For every season of motherhood
Natural Maternity & Motherhood Photography in York & Yorkshire
Relaxed motherhood and maternity photography across Yorkshire and surrounding areas including York, Leeds, Hull, Beverley, Selby and beyond. Sessions are relaxed and unhurried, focusing on emotion, connection and the beauty of this chapter as it unfolds.
Motherhood changes quietly and constantly
It doesn’t arrive all at once, and it doesn’t look the same from one season to the next. These sessions are a way to slow down and honour the many shapes motherhood takes. Motherhood sessions focus on you in relationship with your children, just as you are right now. The way your hands find them without thinking.
The closeness, the comfort, the small, unseen moments that so often go undocumented.
“We did a maternity photoshoot with Heather a week ago, the experience was incredible, she made us feel very comfortable and we just had fun whilst doing it. The photos came up to be amazing, I can’t pick a favourite one! Completely recommend her to capture such precious moments”
A lifetime of becoming
Motherhood begins long before your baby is in your arms, in the quiet anticipation, the becoming.
It’s tender and overwhelming, lived in the everyday moments, whether you’re carrying your baby or holding them close.
These sessions hold space for it all, from maternity through to motherhood. No stiff posing, no pressure, just gentle guidance and room to be.
So often, mothers are behind the camera. This is your invitation to step into the frame and have this chapter remembered for how it felt.
Guidance that feels effortless
I help you prepare for your session, find outfits that feel like you and help to create beautiful, cohesive images, and move through the session with ease.

These sessions are for the mothers who rarely get time to pause and see themselves as they truly are. A moment away from the rhythm of the day to be noticed, to breathe, to simply exist in the relationship you’ve built with your children.
“Heather did a motherhood shoot with myself and my two girls, and hand on heart she captured the most beautiful pictures I own....and I mean that. The emotion and love she captured is just worth more than anything you could wish for and I cried looking through our gallery as she really brought to life what motherhood meant to me.”
Documenting love
Photographed gently, with care and intention, these sessions honour the connection between you and your children, the closeness, the strength, the softness that exists in between. The images are quiet and honest, shaped by light, touch, and the rhythm of your relationship.
Sessions can take place wherever you feel most alive and connected, wrapped in sea air at the beach, beneath the stillness of the woods, or in the quiet familiarity of home. The setting becomes part of the story, grounding your images in places that already hold meaning for you.
“It’s so incredible - she has made me feel beautiful! Those pictures actually make me see who I am as a mum. It’s really quite special.”
“I'm completely speechless! I genuinely don't even know what to say. I can't believe how beautifully you captured each personality! I'm kind of a weeping mess right now. I need to get myself together. You're AMAZING and these photos are everything to me. Thank you!
Let’s tell your story
I would love to hear about your journey into motherhood. About the path that brought you here, the weight and wonder of it, and what this season feels like in your body and your heart right now.
There is no right story, no neat version, no expectation of how it should sound. Whether your days feel full, tender, heavy, joyful, or quietly in between, it all belongs. Every message is read with care, and every story is held as something meaningful.
If you feel called to share, know that your words matter. And so does the season you’re standing in.
“I had a photshoot with some of my children who are neurodivergent not long ago, Heather is honestly the most calming person to be around. She is so accepting and made us all feel so comfortable, like meeting with an old friend. Her photography skills are amazing! These photos are the best I've ever had taken of my family, I cannot speak highly enough of Heather and the photoshoot I had!
I will treasure these photos for my lifetime. And would definitely go back to Heather time and time again.
“I had the absolute pleasure of having a photoshoot with my little boy during my pregnancy with my second baby, and I honestly couldn’t recommend the experience enough. 🤍
From start to finish, from organising the shoot to the day itself and then receiving the photos, every part of the experience felt so special. As someone who doesn’t particularly like having their photo taken, I felt completely at ease. I spent most of the shoot laughing, which I think says everything about how comfortable and natural it felt. The photos I’ve received are, without a doubt, some of the most special photos I have. They’ve captured the relationship I have with my son so perfectly, and I’ll treasure them forever.
I’m so grateful to have these beautiful memories of such a special chapter in our lives. 🤍”
