Chelsea-based maternity specialist Doris Heinrich offers relaxed, inclusive pregnancy photoshoots. Natural, vibrant bump photography that celebrates your journey to motherhood.
I specialise in maternity photography in Chelsea — a calm, inclusive approach crafted for expecting mothers who want natural, heartfelt images. With a degree in Photography and more than a decade behind the lens, I’ve focused my practice on telling personal stories through authentic, relaxed portraiture. Maternity is a primary passion for me: capturing the quiet strength, tender connection and joyful anticipation that come with pregnancy. My style is candid, warm and vibrantly natural. I favour light, simple compositions and moments that feel effortless rather than overly posed. Whether we shoot in your Chelsea home, by the river, or at a favourite nearby location, the goal is to create images that look and feel like you — comfortable, present and radiant. There’s no strict dress code: wear what makes you feel beautiful and at ease, and I’ll guide you gently through poses and prompts so the session flows naturally. Being a mum myself, I understand how precious this time is. That empathy shapes the way I work: patient, calm and attentive to comfort. I aim to build a relaxed atmosphere where laughter, conversation and little stories replace nerves — you’ll often find us chatting and sharing small moments that naturally translate into honest photographs. My sessions are inclusive and welcoming, celebrating every version of family and motherhood. The process is simple and collaborative. We’ll start with a chat about your vision, location and any styling ideas. On the day, I create a gentle, no-pressure photoshoot that mixes candid moments with a few considered portraits. Afterward I carefully edit the images to enhance colour, mood and warmth while preserving the genuine emotion of each frame. If you’re looking for a Chelsea maternity photographer who specialises in pregnancy and bump photography — someone who values authenticity, inclusivity and a relaxed session experience — I’d love to hear your story. Let’s capture this extraordinary chapter in a way that feels true to you and gives you images you’ll treasure for years to come.
