Maternity Photography in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland & Durham

A quiet celebration of Motherhood

Create your story


Pregnancy is a moment of pause. A season of softness, strength, and becoming.


My maternity photography is calm, natural and deeply personal — focused on emotion, connection and the quiet beauty of this time in your life.

The Experience


Each session is guided gently and photographed with intention.


I work slowly and intuitively, allowing space for movement, stillness and real emotion. There is no pressure to perform or pose — only to be present.


The result is a refined, timeless collection of images that feel honest, elegant and true to you.

Natural light.

Soft tones.

Minimal direction.

Photographs created with care, simplicity and feeling — made to be remembered, not rushed.

When to Book

Maternity sessions are best photographed between 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully defined and you feel comfortable and at ease.

I recommend booking in advance, as availability is limited.
