Photo Iksanova LLC

Hello — I’m Irina Iksanova, founder of Photo Iksanova LLC and a specialist in maternity photography based in Gainsborough. My work is devoted to capturing the quiet strength and gentle beauty of pregnancy, creating maternity photos that feel personal, timeless and true to you. Why choose me for your maternity photoshoot? Maternity is a primary focus of my practice. I approach every session with sensitivity and care, aiming to make expecting mothers feel comfortable and celebrated. Whether we shoot in my studio or select a location nearby, I use soft, flattering light and simple compositions so the emotion of the moment — your bump, your connection with a partner or family — remains at the heart of every image. My style is natural and elegant: I favour authentic poses and gentle direction that help you relax in front of the camera. I guide each client with clear, reassuring suggestions so even those who feel camera-shy can enjoy the experience. The result is a collection of maternity photos that tell your story — from quiet portraits to tender family moments. How I work: we begin with a friendly consultation to discuss your vision, preferred style, and any wardrobe or prop ideas. On the day of the maternity photoshoot I create a calm atmosphere, take time to find the most flattering light, and direct softly so your personality shines through. I pay careful attention to detail in post-production to ensure your maternity photos look natural and lovingly finished. Serving Gainsborough and the surrounding area, I specialise in pregnancy photography, bump photography and pregnancy photoshoots for expecting mothers who want beautiful, honest images. If you’d like a personalised maternity session — studio or on-location — I’m here to help you plan and relax into the experience. To book or ask a question, please get in touch. I look forward to creating maternity photos that become keepsakes for years to come.
