Drawing on her training with professional photographers in Shoreditch and hands-on experience working for a portrait company, Paula approaches pregnancy photography with care, warmth and an eye for timeless images that you’ll treasure for years to come. Why choose PN Photography for your maternity photoshoot? Paula treats each session as a celebration of pregnancy — a chance to capture the quiet strength and changing beauty of this brief chapter. Her style is relaxed and natural, focused on flattering, elegant portraits of the bump, as well as gentle, emotive images that reflect your personality. The studio is private, comfortable and just minutes from Brentwood High Street, with parking right outside and garden areas available for summer outdoor shots if you prefer. How Paula works with expecting mothers: She recommends booking around your 20-week scan so there’s time to plan, and aims to photograph maternity shoots at about 30 weeks when most clients feel their best. Sessions are typically 30 minutes to an hour and can be studio-based or at a location you choose. Paula’s calm, friendly approach helps you feel at ease in front of the camera — she creates a relaxed atmosphere, offers simple guidance on posing, and prioritises your comfort throughout the shoot. Paula’s motivation comes from a deep belief in the importance of photographs as lasting family memories. Having moved from a career in London to follow her passion for portrait photography, she loves meeting families and capturing those meaningful milestones.
