Nikki Cooper Photography

Nikki Cooper is a specialist maternity photographer based in Halesowen, offering calm, natural pregnancy and bump photography designed around how you want to remember this chapter. Nikki’s approach is warm, unhurried and rooted in real life: she blends gentle direction with documentary moments so your images feel intimate, honest and timeless. Why choose Nikki for your maternity photos? As a mum herself and a photographer who works across weddings, family and portraits, Nikki understands how important it is for expecting parents to feel relaxed in front of the camera. She creates a reassuring atmosphere where you can be yourself — whether that’s soft, posed portraits that celebrate your silhouette or quiet candid moments with a partner and older children. Her natural‑light studio, just a short drive from Halesowen, is deliberately neutral and cosy, making it an ideal space for flattering, timeless maternity portraits. If you prefer, Nikki also shoots in the comfort of your home or at nearby locations like Warley Woods for an outdoor, lifestyle feel. What makes her approach special is the balance of craft and care. Every session begins with a friendly pre‑shoot chat to plan outfits, locations and the kinds of images you want. On the day, Nikki guides you with relaxed prompts and small, flattering adjustments rather than stiff posing — she’s patient with pauses, outfit changes and family dynamics, and brings a calm energy that helps everyone feel at ease. She provides access to a studio wardrobe and props, and offers practical guidance on styling and print choices so your images can be enjoyed beyond a screen. Nikki is focused on capturing the real emotions of pregnancy: the quiet, the laughter, the way you look at each other. She treats maternity sessions as an opportunity to create artwork you’ll live with — framed photos and albums that echo the tenderness of this time. Serving Halesowen, Birmingham and the surrounding areas, Nikki tailors each session to your needs and makes the whole experience friendly, simple and memorable. If you’re an expecting mother looking for specialist maternity photography with a gentle, experienced photographer, Nikki Cooper offers thoughtful, natural sessions that celebrate your bump and the beginning of your family story.
