Clare Evans specialises in maternity photography in Edinburgh. Her relaxed, mother-focused studio sessions create timeless, fine-art motherhood portraits you’ll cherish and display.
I’m Clare Evans and maternity photography is at the heart of what I do at Edinburgh Portrait Studio. With more than 20 years’ experience and a BA (Hons) in Photography and Media, I approach each pregnancy photoshoot as an opportunity to create motherhood portraits that are more than photographs — they are timeless pieces of art. Why choose me for your maternity photoshoot in Edinburgh? I combine technical skill with a calm, relaxed studio manner that helps expectant mothers feel comfortable and confident. My work is rooted in classic portraiture and fine-art sensibilities: careful lighting, considered posing and attention to subtle detail so your bump is celebrated with elegance and warmth. I’ve been recognised by respected industry bodies and I invest in training every year to keep my approach fresh and inspired. What makes my approach special is the focus on creating images you will want to live with. I take time in the studio — I don’t run a high-volume business — so sessions are unhurried and tailored to you. Whether you want intimate, soft-lit bump portraits or strong, graphic motherhood images, I work with you to find the mood and styling that best reflect this moment in your life. My aim is to produce portraits that look as beautiful on your walls in 40 years as they do today. How I work: from our first conversation I’ll listen to your ideas and preferences, advising on poses, wardrobe and simple props to enhance the shoot. In the studio I create a relaxed atmosphere that supports natural expressions and genuine connection. After the session, I hand-edit every selected image to a high standard and offer professional printing and framing through local master craftsmen — I believe in my product so strongly that I offer a lifelong guarantee on my framed work. Based in an accessible Edinburgh studio with ample off-street parking and a lift, I welcome you to bring along anything meaningful you’d like included in your portraits. My practice is built on patience, creativity and respect for this special stage of life. If you’re looking for a maternity photographer in Edinburgh who treats motherhood portraits as fine art and who will guide you confidently through the whole process, I’d love to hear from you.
