The story of a photographer


Hi, I’m Madara – a local photographer based in Oldham, Greater Manchester. I specialise in emotive, natural photography for growing families, including pregnancy, newborn, and family photography, as well as weddings and commercial imagery.


Whether I’m capturing your baby's first days, a relaxed family session, or intimate wedding photos of your special day, I focus on real moments, genuine emotion, and storytelling through timeless images.


A Passion That Started Young


My love for photography began at just 15 years old with a simple digital camera. Over the years, I’ve worked with some incredibly talented local photographers and built a career in product and commercial photography, but I always found myself gravitating back to what I love most - emotional connection that comes with lifestyle and wedding photography. 


Real Families, Real Moments


In 2021, I joined a busy portrait studio in Greater Manchester, photographing everything from bump-to-baby sessions and cake smashes, to family and pet portraits. It really was a hands on experience that thought me a lot, but I knew I was meant to do things my own way.


So in 2023, I took the leap and became a freelance photographer, launching my own photography business in Oldham – and it all just clicked.

Today, I work with families and couples across Oldham, Manchester, and the surrounding areas, offering:


  • Pregnancy & maternity photography
  • Newborn photography
  • Family sessions
  • Wedding photography
  • Commercial & product imagery



I create relaxed, natural photos that reflect your story, your love, and your connection – with no rush or pressure.
