Welcome to Wild Ginger Photography
Timeless, light-filled photography for babies, children and families.
At Wild Ginger Photography
we are focused on YOU
Let’s Make Something Beautiful!
Life moves fast. Babies grow quickly, family dynamics shift, and even our pets get older. But the love in your family- the way you laugh together, the way you hold each other- deserves to be remembered.
If you’re looking for maternity, newborn, baby milestone, or family photography in Manchester that is light-filled, heartfelt, and pet-friendly- we’d love to work with you.
Why Choose Wild Ginger Photography?

Sessions for Every Stage
From early newborn days to sitting and crawling- we capture all the beautiful stages of your baby’s first year (and childhood beyond).
Pet-Friendly Sessions
Pets are welcome in the studio, and we take care to photograph them safely, with patience and warmth.
Bespoke Artwork & Prints
Choose from handcrafted albums, keepsake boxes, or custom wall art. Our printed products are designed to last and to be loved.

Our Photography Sessions
Celebrate the beauty of motherhood with a calm, natural session that highlights your glow and connection with your baby. Timeless portraits for this once-in-a-lifetime chapter.
Soft, still, and full of wonder- our newborn sessions are gentle and baby-led. Ideal for babies up to 21 days old, with time for feeding, cuddles, and calm posing.
Perfect for when your baby starts sitting confidently (typically around 5-9 months). These playful, personality-packed sessions are styled simply to let your baby shine.

A fun, messy, and joy-filled way to celebrate your baby’s first birthday. These playful sessions capture giggles, curiosity, and the sweetest milestone memories.
Baby & Growing Up
We love capturing your baby as they grow—whether they’re crawling, clapping, or starting to explore the world. These sessions are ideal for 3 months up to 3 years old.
We welcome animals in our sessions. Whether it’s a sweet moment between your child and your dog, or a full family portrait with your cat curled up on your lap—we make it possible.
Step into a magical woodland setting where light, nature, and imagination meet. These sessions are styled to feel dreamy and whimsical, perfect for children who love to play, explore, and create timeless fairytale-like portraits outdoors.
As your child grows, so does their unique personality and style. Our sessions for older children and teens are relaxed, natural, and confidence-building—capturing them just as they are, whether playful, thoughtful, or bold.
Bridal Portrait Experience
A beautiful gift for your future husband or wife, these sessions capture you with elegance and intimacy before the big day. Styled with a touch of boudoir romance—or kept classic and timeless—they’re a celebration of you and your love story.

Owner and photographer
Nika
Nika started the business in 2013. The first couple of years of Wild Ginger Photography was covering mainly make over sessions (mother- daughter, boudoir, modelling portfolios) and family portraits. In 2018 she qualified as a newborn photographer to continue her studio journey focusing on newborns, babies and new families. This combination allow her to be an expert in all your photography needs!
Nika is mum to 8 year-old Leo and loves being able to spend quality time with her family. She knows just how quickly your little one's can grow up, as she was once photographing her son as a baby in the studio!
She loves being able to play with her ever-growing family of cats (she is currently at 6!) and spend time with her partner Stuart.
Chief entertainer
Stuart
Stuart normally sits in the corner, drinks his tea and talks IT. Once he emerges from his corner cave he entertain clients and makes cracking brews. Stuart didn't like his headshots taken so this is the nearest representation of Stuart possible.
