Sarah Banks Photography

I’m Sarah Banks — a Dartford-based maternity photographer with a passion for capturing the quiet, powerful beauty of pregnancy. My approach is modern and fresh: I aim to create images that feel authentic, personal and timeless. I specialise in maternity photography and place huge emphasis on making you feel relaxed and at ease so the real you shines through. Many clients choose a home visit because it’s comfortable and intimate; others prefer my home-based studio and unique garden studio setting. Whichever you choose, I give each maternity session my full attention — I only take one booking per day so we can work slowly, explore ideas and create calm, natural images without rushing. My sessions are creative and bespoke: I’ll work with your ideas, offer simple styling guidance, and bring props and textures that enhance the mood without overpowering the moment. I love photographing partners, children and pets alongside mum-to-be — those family interactions often create the most meaningful frames. If you’d prefer a more posed, fine-art look we can lean into that in the studio; for a softer lifestyle feel we’ll use natural light and simple setups at home or outdoors. My goal is always the same: to capture the emotion and connection that makes this chapter uniquely yours. What sets my maternity work apart is a mix of technical experience and a friendly, relaxed manner. I’ve been described as welcoming and patient, and I take pride in helping clients feel confident in front of the camera. I travel throughout Kent, London and the South East, and I’m happy to discuss ideas or answer any questions before your session so you feel prepared and excited. If you’re looking for a specialist maternity photographer in Dartford who values creativity, calm and beautiful storytelling, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s plan a maternity photoshoot that celebrates this incredible time in your life and gives you images you’ll treasure forever.
