Sandra Cullen Photography

Hi — I’m Sandra Cullen. As a specialist maternity photographer based in Thamesmead (serving South East London), I focus exclusively on creating classic, tasteful portraits that celebrate pregnancy and the quiet, powerful beauty of this season of life. Becoming a mother myself shaped the way I work: I know how fleeting this moment is and how important it is to capture it in images you will treasure. Why choose me? I bring a calm, maternal approach to every session so you feel comfortable, seen and beautiful. My style is simple and timeless — elegant lighting, soft tones and considered posing so the photographs fit seamlessly into your home as wall art or heirloom albums. I aim to photograph the real you: the tenderness, the strength and the unique silhouette of your bump, rather than trendy gimmicks that will date quickly. How I work: every maternity session starts with a relaxed pre-session consultation where we plan the wardrobe, mood and any partner or family images you’d like. My cosy studio is equipped with a curated maternity wardrobe and comfortable dressing area so you can arrive ready to enjoy the experience. On the day I guide you with gentle, flattering poses and give plenty of supportive direction so even if you’re camera shy you’ll leave feeling confident. Professional hair and makeup styling is also available if you’d like to feel extra pampered. The experience is designed to be stress-free and memorable. Many clients describe the session as uplifting — a rare opportunity to dedicate time just to you before life changes. I’ll take care of lighting, styling and small details so you can focus on enjoying the moment. After the shoot we’ll review your carefully edited images together and advise on presentation options that suit your home and story. My work is rooted in warmth, technical skill and a real love of photographing pregnancy. If you’re planning a maternity photoshoot in Thamesmead or nearby areas and want timeless, heartfelt portraits, I’d love to talk and help you create something beautiful to keep for a lifetime.
