Emma Jean Photography in Clydach specialises in studio portrait photography for families, maternity and children. I create relaxed, authentic images with a baby‑led, prop‑based approach.
I’m Emma Jean — a portrait specialist based in Clydach, Swansea, who loves photographing families, mums‑to‑be and little ones. My studio approach centres on making sessions feel warm, relaxed and genuine so the real personality and connections shine through. Whether you’re celebrating a pregnancy, welcoming a newborn, or simply want updated family portraits, I aim to capture memories you’ll treasure for years. Why choose my Clydach portrait studio? I believe strong portraits come from calm, natural moments rather than stiff poses. I bring a friendly, easygoing energy to every shoot and let the session unfold at your family’s pace. For newborn work I follow a baby‑led philosophy — always prioritising safety and comfort — and for maternity and family sessions I encourage relaxed interaction and subtle direction so you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. My studio is a private, secure space where you can relax and focus on each other. I supply a curated collection of gowns, outfits and real, tactile props alongside my lifestyle set‑ups so we can style sessions to suit your taste. I specialise in creating timeless, soft portraits with a focus on connection: the little hands, the shy smiles, the quiet moments between siblings and parents. I also understand the practical side of family life — I work with children of all ages and plan sessions to minimise stress and maximise authentic expressions. How I work: from our first message I’ll guide you through what to expect, help with outfit ideas and discuss any special requests. On the day I keep the atmosphere calm and playful, using gentle prompts and simple, creative directions to capture natural interactions. After the session I carefully edit your chosen images to ensure each portrait is presented beautifully and consistently. I opened Emma Jean Photography to celebrate families and the extraordinary little moments that pass so quickly. If you’re in Clydach or the Swansea area and want a friendly, experienced photographer who specialises in portrait studio work for maternity, newborns and families, get in touch to arrange your session — I’d love to help you capture the story of your family.
