Justine at White Shadows Photography specialises in maternity photoshoots in Folkestone & Hawkinge. Natural, bump-focused pregnancy photography that feels calm, confident and timeless.
Specialist maternity photography in Folkestone by Justine at White Shadows Photography. As a mother of two and a photographer who truly understands the emotional weight of this time, Justine focuses on creating calm, timeless maternity photos that celebrate your bump and the start of motherhood. Why choose White Shadows Photography for your maternity photoshoot? Justine combines a gentle, maternal approach with years of experience working with expectant parents. Her sessions prioritise comfort, natural light and simple, elegant styling so the images remain timeless — not tied to trends. Whether you prefer a pared-back studio session in Hawkinge or a relaxed outdoor pregnancy photoshoot in Folkestone, Dover or the surrounding Kent countryside, she will craft images that feel personal and authentic. What makes her approach special: sessions are baby- and mother-led rather than forced poses. Justine believes in minimal, flattering posing that highlights the natural curve of your bump and the quiet connection you share with your growing family. She often works with neutral tones and soft fabrics to create serene, classic images, and she’s happy to incorporate meaningful items you’d like to include. How she works with you: from first contact to finished images the process is straightforward and supportive. After you enquire, Justine will discuss ideas and preferences, then send a practical prep guide and a short questionnaire to tailor the session to you — outfit suggestions, location choices and any props you want to bring. On the day she takes her time to make sure you feel relaxed and confident, offering gentle direction and plenty of encouragement. Her studio in Hawkinge offers a cosy, private environment ideal for maternity portraits, but she also enjoys shooting on location around Folkestone and nearby areas when clients prefer natural settings. While maternity is her specialist area, she also photographs families and can include partner or sibling shots so your pregnancy story is captured as a family milestone. Rooted in warmth, patience and a real love for documenting family life, Justine’s maternity photography aims to give you more than pretty pictures — it preserves a fleeting, powerful chapter of your life. If you’d like a maternity photoshoot that feels calm, considered and beautifully timeless, White Shadows Photography in Folkestone is ready to help you remember this moment.
