Ella, Chris & bump: cwm idwal, snowdonia, North Wales
Combining a maternity shoot with the magic of Snowdonia in the autumn is so...well...magical! I mean, just look at these photos - talk about POP! Ella and Chris got in touch late in October because they dug our Instagram so we didn't have much time before the autumn colours made way for the beautiful but bare winter. We arranged a day in November and met up in the Ogwen Valley where we spent a lovely afternoon with Ella, Chris, the baby bump, and Charlie the chihuaha. Ella and Chris knew that they wanted something beautiful with which to remember the pregnancy but they also know, as all of us do, how difficult it can be to get a maternity shoot right. Pregancy is a magical period and if we're going to document it, we want to do it justice.
You'll notice our earlier use of the word magic. Well, let's just use that word again. Magic. Seriously. The light and the leaves, the forest and mountains, the lake, the puddles and the wellies. You'll see that Ella, Chris and adorable Charlie were naturals in front of the camera despite having never done this before but then beautiful surroundings bring that out in us all.
