Maternity photography in Raglan, New Zealand, captures the beauty and stillness of pregnancy, outdoors in natural light. Every maternity session with Nami Creative is fully guided (you simply turn up) and shot exclusively at Nami's own Raglan locations, designed to hold this season of anticipation exactly as it feels, soft, honest and worth remembering.
I am here to create memories you can look back on decades to come and still absolutely love! Partners are welcome of course too x
Natural, empowering, artsy, playful & cinematic - never stiff, uncomfortable or forced.
Some questions women ask
How many weeks pregnant should I be for maternity photos?
Most women book between 30 and 36 weeks pregnant, when the bump is well defined but movement is still comfortable.
What should I wear for my maternity photoshoot?
Flowing fabrics and solid colours that highlight your bump tend to photograph best outdoors. I do a full consult before our shoot and also have items you can borrow ranging from size 6-22 :)
How long is a maternity photoshoot in Raglan?
Sessions are fully guided and timed around golden hour light, with length depending on the package chosen from 30 mins to 2.5 hours. The best thing to do is contact me for availability and we can figure out what the most suited package is for you
Do I need experience posing?
No. Every woman is guided through the entire session. No experience or posing knowledge is needed, simply arrive as you are. Posing and guiding you is entirely my job.
Can my partner or other children be included?
Yes, many women choose to include their partner or other children for part of the session. Let me know when booking so the session can be planned around it.
How long does it take to receive the photos?
You'll receive your fully edited gallery between 2-3 weeks post-shoot. All images are hand-selected and edited by myself, no AI culling, ever, and no outsourced editing.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. A $250 deposit is required to secure your date, and the remaining balance can be paid off prior to your shoot, weekly, monthly, or as a lump sum, whichever suits you best.
