Anna Kireeva Photography

I’m Anna, a maternity specialist based in Hoyland Nether, South Yorkshire (just outside Barnsley). As a mum myself and a photographer with years of experience, I know how fleeting pregnancy is and how precious those bump memories become. My approach to maternity photography is calm, natural and light-led — I aim to create timeless images that feel like you, not a staged photoshoot. Why choose me for your maternity photoshoot? I focus entirely on maternity as a core specialism. That means thoughtful guidance from our first chat through to the finished images: a relaxed pre-session consultation, wardrobe ideas that favour flowing dresses and neutral tones, and gentle posing that highlights the beautiful shapes of pregnancy. I love working with natural light and soft, neutral styling to keep the focus on your connection and the tender moments of this season. Where we shoot is your choice. I offer relaxed studio sessions from my home studio near Barnsley, plus outdoor maternity sessions around Hoyland Nether and the wider South Yorkshire area. Outdoors we seek the soft, golden light and seasonal colour that gives images warmth and depth. In the studio we create a clean, timeless aesthetic with a neutral palette that flatters your bump and keeps the images feeling contemporary for years to come. My sessions are about more than just pretty pictures — they’re an experience. I like to make mums-to-be feel comfortable and confident: we laugh, we chat, and I give gentle direction so you never have to worry about ‘posing’. Partners and siblings are very welcome; capturing the family connection around your bump often becomes some of my favourite work. After the shoot you’ll be invited to an in-person viewing where we share your edited images in a beautiful slideshow and discuss favourite prints or wall art for your home. My goal is to help you leave with photographs you’ll cherish and pieces that sit happily in your everyday life. If you’re looking for specialist maternity photography in Hoyland Nether, Barnsley or South Yorkshire — shot with warmth, attention to light and a gentle, natural approach — I’d love to hear from you. Let’s capture this incredible chapter together.
