Little Bears Photos is a specialist in maternity photography based in Mossley, Ashton-under-Lyne. Focusing on fine-art maternity and bump photography, we create calm, elegant portraits that celebrate pregnancy and the quiet power of expecting mothers. Our approach combines a gentle, client-led style with considered lighting and composition to produce images that feel timeless rather than trendy. Why choose Little Bears Photos? We treat maternity sessions as intimate, personal experiences. From the first enquiry to image delivery, the emphasis is on making you comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Our Mossley studio offers a relaxed environment where we give clear, compassionate direction so you can relax into natural, flattering poses. Whether you want classic, sculptural silhouettes or soft, emotive portraits that highlight the connection with your changing body, we tailor each session to your vision. Our Fine Art Sessions philosophy informs every pregnancy photoshoot. We prioritise natural light, careful posing, and elegant styling to create images that work beautifully on walls and in albums. We listen to what matters to you — modesty, movement, or dramatic form — and guide the session to capture those moments authentically. Professional retouching is used sparingly and respectfully to enhance the final photographs while preserving the integrity of your natural glow. How we work: before your session we discuss wardrobe, preferred looks, and any accessibility or comfort needs so your experience is smooth from start to finish. On the day, we move at a relaxed pace, offering direction and reassurance while encouraging real expressions and quiet confidence. After the shoot you receive a curated gallery of high-quality images ready for display and keepsakes. Serving Ashton-under-Lyne and the surrounding areas, Little Bears Photos is dedicated to crafting maternity portraits that feel personal, artful and enduring. If you’re seeking a specialist maternity photographer who understands how to honour this unique time with sensitivity and artistic care, we’d love to create beautiful images with you.
