Balham Bumps & Babies Photography

I’m Juliet, the photographer behind Balham Bumps & Babies, and maternity photography is at the heart of what I do. Based in Furzedown and working across South West London, I specialise in maternity and bump photography that feels natural, sincere and timeless. I aim to capture the quiet strength, tender anticipation and unique personality of every expectant mother so you have images that will be treasured for years to come. My approach is relaxed and personal. I take time to get to know you — your comfort, favourite light and ideas — and I guide you gently through poses and moments so you always feel at ease. Whether you prefer soft, intimate portraits at home or moody, atmospheric outdoor shots, I craft each maternity photoshoot around you and your pregnancy. My goal is to create photographs that reflect the emotion of this time rather than stiff, over-directed poses. Why choose me for your pregnancy photoshoot? With a background in portrait photography and a love of capturing people, I focus on authentic connection and beautiful natural light. I bring experience, patience and a calm manner — qualities that new mums and partners often say they appreciate. I’m attentive to practical needs on the day, working at a gentle pace so you feel comfortable throughout the session. I also understand that every family is different; while maternity is my speciality, I happily combine bump shoots with family or newborn sessions as needed, creating a gentle continuity of images from pregnancy into early parenthood. I’m neurodiversity-friendly and aim to create a welcoming, flexible atmosphere for all clients. If you’re expecting and want maternity photos that truly reflect this special chapter, I’d love to talk through ideas, locations and what will make you most comfortable. Contact me to start planning a maternity photoshoot in Furzedown or anywhere across SW London — let’s capture the quiet joy and beauty of your pregnancy in images you’ll return to again and again.
