Embrace Imagery is a specialist maternity photographer based in Haywards Heath, offering a truly bespoke photographic experience for expecting mothers. Rebecca Leonard brings more than 15 years behind the camera to every pregnancy photoshoot, combining technical skill with a warm, human approach that helps you feel comfortable, seen and celebrated. Maternity photography with Embrace Imagery is about more than pretty pictures — it’s about documenting a unique, fleeting chapter in your family story with honesty, heart and quiet confidence. Rebecca’s background as a newborn photographer at Great Portland Street Hospital, followed by extensive experience in fashion and corporate photography, gives her a rare blend of gentle care and creative flair. That balance is at the heart of her maternity work: relaxed, natural poses and candid moments crafted into timeless images that reflect your personality and the emotion of expecting parenthood. Rob Houghton, with his fine art training and calm presence, often joins Rebecca to provide an extra eye for composition and an unobtrusive second perspective during shoots. How we work: every pregnancy session is tailored to you. Rebecca approaches each maternity photoshoot with sensitivity and a relaxed pace, putting your comfort first while guiding subtle, natural poses that feel effortless. Many clients treasure the gentle, conversational atmosphere she creates — even those who don’t usually enjoy being photographed find themselves laughing, connecting and discovering beautiful moments they hadn’t expected.
