MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER BRISTOL BATH STROUD & THE COTSWOLDS
Maternity photography in Bristol, I photograph families across Stroud, the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, Bath, Tetbury, and Malmesbury.
Pregnancy is a fleeting, powerful chapter. As a maternity photographer in Gloucestershire, Bristol and Bath, I create gentle, timeless portraits that honour this extraordinary moment in your journey into motherhood.
Maternity sessions are relaxed and unposed, centred on connection, softness and presence. Whether we photograph you outdoors in natural light or somewhere that feels deeply meaningful to you, the focus is always on capturing how this season feels, not just how it looks.
I recommend booking your maternity session between 30–38 weeks, when your bump is beautifully rounded and you still feel comfortable enough to move, breathe, and simply be. This stage passes more quickly than we ever expect, yet it marks the very beginning of motherhood a moment you’ll never return to, but will always want to remember.
I often begin by photographing newborns, and years later, I’m still there, witnessing the quiet moments, the bursts of laughter, the deepening bonds, and the steady unfolding of love.
Being part of your family’s story is a privilege I don’t take lightly.
I understand that having photos taken can sometimes feel like just another task in a busy life, or maybe even a little uncomfortable. But these moments, the messy, the joyful, the still, are the ones that pass by so quickly, almost unnoticed. Without photographs, they risk slipping quietly into the past.
A photograph isn’t just an image frozen in time; it’s a memory held gently, a trace of the love that lives within your family, and a way to return to those fleeting, beautiful days long after they’ve passed.
If you’re in Gloucestershire, Bristol, Bath, Tetbury, Malmesbury, or nearby, I’d be honoured to capture these moments for you. Not as a formal event, but as a true reflection of your family’s life and connection.
Whenever you feel ready, I’m here, and I’d love to hear from you.
Relaxed, playful sessions capturing your family just as you are, guided with care, warmth, and a touch of magic.
I photograph families and generations across Gloucestershire, the Cotswolds, Bristol, Bath, Tetbury and Malmesbury.
Though the images may look serene, the sessions are often full of laughter, a bit silly, and just the right kind of wild.
I would be honoured to capture your family.
