RADIANT MATERNITY DUBLIN
When Love Blossoms: Romantic Maternity Photographer Dublin
Choosing a Location you Love
Dublin offers beautiful locations for your maternity session, from pretty beaches and parks, to cobbled streets and City squares. Gems like Sandycove Beach, 40 Foot and Killiney Hill or the National Botanical Gardens of Ireland, bring timeless backdrops to your maternity portraits.
I offer year round seasonal mini family sessions at Blackrock and Seapoint, which can be perfect for maternity sessions as well. Cherry blossom in Spring and warm Autumn colour is a beautiful way to show off your pregnancy.
Inviting Romance into Your Maternity Portraits
Maternity photography is a celebration of love, and of bringing new life into the world. My sessions focus on capturing the love between the two of you, and your baby to be. This results in heartfelt images that you and your baby will cherish over the years.
Pregnancy portraits invite the look and feel of a couples, engagement or surprise proposal session, with the added emphasis on your baby being the star of the show.
Wear Something You Love!
Highlighting your pregnancy form is essential for beautiful maternity portraits! You can go for long, flowing dresses and overcoats, if it's sunny enough, especially in the second or third trimester when your shape is more defined.
I give wardrobe tips for all my family and lifestyle sessions. These help you to coordinate with the natural landscape around you, but keep the focus of the session firmly on you, your expression and gesture. Earth tones and neutrals can work well in nature, and layering natural textures like wool, suede, and silk.
When Dublin's weather is unpredictable (which it always is!), you can always choose an in home and garden session, where you can even strip off and show more skin!
Creating Vintage Inspired Maternity Photography
Expect to see a maternity gallery filled with warmth and honesty. Vintage inspired colour is gentle and focused on creating warm, ambient tones. My black and white photography is about creating depth and texture, with a looks like film feel.
Expect Timeless Keepsakes
Choose from Giclée pigment prints, framed prints, mounted print boxes and handcrafted albums and fine art books made in Yorkshire. These make beautiful lasting keepsakes for maternity photography. A family heirloom that your baby will grow up to cherish.

Highlight: Maternity at the Forty Foot in Dublin
A recent pregnancy session at The Forty Foot and Sandycove Beach. With its scenic rocks and sea views, the Forty Foot is a Dublin landmark. In a long, flowing white dress, her beautiful pregnancy form is highlighted, capturing the essence of this special time.
