We are thrilled to present this prestigious award to

Tianna J-Williams

Tianna is an APNPI Ambassador, is accredited in Maternity with APNPI, is an APNPI educator, an incredible contributor to the APNPI community, and she creates some of the most stunning imagery in Maternity Photography we’ve seen!

Tianna is based in Birmingham, United Kingdom where she has a small studio near to the city centre. Her love for this speciality grew from her career as a professional and registered nurse and midwife.

Whilst photography began as a hobby after the birth of her first daughter, she quickly fell in love with the craft and soon became consumed by the desire to be creative. After navigating a few specialities, Tianna settled on the art of pregnancy, motherhood and newborn photography because these genres in coalescence with her passion for women becoming mothers and their journey through motherhood inspires her daily.

Tianna also enjoys creative and styled projects with a special interest in culture which often can be appreciated in her work.
