Ellie K Photography

Ellie K Photography is a specialist maternity photographer based in Gateshead, focused on celebrating the extraordinary changes of pregnancy. Ellie — a mum herself — brings a warm, patient approach that helps expecting mothers feel comfortable, confident and genuinely photographed. Her work is about more than pretty images; it’s about capturing the quiet strength, tenderness and anticipation that come with this life-changing time. Ellie’s sessions are carefully planned with you. Every booking starts with a friendly consultation so you can share your vision, choose styling and agree a mood for the shoot. She offers wardrobe support and a preparation guide so you arrive feeling prepared and relaxed, and she’ll suggest the best timing for a bump-focused session so your shape looks beautifully round and natural. Whether you prefer intimate, close-up portraits of your bump or more editorial, styled images that include partner and family, Ellie adapts her approach to suit your comfort level. During the shoot Ellie works at a gentle pace, creating space for natural moments between directed poses. Her aim is to build a calm atmosphere where you can breathe, move and connect — so the images feel authentic rather than staged. If you’d like partner or sibling shots, Ellie encourages family involvement and will guide everyone through poses that look natural and affectionate. For those wanting a joined journey, she also offers bump-to-baby options to document both pregnancy and your newborn’s earliest days. After the session you’ll be invited to a private viewing where Ellie walks you through the images and helps you choose the keepsakes that mean the most. Her personal, hands-on service and attention to detail — from styling advice to the viewing experience — is why many local families trust Ellie to document this special chapter. If you’re looking for a Gateshead maternity photographer who combines a calm studio environment, thoughtful planning and a heartfelt connection to her clients, Ellie K Photography specialises in maternity photography that feels warm, timeless and true to you.
