Capture The Rainbow Photography

If you’re searching for a maternity photographer in Consett who understands the quiet wonder of pregnancy, you’re in the right place. I’m Siobhàn — a mum of three and a specialist in natural, timeless maternity photography. My approach is simple: strip away the distractions and focus on the way you feel right now. The way you cradle your bump, the small, everyday gestures, the quiet anticipation — these are the moments I love to preserve. My studio in Leadgate, Consett has been designed to feel like a room in your home: warm, cosy and softly lit. There are no gimmicks or attention-stealing props here. Instead, you’ll find a calm space where you can breathe, be yourself and enjoy a pause from the to-do list. My aim is to create an atmosphere that helps you relax so the photographs can be honest, unforced and beautifully timeless. I specialise in maternity photoshoots that are led by you. Sessions are gentle and unhurried — typically around 20–40 minutes for mini sessions, with longer sittings available for those who want more time. I’ll guide you with simple, natural prompts so you always feel comfortable; my priority is to capture authenticity rather than staged poses. Many mums find that neutral tones and simple styling best complement this minimalist aesthetic — I also have options available if you’d like wardrobe help. Why choose Capture The Rainbow for your maternity photos? My work is rooted in real family life. As a parent myself and the youngest of a very large family, I love the small, tender details that make each pregnancy unique. I focus on storytelling — your photos should transport you back to the feelings and relationships of this time, not just record a look or trend. The process is personal and supportive: from initial booking advice on timing (most clients choose a session between about 26–34 weeks) to a relaxed studio experience, then a viewing to choose the images you’ll cherish. I serve families across County Durham and the surrounding areas, and I take a limited number of maternity bookings each month to ensure every session gets the time and care it deserves. If you’d like maternity portraits that feel honest, warm and timeless, I’d love to hear from you. Pop a message over and we’ll talk about how to capture this special chapter of your story. Siobhàn x
