Surrey maternity photographer
Natural, timeless pregnancy photography
studio, outdoor golden hour and at-home sessions across Surrey
Pregnancy is one of the most extraordinary chapters of your life. The anticipation, the wonder, the quiet moments of connection with the baby growing inside you — and the remarkable strength and beauty of your body as it nurtures new life. These weeks pass quickly, and a maternity photoshoot is how you make sure this fleeting, precious time is honoured and remembered.
I'm Kayleigh, a specialist maternity and newborn photographer based in Milford, near Godalming in Surrey. I create natural, timeless maternity portraits for expectant mothers across Surrey — from Guildford, Woking and Farnham to Haslemere, Cranleigh and the surrounding villages. Whether you'd love a golden hour outdoor session, a calm and intimate studio shoot, or something relaxed and personal in the comfort of your own home, I'll create a beautiful experience that feels completely right for you.
Why book a maternity shoot?
Pregnancy is a season of change, strength and quiet beauty — and it deserves to be remembered.
A professional maternity photoshoot allows you to:
-
Pause and celebrate your pregnancy
-
Feel confident and beautifully photographed
-
Create meaningful keepsakes for your child
-
Document your growing family before baby arrives
Many of my clients later tell me they’re so grateful they made time for this — especially when these images become part of their child’s story.
your maternity experience
A Calm, Supportive & Personal Approach
From the moment you enquire, your session is thoughtfully planned around you. I’ll guide you through everything —
from what to wear, to posing, to choosing the perfect location.
Sessions are relaxed and gentle, with plenty of time for rest, outfit changes and reassurance.
No modelling experience needed — I’ll guide you every step of the way.
Outdoor golden hour sessions The golden hour light in the final hour before sunset is the most beautiful, flattering and cinematic natural light available — and it's the light I love most for maternity photography. I shoot outdoor maternity sessions at my private locations near Godalming, chosen specifically for their natural beauty and exceptional evening light. In spring and late summer, the heathland provides a rich, textured backdrop that changes dramatically with the seasons. From July to September, my meadow location offers long golden grasses and warm luminous light that gives maternity portraits an almost ethereal quality. Outdoor golden hour sessions are perfect for expectant mothers who feel most themselves in nature, and who want images with a relaxed, romantic, seasonal feel.
Natural light studio sessions — Milford, Godalming My home studio in Milford is a warm, calm and beautifully lit space that's ideal for maternity photography all year round. Softly lit with natural window light, it's a private, unhurried environment where you can relax completely — away from the unpredictability of the weather and the outside world. Studio sessions have a clean, timeless quality that focuses entirely on you, your bump and the people you love. They're particularly popular during the winter months and for expectant mothers who prefer the warmth and intimacy of an indoor setting.
At-home maternity sessions — Surrey There is something uniquely special about being photographed in your own home during pregnancy — surrounded by the space where your baby will grow up, in the environment that is most familiar and comfortable to you. At-home maternity sessions have a deeply personal, lifestyle quality that studio and outdoor sessions can't quite replicate. I travel to homes across Surrey for maternity sessions, bringing my expertise and a careful eye for natural light to your own space. Sessions within 30 minutes of Milford are included in the session fee. A travel supplement of £25 applies for locations 30–45 minutes away, and £40 for locations 45–60 minutes away. For locations beyond 60 minutes, please get in touch for a personalised quote.
You’re welcome to choose the setting that feels most you — or we can decide together.

Why book your maternity and newborn sessions together?
-
Booking your maternity and newborn sessions together means your newborn slot is guaranteed — no risk of my diary being full when your baby arrives. It also means I can create a consistent visual thread across both sets of images, so that your maternity portraits and your newborn photographs feel like the connected chapters of the same beautiful story.
-
Many of my Surrey clients choose this option for the peace of mind alone — knowing their newborn session is already booked before their baby has even arrived is one less thing to think about in those busy final weeks of pregnancy.
When to book your maternity session?
The ideal time for maternity photography is between 28 and 36 weeks of pregnancy — when your bump is beautifully round and prominent, but you're still feeling comfortable enough to move freely and enjoy the session. Many expectant mothers find the sweet spot is around 32 to 34 weeks.
I recommend getting in touch to book as early as possible — particularly if you're interested in the Bump to Baby Experience, where securing your newborn slot in advance is essential. Maternity sessions can be arranged relatively quickly, but availability during peak periods fills up faster than you might expect.
If you're already beyond 36 weeks and worried it might be too late, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Every pregnancy is different, and I'm always happy to discuss whether a session is still possible for you.

Who can be included?
Your maternity session is about your growing family — not just your bump. Partners, husbands, children and well-behaved family pets are all warmly welcomed and very much encouraged. Some of the most moving images from a maternity session are the ones that show the full picture — a partner's hands cradling the bump, an older sibling pressing a cheek to mummy's tummy, the quiet togetherness of a family on the eve of everything changing.
Whether you'd like an intimate solo session or a full family portrait, I'll make sure everyone feels relaxed, natural and beautifully photographed.

Testimonials
Kayleigh-Anne produced the most stunning pregnancy photos for me on my 38th week of pregnancy, she picked a beautiful setting amongst nature, at golden hour.
I absolutely love these photos and couldn't be happier with the results. Kayleigh has an amazing eye and got the most perfect angles and variations of my bump. I now have these photos to cherish for the rest of my life. Such special memories.
Kayleigh is so kind and made me feel comfortable, immediately upon meeting her. I can't wait for a shoot with my new born baby now!
Highly recommend this to absolutely anyone considering Kayleigh as their photographer.
Grace - Godalming, Surrey
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful experience. From the moment we arrived, she made us all feel so comfortable and at ease.
She was so warm, patient, and kind with my daughter, and made the whole session feel relaxed and enjoyable for all of us.
The photos she captured are absolutely stunning. She has such a special talent for capturing those little, meaningful moments as well as the bigger ones, and it really shows in every image.
It meant so much to be able to include my husband and daughter in the shoot, and she made us all feel involved and special throughout.
I’m beyond grateful for these memories and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a maternity photographer.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!
