Hello, I’m Katie
I’m a Yorkshire mum of two - a girl and a boy both under the age of 3 - and so I know all too well how fleeting a pregnancy really is.
I started Bloom & Bust Studio shortly after the birth of my second child. Having been lucky enough to have had two straightforward and enjoyable pregnancies, I wanted to celebrate my body and remember all the feelings that came with it. The flutters that became kicks. The curve of my bump. The inner pride of knowing I was carrying something precious inside me.
I had a sculpture made of my bump during my second pregnancy, and was so inspired by the process that I immediately knew I wanted to create sculptures of my own. Meeting mums-to-be and talking with them about all the exciting things to come is something I’ll never grow tired of! Having had to travel further afield than I would have liked for my sculpture, I also knew I needed to bring this opportunity to the women of Yorkshire, and beyond.
I am truly in awe of the female body and everything that women undergo during their transformation into motherhood. But I am also passionate about celebrating our bodies in all stages of life, and want to empower you to do the same.
Through my sculptures, my goal is to capture and preserve these fleeting moments in a way that feels timeless, elegant and deeply personal.
Every sculpture is created with patience, precision and genuine care, ensuring you receive something truly worthy of becoming part of your story.
