Alison Joanne Photography

Alison Joanne Photography is a specialist in maternity photography based in Kingston upon Hull, dedicated to capturing the quiet, powerful beauty of pregnancy. With a warm, welcoming studio and a gentle, patient approach, Alison creates maternity photos that feel natural, elegant and truly yours. As a qualified photographer with many years' experience and a passion for portrait work, Alison treats every maternity session as a collaboration. Before your shoot she’ll discuss your ideas, preferred colours and styling so we can design images that reflect your personality — whether you want moody, refined portraits, soft natural light, or a bump-to-baby story. Sessions are tailored to each client: partners and siblings are warmly encouraged to join, and Alison will guide you throughout the shoot to make everyone feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. For parents who want to remember more of the early stages, Alison offers structured options such as the Bump-to-Baby and Catch Me Before I Grow packages. These packages combine prenatal and newborn or early months sittings and include a beautiful Lifestyle Folio — a fold-out keepsake with mounted images designed to stand on a desk or coffee table. The result is a thoughtful collection of images that tell the story of your family’s first chapters. Practical care and safety are fundamental to Alison’s work. The studio is warm and relaxing, and all sessions are planned to prioritise your comfort. Alison is fully insured and DBS checked, giving you peace of mind while we create your portraits. Booking early is recommended — many clients contact Alison after their 20-week scan to reserve a place and plan a bespoke maternity session. Whether you’re seeking an intimate, studio portrait or a gentle, lifestyle session that captures everyday moments, Alison’s specialty in maternity photography ensures a focused, experienced service. She takes pride in the whole process — from planning and capturing to editing and presenting your final artworks — so you leave with images and heirlooms that you'll treasure for years to come. To discuss ideas or check availability for a maternity photoshoot in Kingston upon Hull, Alison is happy to chat by phone or email and to help design a session that reflects this special time.
