Great Expectations Doula – Portrait Session by Footsteps Photographer near RAF Mildenhall and Lakenheath

The Tribase area is lucky to have a strong and supportive community and this is particularly true if you are an expectant mother. Abigail, a local doula, contacted me as she was looking for updated headshots for her new website.

As she explained to me, “A Doula recognizes that women have the power to birth, whether it be a drug-free birth or medically assisted,  and helps the mother to access her own ‘Mother Nature’ throughout the childbearing year. A doula also provides emotional support, physical comfort measures, an objective viewpoint and assistance in getting the information she needs to make empowered decisions throughout her pregnancy, birth and postpartum.”

If you are pregnant or interested in playing a supporting role for expecting families, get in contact with Abigail and her team at Great Expectations Doula Service. They would love to hear from you!

With a springtime baby on the way, we knew we wanted to include the beautiful new blooms that were starting to appear.

Amy is a total earth mama and was in her element among the trees and fields.

I think the glow from the afternoon sun was a perfect match for the happiness Amy and Dustin exude over her growing bump.

Stunning Silhouette Maternity and Newborn Session – Footsteps Photography, Maternity and Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall and Lakenheath

This beautiful mama really wanted a silhouette shot. After seeing that perfectly round belly, can you blame her?

We did a combination of studio photography as well as location shots. Not knowing what to expect from February weather, we lucked out with a dry day though, as you can see, it was a bit windy!

I love how this custom red maternity dress looks with dark hair not to mention that it works just as well indoors as outdoors!

After much anticipation, Matthew Charles made his grand debut looking quite the dapper little man in his suspenders and bow tie.

Isn’t he just lovable?! For the rest of the session, we stuck with blues and browns to go along with the nursery decor.

Matthew Charles, you can come snooze in my studio any time you like!

Love Is In the Details Maternity & Newborn Session – Footsteps Photography, Maternity & Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall and Lakenheath

LaShieka, Malcolm and Semira will soon be a family of four and it’s safe to say they are all pretty excited about it!

They braved the cold and even a light dusting of snow for their session – a special treat for this part of England.

LaShieka was radiant in this coral dress and I love how it played off the golden sunlight and winter trees.

It wasn’t long after their maternity session that I finally got to meet the newest family member – Logan!

He was a bundle of love and rolls; we had to get some detail shots because babies don’t keep.

Any guesses on who this little guy might end up rooting for some day?

Logan was happy to be posed and styled while he snoozed away. He made my job easy!

He’s pretty kissable.

We finished up with some fun props and coordinating outfits. I love how the moon bed can be feminine or masculine depending on how it’s styled. And I think Logan has found his color – that burnt orange looks just gorgeous on him. Such a beautiful boy joining a great family. Congrats to the four of you!

Sharing the Love Maternity Session – Footsteps Photography, Maternity Photographer near RAF Mildenhall and Lakenheath

Jesse and Jennifer are eagerly anticipating the arrival of a precious baby and as if that wasn’t exciting enough, they chose to keep the gender a surprise! These two claimed to be awkward in front of the camera but all I can see is a couple who is kind, loving, and incredibly ready to welcome their bundle of joy into the family.

Jesse and Jennifer love nature so an outdoor session was a no brainer. 

We had a great time posing among the fields full of giant trees, gently waving grasses and a beautiful sunset.

Jesse and Jennifer, you were an absolute joy to photograph. Your baby is so incredibly lucky to be getting you as parents. I can hardly wait for the newborn photos!
