Maternity Photography
beautiful and natural maternity, pregnancy portrait PHOTOGRAPHY sydney
cringe free and studio free
One of my favourite things that has come from creating this business has been watching the growth of confidence of pregnant women wanting to capture their incredible bodies. You may feel bloated, sick, heavy, and not yourself, and the opposite of what you had imagined pregnancy to feel like. I imagined I would feel like a floaty earth goddess, but quick found out this was not to be the case.
So many women tell me they appreciated taking the time out of the crazy weeks leading up to the big day, taking an hour for themselves to do this, be still, slow down, be in their bodies, and capture this incredible journey they are on.
And once you get your photos back, I hear again and again women look at their body more objectively, less critically and appreciate the incredible thing it is doing, and see yourself the way I see you.
Your body is doing incredible things and those beautiful curves and shapes are a fleeting moment in time you will feel grateful you were able to pause, take a moment, and capture.

The FAQs
How do we get our photos?
Your photos are delivered via an online digital gallery. If you have selected the Unlimited package, download instructions will be sent immediately, otherwise you select your 20 images from that gallery.
How many photos do we get?
You will come away from a 1 hour session with around 100-150 digital images, all edited. Usually around 2/3 colour and 1/3 black and white.
How do I select my 20 images?
If you have opted for the 20 digital images package, then once you receive your full gallery, you will be able to create a favourites folder to create your selects.
Do you edit all photos?
Yes all photos you will receive will be edited and treated to look a certain way.
Whats your turn around time?
Within 7 days.
How do we book you?
It is best to drop me an email at hello@martinepayne.com to chat about what you are after and what location and timing works best. I will then send you an online booking form to complete.
Can you help us with planning?
Absolutely. I will advise you on how to achieve the best photos for your session, what locations work best and what time of day will give you the best light.
How far along should I be to have the shoot?
I would suggest as big as possible, without missing the date! So around 35 weeks is generally good.
Should we have it at home or outdoors?
Home Maternity sessions create a wonderful sense of comfort and intimacy and also lovely warm tones. We can use different spots of your house to give that sense of cosiness and nostalgia. Outdoor maternity sessions are beautiful if you select the right location at the right time! Chat to Martine about the best option for you. You may also choose to do your Maternity outdoors and your New Born session indoors.
