You should post your code and the actual error traceback. What you're
describing should work -- at least they way that you've described it.
Could there be a typo in your code?

This works for me:

class Article:
    def __init__(self):
        self.headline = Headline()

class Headline:
    pass

class Photo:
    pass

a = Article()
