Sandra Ford Portraits specialises in maternity photography in Castleford. In a cosy Fitzwilliam studio Sandra’s gentle, award-winning approach creates timeless, emotive bump portraits you’ll treasure.
Sandra Ford Portraits is a recognised specialist in maternity photography serving Castleford and the surrounding West Yorkshire communities from a cosy, family-focused studio in Fitzwilliam. Sandra’s work celebrates the quiet strength and emotional connection of pregnancy — not as a single pose but as a thoughtful portrait experience that honours each mother’s story. With decades of experience and industry recognition, Sandra brings a calm, personable approach to every maternity photoshoot. Her studio is designed to make expectant mothers feel comfortable and confident: soft natural light, a selection of classic gowns, and considered styling ensure images that feel timeless rather than trendy. Sandra listens first — she discusses the look you want, whether intimate and pared-back, romantic with flowing fabrics, or a modern bump portrait that highlights form and silhouette. The session is built around you. Sandra encourages partners and siblings to join when you wish, and she adapts poses and lighting to suit different comfort levels and styles. As a qualified member of leading industry bodies and an award-winning portrait photographer, she combines technical craft with gentle direction so clients relax and genuine expressions emerge. Many parents remark on how easy the session feels — warm, unhurried and personal — which leads to the quiet, emotive images Sandra is known for. After the shoot, you’re invited to view your portraits in a cinematic reveal where Sandra guides you through the selection and presentation options. Her focus is on creating lasting artwork you’ll be proud to display — framed prints, folio collections and heirloom pieces that turn those pregnant moments into family treasures. If you’re looking for a maternity photographer in Castleford who values connection, comfort and craft, Sandra Ford Portraits offers a specialist, personalised experience. Get in touch to discuss your vision and arrange a relaxed consultation — Sandra will answer your questions, share styling advice and help design a maternity session that feels uniquely yours.
