Pregnancy and baby portraits

A bespoke text celebrating pregnancy, birth and adoption

Any new arrival, whether still anticipated or already present, can be such an exciting, joyful and demanding time. Days may already blur, but it’s worth making space for this: a Portraits in Prose commission, written with your words, celebrating your family or another you’re close to. Pregnancy journal. Photo shoot text. Baby gift. You decide.

I might ask about your emotional journey through your pregnancy or adoption, how it feels to become a family and your hopes for your child.

We may involve just a child’s parent(s) as contributor(s) or other family members and close friends too – a mix of perspectives on your family’s evolution.

500+ testimonials illustrate just how rewarding this special creative approach can be for everyone involved, harnessing your words so they capture this moment in time.

‘We were amazed at how you crafted what we had told you into a witty, loving and ‘perfectly us’ narrative. The balance of the text was ‘just right’, with some tears, and much laughter. Most importantly, Freddie’s character really came through.’

Our text might compare your experience before and after, complementing your account with sections addressed directly to your child – a treat to read together later.

Depending on the text length chosen, we could create the ultimate pregnancy journal, bespoke text to accompany photo shoot pictures or a shorter version to frame.

Reflecting on such a transformative point in your life would not only enhance your emotional well-being, but create a tangible record for all to share.

This Portrait for new arrivals could appeal to any parent(s) or family, no matter their size, location or whether loved ones live near or far.
