Photography experiences designed around your family
Families arrive in all sorts of ways — some with sleepy newborns, some with curious toddlers — and there’s no right or wrong way to show up.
Mama Bear Photography is built around time and experience, not volume. Sessions are intentionally limited, allowing space to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the experience as it unfolds.
This thoughtful pace allows moments to develop naturally and authentically.
Maternity Photography Experience
My maternity sessions are calm, softly guided, and never rushed — designed so you relax into the experience and feel comfortable sharing your images for years to come.
“Ali made me feel really comfortable and confident.”
“The whole experience was so calm and relaxed.”
Whether this is your first pregnancy or your last, the experience is designed to feel relaxed, personal, and unhurried.
Newborn Photography Experience
Your newborn session is designed to be slow, calm, and entirely baby-led and parent-supported — with plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, and settling.
“As a first-time mum, I was really nervous — but Ali made everything feel so calm.”
“Her gentle, nurturing nature instantly put both me and my baby at ease. She was incredibly patient and attentive”
Whether your baby sleeps the whole time or is awake and wants extra comfort, the session flows around them, not the other way round.
Older Baby Photography
Older baby sessions are gently paced and thoughtfully guided, creating a relaxed environment where babies can move, explore, and interact naturally.
“It was such a relaxed and enjoyable experience.”
“She really took her time and followed our baby’s lead.”
The focus is on capturing real expressions, growing confidence, and those in-between moments parents love most.
Cake Smash
My Cake Smash sessions are joyful, playful, and pressure-free — never rushed or overwhelming.
“Ali made the whole experience so much fun.”
“Our little one was able to just be themselves.”
Your child has time to warm up, explore, and enjoy the moment, whether they dive straight into the cake or take their time. Mess, giggles, curiosity, and personality are always welcome here.
Family Photography
It’s always a good time for a family session! Full of dancing, singing, twirling - anything to make your child comfortable and that will ensure we get images you will all love!
“Captured our family perfectly without any pressure”
”So patient with our children and let them be themselves”
Family sessions are filled with laughter, movement, and connection — a relaxed celebration of who you are right now, captured in images you’ll treasure.
Because the experience matters just as much as the photos
If you’re looking for a family photographer who takes a thoughtful, unhurried approach and values genuine connection, I’d love to welcome you.
The Cabin Photography Studio
The Cabin is a secluded, serene purpose built photography studio where you can just switch off and enjoy your photographic experience with a hot or cold drink, some snacks and dedicated WiFi (if you want it)!
