Hey, I’m Rachel

A trusted photographer, giving busy mums their place in the picture

Motherhood moves fast—one moment, you’re rocking them to sleep, and the next, they’re running ahead, growing into someone new every day. I know firsthand how fleeting these moments are, and I also know how easy it is for mums to be the ones taking the photos, but never in them. That’s why I do what I do.

I create a space where you don’t have to stress about outfits, wrangle the kids, or feel like you need to “do more” to be worthy of being in the frame. My sessions are relaxed, playful, and designed to capture the real, beautiful moments—because one day, these images will be more than photos. They’ll be your family’s most cherished memories, proof of the love, connection, and warmth that fills your home. You deserve to be seen, to be present in your family’s story, and to have tangible reminders of just how deeply loved you are.

Let’s capture your story—exactly as it is

you may be wondering

When is the best time to book a newborn session?

The best time to book is before your baby arrives, ideally in your second or third trimester. Newborn sessions are usually scheduled within the first 5-14 days after birth, when babies are sleepiest and easiest to settle. However, I can absolutely capture beautiful images of older newborns too!

What if my baby is unsettled or won’t sleep during the session?

No worries at all! I have years of experience in gently soothing and settling babies. My sessions allow plenty of time for feeds, cuddles, and breaks, so we go at your baby’s pace. Awake or asleep, we’ll capture gorgeous, natural moments.

What should we wear for our newborn photos?

I provide a selection of soft, timeless outfits for your baby and have a beautiful client wardrobe for mums, filled with flattering, neutral-toned dresses. I also offer styling guidance for the whole family to ensure your photos feel cohesive and effortlessly beautiful.

Can parents and siblings be included in the session?

Absolutely! I encourage it. These photos are just as much about your family’s love and connection as they are about your baby. I’ll gently guide you into relaxed, natural poses so you can focus on cuddling and soaking in those precious early moments.

Where do newborn sessions take place?

You can choose between a studio session for soft, timeless portraits or an in-home lifestyle session that captures the warmth and familiarity of your own space. Both options result in stunning, heartfelt images that celebrate this special time in your family’s story.

Are you ready to do this?

Pregnancy is such a beautiful and fleeting moment in your life, and there’s no better way to preserve it than through stunning photos that tell your unique story. If you’re feeling uncertain, I get it—sometimes it’s hard to picture yourself in front of the camera. But trust me, this is your time to shine, to capture the glow, and to celebrate the anticipation of your little one. I’ll be there every step of the way to make you feel comfortable, beautiful, and completely yourself. Let’s create something timeless that you’ll treasure forever, so you can look back on this chapter and smile, knowing you captured it all just as it was.
