North East England intimate Motherhood Photography
celebrating the hard and beautiful moments of mothering
Outdoor Maternity
Intimate Maternity
I love offering both options to expecting mammas!
Sometimes the idea of getting all dressed up and exploring a wooded trail or splashing in the water feels grounding and exactly what you need to celebrate your pregnancy…
Sometimes running around with your other little ones and landing all snuggled in a pile in a field feels like the best way to memorialize you pregnancy…
And sometimes staying home, loving your body and the way it’s growing and changing is the way you see yourself making time to acknowledge your journey of motherhood.
No matter how you want to commemorate this season of pregnancy! I am honored to capture your beautiful journey!
Durham, England Fine Art Motherhood Photography
It can be so hard to take the time to get in front of the camera and celebrate that incredibly important bond of motherhood...
It can be so hard to learn to love your new body after it’s given so fully of itself in pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and just day-to-day life….
But taking a moment to breathe, celebrate, feel power in the journey can be more than simply a gift but a healing balm to your aching mother soul!
Postpartum
An intimate documentary-style fresh 48 that focuses on those hazy first days together after birth. Raw and uncensored storytelling of those restful days of bonding, bleeding and often milk leaking.
Babyfeeding
Whether you breastfeed, chest-feed, bottle feed or have a special relationship with feeding, these sessions are a beautiful and intimate way to celebrate
Motherhood
A time to just document you loving your little ones. This can be for any season of your journey you want to remember!
Testimonials from happy mamas
“When I looked at these photos for the first time, I wept.
I thought I was taking some body positivity inspiring photos but it was so beyond that.
I was able to witness myself in the act of loving. I was able to look at myself, my soft and tired body, with affection.”
Megan
“Her photos are beautiful, artful, and rich. She has photographed 5 session for our family now from maternity, birth, motherhood, and two family sessions! She has a talent for capturing the beauty of the motherhood experience, in all its reality, so eloquently. I would highly recommend Hanna if you are looking for someone to capture your mothering experience.”

“ Hanna followed the journey of my 5th pregnancy from 18 weeks until 1 year after his birth for her Motherhood Project in 2018. Working with Hanna was such a dream. She definitely pushed my boundaries in a good way and got me to be comfortable in front of the camera nude.
I feel extremely lucky to have found Hanna to document my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period. If I had only known before how much I would cherish these photos I would have made this a priority for all of my pregnancies and births because these images are priceless!
I definitely feel bonded to Hanna through our photography journey. She was there for me during some of my most vulnerable moments and she did so without judgment or any negativity. Hanna did a spectacular job with my older children as well, learning their names and personalities and getting them to just be relaxed and at ease while being photographed. Hanna is such a treasure to me and I’m glad to have worked with her.
