Beehive Photography Studios

Memories can be fleeting — and a pregnancy is a chapter you’ll want to remember in every detail. At Beehive Photography Studios in Gelligaer, Tom specialises in maternity photography, dedicated to capturing the quiet strength, glow and intimacy of this unique time. As a specialist in maternity and portrait work, he brings an easy‑going, fun and relaxed approach so your session feels natural and comfortable. Why choose Beehive for your maternity photoshoot? Tom has more than 20 years behind the camera and a wide-ranging background in portrait and wedding photography that informs a sensitive, flattering maternity style. He knows how to guide poses that emphasise the beauty of the bump while keeping the atmosphere light and authentic. That blend of experience and warmth helps even the most camera‑shy mums-to-be relax and enjoy the session. The Beehive approach is all about connection and atmosphere. Sessions are held in our comfortable Gelligaer studio where light, composition and modest styling are used to create timeless pregnancy portraits. Tom prefers to focus on natural expressions and simple, elegant setups that centre on you — the shape of your bump, your relationship with your partner, and the quiet moments that matter. Whether you want soft, classic portraits or more contemporary, stylised images, Tom adapts the shoot to your personality and vision. How we work: before the session Tom will discuss your preferences and ideas so the shoot reflects what you want to remember. On the day, he keeps direction gentle and conversational, helping you find flattering poses while encouraging natural interaction. The aim is to make the experience relaxed, even joyful, so the pictures reflect how you felt in that moment. Tom’s passion is helping families keep the memories alive forever. As a specialist in maternity and portraiture based in Gelligaer, Beehive Photography Studios combines technical skill, thoughtful composition and a friendly, reassuring presence to deliver pregnancy photos you’ll treasure. If you’d like a consultation or to book a session, Tom is happy to answer questions and tailor a shoot to suit you.
