Heirloom motherhood photography in and around Bishop’s Stortford.
Creating art with your very own masterpieces.
Documenting your motherhood journey with gorgeous, natural portraits is such a gift to yourself, and your babies.
Having tangible proof of their Mama’s love will be something that will be treasured for generations, and long after you leave.
One day, your little one will want to look back and see you—to see the love and connection you shared in these early moments. This is such a wonderful chance to step in front of the camera and capture your unique journey through motherhood, and is perfect for babies after the newborn stage through to fully grown. A chance to document important milestones in your motherhood story, whether that be the end of breastfeeding, your baby’s first birthday, your toddler’s first step, your kiddo’s first big teeth, your teenager leaving for uni, or just because. You never need a reason to document your love, and it’s never too late to capture your babies being loved by their Mama.
“Shooting with Erin was so natural and easy, and she put my children at ease so well. In a very vulnerable time, she made me feel beautiful and lovely.
The photo shoot experience in itself was 5 star, but then we got the photos back. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. I cannot recommend her enough!
— Sarah
What to expect from your motherhood session.
As a Mama, we’re so often the ones taking the photos, but rarely in them ourselves.
Whether you’re embracing all the new changes that come with motherhood, or long into your journey, I’m here to document it in a way that feels like you. I’ll create a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere where you can just be yourself. If there are places that hold special meaning to you or any keepsakes you want to include, let’s make sure they’re part of your story. After all, these photos are all about capturing what matters most to you.
I offer cosy in-home sessions as well as outdoor photoshoots that are full of adventure, whether you’re in Hertfordshire, Essex, Cambridge or London (or even further afield!). I’m based in Bishop’s Stortford, but I’m always happy to travel. And if you’d rather have the studio backdrop look, I can bring all my gear right to your doorstep.
I know this time can feel overwhelming—motherhood is full of big changes, and it’s easy to feel vulnerable. I remember those feelings all too well. Even if you’re a seasoned pro, stepping in front of the camera for a stranger is daunting! I get that.
That’s why I take things slowly, giving us plenty of time during your session for breaks, outfit changes, and just to enjoy the experience. My shooting style is all about gentle guidance rather than stiff posing, so hopefully, it’ll feel so natural that you forget you’re even being photographed! If you’re unsure about what to wear or would like recommendations for brilliant hair and makeup artists, I’m more than happy to help.
Motherhood photography is so close to my heart. To assist mamas in creating art with their babies which can then live on for generations?
This is a beautiful calling.
Motherhood Sessions are charged at £300. They usually take up to an hour, and it is space and time for you to connect with your babies (whatever their age!), while I capture your love in a calm, safe environment.
They are always child-led, and there is no expection of behaviour- please leave that at the door. I am here to capture real life and real love, not a posed interpretation.
4 weeks after the session, you will receive the images in a private online gallery, where you will be able to choose and download your 15 favourites. There is also chance to purchase more individually, or the whole gallery if you can’t decide!
