Outdoor pregnancy photoshoot | Harlaw Reservoir - Edinburgh

Lifestyle Maternity photosession


I had the pleasure of meeting Deppika and Abhijit at an outdoor pregnancy session at Harlaw Reservoir. Baby belly photos are an amazing souvenir from the period of waiting for little baby and I am always very happy that I can create them for you.


When we got there, the sky was covered with a fairly thick layer of clouds. Personally, I love clouds (not the stormy ones that announce sudden rain), but the bright ones that act as the perfect softbox for a beautiful soft light that's so flattering to your portraits.


Then the sky suddenly opened and the bright sun came out, Scottish weather is definitely unpredictable. We were lucky

Harlaw reservoir- Location


Harlaw Reservoir is a 5.5-kilometre loop trail located near Balerno, Edinburgh, Scotland that features a lake and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, running, and nature trips.


The open space, the lake, the hills in the background are perfect for photoshoots. In close proximity to the car park, we found many beautiful views and places suitable for beautiful portraits. See yourself in the gallery below.

What do you need to know about the maternity session with me.


Often, when you write to me asking about a pregnancy session, the following questions are asked: “Will we involve my husband somehow? Will he not be bored? ”

Of course, he will get involved and he will certainly not be bored. 

You need to know that the key to the success of such a session is proper communication and just conversation. We will talk, I will make you laugh, you both will kiss and cuddle and I will do my magic. During the outdoor pregnancy session, we can go to several places or take a short walk, so that the final photos are unforced and natural.   


I will only guide you gently to make it comfortable for you, "I will never make you do anything stiff or unnatural. I promise we will have a lot of fun! I will tell you how to position yourself in relation to the light, and I will reveal some tricks on what to do with your hands. All in such a way that the embarrassment disappears and the session becomes an adventure and a pleasant new experience.

It is a boy !!!


In a few days, this wonderful couple will hold their little boy in their arms, I can't wait to meet them again.
