Happy Everlie After

I’m Hayley Kearton — a Keighley-based maternity photographer who loves capturing the quiet, beautiful moments of pregnancy. As a mum of four I know how fleeting this time feels, and my work is about more than pictures: it’s about giving you images that make you smile, remember, and feel proud of your changing body. My approach is relaxed and natural. I favour honest, emotional images over staged perfection — those small glances, soft smiles, the gentle curve of your bump — the details that make this chapter yours. Whether we shoot in my studio in Keighley with a selection of backdrops and props or in the comfort of your own home, I create a calm atmosphere where you can feel comfortable and be yourself. Plenty of time for breaks, a friendly chat, and a zero-pressure attitude mean your session feels more like spending time with a caring friend than a formal photoshoot. I’m a specialist in maternity photography and tailor each session to reflect your personality and vision. Many clients choose to include partners or older children so we can capture the connection between you all; if you prefer a more intimate bump-only set, we’ll create those too. I work with natural light and gentle posing to highlight the tenderness of pregnancy while keeping things simple and timeless. From our first conversation to delivering your images, I aim to make the whole process easy and enjoyable. I offer a free meet-up to discuss what you want, suggest outfit, backdrop and styling ideas, and answer any questions you might have. I’m based in Keighley but I can travel across the UK for sessions — just get in touch and we’ll plan what suits you best. Choosing Happy Everlie After means choosing a maternity specialist who brings warmth, patience and real-life experience to every shoot. If you want pregnancy photos that feel genuine, relaxed and full of heart, I’d love to create them with you.
