Creative Portraits

Creative Portraits is a dedicated maternity specialist based in Blackpool & the Fylde Coast, offering maternity photography that celebrates the beauty, strength and anticipation of pregnancy. We treat each maternity shoot as an opportunity to create fine art images that reflect who you are in this remarkable moment — natural, confident and utterly unique. Why choose Creative Portraits? Because we focus on maternity as a core strength. Our approach is calm and conversational: we listen to your ideas, advise on styling and poses that flatter your silhouette, and craft portraits that feel personal rather than staged. The studio atmosphere is laid-back and friendly — as Steve often says, the kettle's always on — which helps even the most camera-shy mums-to-be relax and enjoy the experience. What makes our maternity sessions special is the blend of technical skill and gentle direction. We work with flattering lighting, considered compositions and subtle posing to highlight your bump and the emotion of this time. Kirsty, our newborn and baby specialist, brings a reassuring, highly trained touch to our baby-focused work; many clients choose to continue their journey into newborn and 'Baby's First Year' sessions so the story of pregnancy flows seamlessly into portraits of parent and baby together. How we work: it starts with a quick planning chat so we understand your vision and can recommend wardrobe, props or whether a studio or location shoot suits your style. On the day, we prioritise comfort and pace — a relaxed studio session gives you space to breathe, move and connect while we capture natural moments. After the shoot, you return for a personal viewing session where we present your images in high definition and help you choose keepsakes and display options that suit your home. Our commitment is simple: to create maternity portraits you'll love and to make the whole process enjoyable. Whether you want intimate, timeless portraits of your bump or a fuller 'First Year' collection that includes newborn moments, Creative Portraits brings specialist care, experience and a warm Blackpool studio environment to every session.
