Rachel Hendrie Fine Art Photography is a specialist maternity photographer based in Coatbridge, offering an award‑winning, fine‑art approach that celebrates the quiet strength and beauty of pregnancy. Rachel’s work is rooted in a desire to create elegant, timeless portraits that honour this unique stage of life. She frames each session around the person you are becoming — not just the momentary shape of your bump — so that your images feel deeply personal and enduring. Why choose Rachel? Her reputation for calm, confident direction helps even the most camera‑shy clients relax. With an eye for soft light, considered composition and subtle detail, Rachel crafts images that feel intimate rather than staged. The result is a portfolio of pregnancy photographs that read like heirlooms: simple, refined and full of emotion. Rachel’s process is attentive and collaborative. Every maternity session begins with a short consultation to understand your vision, comfort level and any styling preferences. On the day, she focuses on creating a peaceful atmosphere where natural interaction and gentle posing produce authentic moments. Rachel guides poses with a light touch, encouraging movement and connection so each image reflects real feeling rather than forced smiles. As a fine‑art practitioner, Rachel values quality over quantity. She concentrates on creating a small collection of beautifully finished images that you’ll want to live with on your walls. While maternity is her specialist focus, Rachel also brings the same thoughtful approach to family and portrait sessions, helping clients preserve relationships and milestones with flattering, natural imagery. Above all, Rachel’s work is driven by a genuine passion for photographing life’s transitions. She understands how meaningful maternity portraits become—how they document love, anticipation and the quiet courage of expectant mothers.
