grow. We discuss brand colours, outfit choices, we have fun going through my Client Wardrobe to ensure that we have a well-organised tight schedule for your shoot day. It’s your shoot day... We shoot in multiple locations to ensure a variety for your marketing channels. We wrap up the shoot and you receive over one-hundred images.
  • What if I feel very self conscious in front of the camera?
    As a brand photographer with years of experience, I understand that feeling self-conscious in front of the camera is completely normal. My priority is to create a relaxed and supportive environment, where we move at your pace. Before we even start shooting, we’ll have a conversation about your vision and any concerns you might have. During the session, I’ll guide you with poses that feel natural and comfortable, and we’ll work together to highlight your strengths in a way that feels authentic to who you are. My goal is to make the experience fun and easy, so you can focus on enjoying the process and feeling confident in your brand representation.
  • What kind of images will be included in a brand photoshoot?
    This depends on your business and goals, but it can include product photography, lifestyle images of you or your team in action, behind-the-scenes shots, or detailed close-ups of your work. The goal is to capture a variety of visuals that tell your brand’s story across different platforms.
  • How do you ensure the photos align with my brand’s identity?
    We begin with a thorough consultation where I learn about your brand’s story, target audience, and aesthetic. We’ll discuss colors, styles, and moods that match your brand, and I’ll guide the process to ensure every photo is consistent with your brand’s identity and message.
  • How can I use the images from the brand photoshoot effectively?
    The images are versatile and can be used across your website, social media, email campaigns, advertising, and print materials. I’ll work with you to ensure the photos fit your specific marketing needs, empowering you with a consistent visual presence that strengthens your brand recognition and engagement.
  • How do I book?
    You can get in touch via online contact form on my website or you can DM me on social media. Let me know if you have a date or location in mind. I will then schedule a non commitment Discover Call on Zoom where we can get to know each other a little better. Once you have decided that I am the right photographer for you, £100 SESSION BOOKING FEE will secure your session and the remaining balance will be paid on the day of the session.

    Session Booking Fee Includes: my knowledge and experience unique session just for your family, no two sessions are ever the same storytelling creative ideas my travelling time (up to one hour) professionally edited images in my own unique style use of the highest quality of photography equipment professional printed products, not something you could get via high street venders Session Booking Fee is NON REFUNDABLE
  • How long will it take?
    Session length guidelines are provided with each package, however I will work with you for as long as it takes to get the most perfect set of images. If we need to stop and take a little break for feeding, peeing of just giving the kids a little break..... we will. Motherhood sessions are very much child led and we will stop once they have had enough.
  • Can I bring my pet to the session?
    Absolutely, I am a huge animal lover so all pets big or small are welcome during the session. Do however bear in mind that unless you want your pets to be in evert frame, you might want to consider bringing someone else along to look after your fur baby until we finished the session.
  • Do you offer Mini Sessions?
    I do not offer MINI SESSIONS as I do not like putting time restrictions on individual shoots and make my clients feel like they are on a conveyor belt. I want every session to be special and every client to get my undivided attention, therefore I never shoot more than one session on any given day. I want to give my very best every single time and create bespoke experience for my clients.
  • What should we wear?
    We can chat and work together to make the best selection for your session outfits. I would suggest to avoid clothing with patterns or logos; neutral or earthy colours tend to work really well in nature setting. Its also good to have layers to add some variety to the shoot.
  • Do you offer prints?

  • When is the best time to take maternity pictures?
    The best time to schedule your maternity photo session is typically in the third trimester, between 26 and 34 weeks, or around the 7th and 8th months of pregnancy. During this period, your belly will have a lovely, pronounced round shape that's perfect for photos. However, this timing can vary depending on your body and how you’re feeling.
  • How long will the session last?
    Maternity Photo session will last for about 2 hours (this includes outfit changes and breaks where needed) however it might take a little longer and you can be sure that I will keep taking photos until I am sure that we created stunning images you will cherish forever.
  • What should I do to prepare for the session?
    Please ensure that your hair and makeup is done before you arrive (less is more and gentle light makeup looks best in nature setting). Make sure you bring comfy non slip footwear, warm jacket, cup with a hot drink and some snacks. We will be shooting outdoors so we want to be prepared for the weather.
  • What makeup do you wear to a maternity photo shoot?
    For a maternity photo shoot, it's best to go for a natural and fresh look with your makeup. Think of enhancing your features rather than masking them. A light foundation or BB cream, a bit of blush to add a healthy glow, and neutral eyeshadows work wonders. Don't forget a good mascara to make your eyes pop and a soft, natural lip colour. The goal is to look like the best version of yourself, so you feel confident and beautiful in front of the camera.
