Guildford-based maternity specialist capturing natural, elegant pregnancy portraits. Warm studio or outdoor maternity photoshoots with personalised wardrobe guidance and a relaxed experience.
I'm Aliana Bruce — a Guildford-based maternity photographer with a simple goal: to capture the quiet, powerful beauty of pregnancy with warmth and care. As a mum myself and a photographer since 2013, I understand how transformational this time is. My maternity sessions are designed to be calm, confidence-boosting and beautifully styled so your pregnancy photos reflect the emotion and connection you feel right now. Why choose me for your maternity photoshoot? I specialise in maternity photography and focus on creating timeless pregnancy portraits that celebrate your bump and your story. Whether you prefer the intimacy of my cosy Guildford studio or the natural light and landscapes of Surrey’s parks, I tailor each session to your vision — from soft, flowing gowns and closet access to simple, elegant poses that flatter every body. My approach is relaxed and conversational; I guide you gently through poses, suggest outfits and create a supportive, safe atmosphere so you can feel your best in front of the camera. How I work with expecting mothers: we start with a short consultation to discuss timing, styling and mood — I typically recommend booking between 30–36 weeks when your bump is beautifully round and you still have energy for the session. On the day, I prioritise comfort and pace: breaks as needed, flattering lighting, and thoughtful posing that highlights the connection between you and your partner or family if you’d like them involved. After the shoot, I carefully edit your images to create a cohesive collection of maternity photos you’ll want to display and pass down. My sessions are part of a broader family-focused practice in Guildford and Surrey — I value real moments and natural expression above forced smiles. I also encourage clients to invest in printed products: albums, wall art and professional prints are a beautiful way to make these memories tangible and lasting. If you’re looking for a maternity specialist who combines technical skill, a mother’s sensitivity and a relaxed, personal experience, I’d love to chat. Let’s design a pregnancy photoshoot that feels like you and creates images you’ll treasure for years to come.
