Maternity photography in Teesside
Relaxed maternity photography in Teesside
Pregnancy can feel like it goes on forever, but once your baby is born your bump can quickly be forgotten.
Lots of mums tell me, at their newborn session, how they miss their bump…it’s a very handy place to rest a mug!
I’ve never met a new mum who wasn’t glad they’d booked their pregnancy portraits.
My style is relaxed and natural with no awkward poses, cheesy outfits or props.
I will capture simple, flattering maternity photographs for you to remember this fleeting time.
Your bump won’t always be there, so a maternity session is a relaxed opportunity to pause and celebrate the anticipation of meeting your baby.
Natural maternity photography, outdoors or in your home in Teesside
When I’m working outdoors or in my clients’ homes I’m able to use the light and space to create something unique for each family.
Where do you love to spend time together?
Whether it’s curling up on the sofa, or walking on the beach, we can turn your favourite places into a personal backdrop for your photographs.
When is the best time to book a maternity photography session?
The ideal time for a maternity session is between 28 and 34 weeks, so most couples contact me at scan stage to secure their ideal dates.
If your due date is getting close, and you are just starting to think about a maternity shoot, that’s no problem.
In the later stages you may be feeling less comfortable and mobile but it is possible to capture your pregnancy portraits at any time up until baby’s birth.
If you’d like some help, please get in touch for advice and availability.
What to expect during your maternity photography session
I keep my sessions light and relaxed to create informal, natural photographs with no awkward posing.
We’ll spend about 45 minutes together capturing your portraits, so you will not be on your feet for too long.
I’ll use gentle direction to guide you and walk you through every step of the shoot.
Your partner and any older children are welcome to join us for the session (you can even bring the dog!).
Kind words
“We have just viewed our gallery from our bump and newborn photoshoots with Jen and I am utterly over the moon with our photographs.
It has been such an amazing experience and a wonderful way to treasure the memories of my pregnancy and the early weeks with our little one.
Thank you just doesn’t seem enough!”

My maternity & newborn package
If you’re thinking about booking a maternity session, and know you would love to capture your new baby, this could be the perfect package for you.
Your bump is so quickly forgotten after baby arrives and so many mums are glad they captured the fleeting time before birth.
My Maternity and Newborn photography package brings both sessions together into one experience.
You’ll view both sets of photographs together in one private gallery, after your newborn session, with 15 high resolution digital images already included.
Viewing your maternity portraits
After your shoot I will professionally edit and gently enhance the best photographs from your session.
You will receive a beautiful private online gallery to enjoy your photographs in the comfort of your home.
Your inclusive digital images can be chosen and downloaded directly to your device.
There are lots of options for additional images, prints and products for you to explore.
Feel free to share your gallery with family and friends.
Meet your photographer
Hello and congratulations on your pregnancy!
I’m Jen, the friendly face behind Fable & Kin.
I’m a mum too and I remember my own pregnancy with mixed feelings – there was a lot of joy, but I was also pretty uncomfortable towards the end!
That being said, all the mums I speak to say it goes by in flash and is soon forgotten with the whirlwind of a newborn.
For this reason I’ve designed my maternity sessions to be easy and relaxed with no uncomfortable poses or awkward set-ups.
I’m there to guide you every step of the way and capture natural, flattering photographs you will love.
Future family sessions
Many of the families I work with first met me in those early newborn days.
Once we’ve worked together, I’d love to stay with your family over the years.
I photograph relaxed, natural sessions for my clients as their children grow: first birthdays, family portraits, the milestones in between.
I meet my families wherever they are across our area from Seaton Carew to Saltburn.
