Karen Murden is a Doncaster-based maternity specialist, crafting timeless bump photography in a warm studio. Expect gown styling, implied-nude elegance and relaxed, confidence-building posing.
I absolutely love photographing pregnant mamas — it’s one of my favourite things to do. Based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, I specialise in maternity photography and create maternity photoshoots that celebrate the beauty, strength and anticipation of pregnancy. My aim is always the same: to help you feel amazing, confident and utterly comfortable in front of the camera so the love for this time in your life shines through every image. My approach is personal and hands-on. In the studio you'll be able to choose from a selection of dresses and textures that flatter your bump and suit your style. I often include implied-nude shots because they’re timeless and stunning; I guide you through every pose (I’m a little bit silly with mine, so you can just copy me!) which makes posing relaxed and fun even if you’ve never modelled before. Partners and siblings are absolutely welcome to join sessions — getting them involved often creates the most natural, emotional images. I focus on simple styling and clean textures so nothing distracts from the real subject: you and your connection with your growing baby. I work with care, attention to detail and a calm studio atmosphere so you can enjoy the experience and take home photographs that become treasured family heirlooms. Practical experience matters: years of dedicated maternity work have taught me how to make each session feel safe, flattering and special. I’ll help with wardrobe choices, gentle posing, and capturing both intimate portraits and more environmental, lifestyle-style images if you’d like. Sessions are tailored so that every mama gets a look and a set of images that reflect her personality and the moment she’s in. If you’re looking for a maternity photographer in Doncaster who specialises in beautiful, confident bump photography and a relaxed, supportive studio experience, I’d love to work with you. Get in touch to discuss your vision and book a session — let’s capture this extraordinary time with images you’ll treasure forever.
