TREMA BEFORE THE PREGNANCY SESSION OR WHY WE DON'T LIKE OUR PICTURES

Many of you don’t like being photographed or seeing yourself in those photos later on.

Remember, however, that it is different to pose for a random person, such as for a husband who does not like it as much as we do, a mother, grandmother, or mother-in-law, and something else entirely when working with a professionalmaternity photographer in Nottingham. Let me explain why, especially during the pregnancy session.

Maternity PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE ROLE OF TREMA THERAPIST

Every professional photographer needs to know how to deal with stage fright in people who pose for photos.

From my many years of experience, I can see that stage fright affects most of you at the beginning.

Exactly – only at the beginning. After a few minutes in my photo studio in Nottingham, even before I start shooting, you start to relax. You see that you are in good hands. The photographer is also a person to whom one can open up. My studio is not a cold industrial space but a cosy place where everyone will feel good. A short interview before a maternity photoshoot, newborn session, or a family session helps you loosen up and unwind.

SESSION AT THE CLIENT'S HOME OR OUTDOOR

If you think you feel best in the comfort of your home, that’s no problem either. I can perform sessions at home oroutdoors. It’s enough if we arrange the details in advance so that I can prepare the appropriate equipment and props for the session.

Sometimes it’s easier for you to relax outdoors, in our beautiful parks, castles, or forests. We can also organise that easily. There are no limits – just make up your mind! A pregnancy or family session in the forest, park, or castle is a fantastic way to create magical memories.

PROFESSIONAL maternity PICTURE SESSION, NOT RANDOM PICTURES

As I wrote at the beginning, a lot depends on who is behind the lens. Family members, no matter how much they love us, don’t necessarily know how to take great pictures. But a professional maternity photographer knows how to focus, position you in the best light, and provide the perfect retouching afterward.

Having access to a wardrobe of beautiful maternity outfits and a photo studio equipped with the appropriate props adds an extra level of professionalism to your experience.

PHOTO SESSIONS ARE NOT ONLY FOR MODELS

How many times have I heard from you: “Not because I’m too fat, too skinny, I don’t look pregnant, I am non-photogenic.” Not true.

Each of us has beauty that a skilled camera and photographer will bring out. Ordinary people stand in front of my lens, not models. A maternity photo shoot in Nottingham can transform your perspective.
