This week we did our first maternity shoot in the studio at Jo Belfield Photography. This was a very special event for me as well as the mum-to-be, Natalie as this session also gave birth to our new working relationship with Cheshire and London based makeup artist Nicola Minshull. Nicola has a strong history of makeovers and I am a huge advocate of professional makeup prior to “landmark” photoshoots and we plan to be working more and more closely with Nicola in the future. Nicola put together a beautiful natural look for Natalie, the plum tones inspiring the matching fabric that we used to create a truly goddess-like feeling to some of the images. Other images focussed bought out the fun and excited elements of Natalie’s very special journey into motherhood. I am very grateful to Natalie for allowing us to share these beautiful and personal images.
