I absolutely believe my midwifery background gives me a USP [unique selling point] and has contributed positively to how I work with my pregnant clients. I treat them similarly to a clinical relationship, where they are still the most important person in the room and that I am there to make their experience wonderful.
Midwifery and maternity photography in my opinion should encompass very similar elements: empowerment, encouragement and support. Midwifery translates to "with woman" and I treat the sessions the same.
