Annie Gower-Jones Baby Photography

I’m Annie — an Irlam-based maternity photographer who specialises in gentle, natural maternity photography and pregnancy photoshoots. As a mum myself and trained birth and postnatal doula, I bring a calm, understanding presence to every session. That background means I know how to make expectant mothers feel comfortable, supported and celebrated as we create flattering, timeless images of this precious stage. My approach to a maternity photoshoot is thoughtful and personal. I favour soft, natural styling and relaxed posing that highlights the connection between you and your growing baby. Whether you want elegant, classic maternity photos or informal bump photography that captures everyday emotion, I take time to listen to what matters to you and design a session that feels authentic. Sessions are conducted in my home photography studio (Timperley) which offers a warm, private space with natural light — perfect for creating soft, intimate pregnancy portraits. Safety, comfort and atmosphere are central to how I work. I prioritise your wellbeing during the shoot, take a gentle pace, and ensure you always feel safe and at ease. Many clients appreciate the doula-informed sensitivity I bring — from suggestions on comfortable poses to simple ways to help you relax in front of the camera. I aim to make the whole experience enjoyable, relaxed and unhurried so the resulting maternity photos reflect your calm confidence and the joy of expecting. Why choose me for your maternity photoshoot in Irlam and the surrounding area? I combine specialist maternity experience with a warm, mother-led perspective and a studio environment designed for comfort. My images focus on natural beauty, real emotion and the little details you’ll want to remember — the curve of your bump, soft expressions, and intimate connection. If you’re looking for maternity photography that feels personal, calm and beautifully crafted, I’d love to hear from you. I also offer family photography as an additional option should you wish to include partners or siblings in your portraits.
