Photographer looking for pregnant women in Cardiff area

I'm a photographer in my second year at Glamorgan University, studying in Cardiff. Ideally I'm interested in documenting women in the late stages of pregnancy and after birth, over the next two to three months. I want to take an intimate look at what pregnancy involves, physically and emotionally. At this stage I am just looking to see if anyone is interested in getting involved. Any photographs I take will go towards my module on documentary photography, but obviously I will make them available to you, free of charge. I would love to hear your thoughts and anyone who's interested in getting involved please don't hesitate to get in contact! Thanks.

Sounds like a great opportunity for somebody! Alas, I am too far away too, but I would encourage people to give it a go. I'm a photographer myself and I see how much some people love to treasure their properly done maternity photographs after the baby is born :)

Good luck with the project and the course!

Hello Katherine. Your project sounds nice. I might be interrested in participating. I live in Bath, which is not too far. I am 20 weeks at the moment so I am not sure if it would be suitable for you. Anyway let me know if you still need help.

Thankyou for all the responses! Am really excited to see where this leads. I'll message you all separately and see what we can sort out. The nice thing is you're all at different stages so perhaps I can work with that. I'll be in touch :)
