Specialist maternity photography in Harlow by award‑winning photographer Natalia Fernandes. Relaxed, natural‑light maternity photoshoots with professional hair & makeup and a designer wardrobe.
I specialise in maternity photography because I know how powerful and fleeting this time feels. As a mum and an award‑winning portrait photographer, I create calm, confident, and beautiful maternity photoshoots in my Harlow studio that celebrate the strength and tenderness of pregnancy. My approach is gentle and personal: I use soft natural light and considered studio styling to highlight the shape of your bump and the emotion of the moment. Sessions are tailored around what makes you feel comfortable and radiant. Many clients choose to use my collection of designer maternity dresses, silk drapes and dress‑styling to create elegant, timeless images—professional hair and makeup are available to help you relax and enjoy the experience. What sets my maternity sessions apart is a blend of technical skill and empathy. With years of experience photographing mothers‑to‑be, I understand how to pose, light and compose flattering images while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and supportive. Whether you prefer intimate, minimal portraits or more dramatic, flowing gowns and silk throws, I work collaboratively to shape a session that feels like you. Based in Harlow, my studio is a warm, homely space designed for expecting mothers. If you’d like a change of scene, outdoor maternity shoots are available on request for natural, open‑air images. Many families also opt for a bump‑to‑baby pathway—capturing your pregnancy and then returning for newborn portraits—so your story is preserved from bump to baby. Booking is straightforward and client‑focused: I’ll guide you through planning, help with wardrobe choices, and provide tips to prepare so you feel relaxed on the day. After the shoot you’ll receive a curated gallery of professionally retouched images to choose from. My aim is to deliver maternity photographs you’ll cherish—images that reflect how you felt during one of life’s most meaningful chapters. If you’re looking for a specialist maternity photographer in Harlow who combines technical expertise, creativity and a genuine understanding of pregnancy, I’d love to work with you.
