Louella Photography is a specialist in maternity photography based in Birkenhead. Paulina brings a warm, naturally calming approach to every pregnancy photoshoot — born from her years working with families and her own experience as a mum. Her goal is simple: to create timeless, flattering images that celebrate this unique chapter without stress or fuss. Why choose Louella Photography? Paulina’s sessions are designed around comfort and connection. As a mobile photographer she comes to your home so you can relax in familiar surroundings, or she can arrange an outdoor session in the summer months. She understands the best time to capture gentle curves and moments of expectation and will guide you on timing, wardrobe and poses so your shoot feels effortless. Many clients remark on her “baby whisperer” calm — a gentle, reassuring presence that keeps the focus on you. What makes the approach special is the combination of technical skill and a nurturing, personalised experience. Paulina offers pre-consultation guidance, access to a collection of maternity outfits and throws, and practical tips to prepare for the session. Partners and siblings are welcome to join, creating natural family portraits that complement your maternity images. Sessions are paced to suit how you feel on the day, with plenty of breaks and an emphasis on warm, natural light and flattering angles. How Louella works: after your enquiry you’ll receive clear pre-booking guidance and a relaxed planning chat to choose location, outfits and the mood you want. On the day, Paulina creates a calm atmosphere, focusing on authentic moments — gentle poses, intimate close-ups and those quiet, reflective shots that become treasured keepsakes. Your proofs are delivered in a private online gallery, and each chosen image is carefully edited to produce a polished, timeless result. Based on the Wirral and covering Merseyside, Cheshire and North Wales, Louella Photography specialises in maternity and prides herself on a friendly, detail-focused service. If you want a compassionate, experienced photographer who will make your pregnancy photoshoot comfortable, beautiful and personal, Louella is here to help you celebrate this milestone.
