We had our daughter's newborn shoot done 3 years ago now. Being our second child we wanted the photo's to compliment her older sisters. Rachael was great at making sure she had everything she needed before coming to our house to do the shoot which with a newborn & toddler at the time was amazing. Photo's were exactly what we wanted, thanks so much

We booked Rachael for the Christmas mini shoot. At first our youngest wouldn't play ball and I thought she was never going to be able to do it. How wrong was I! The photographs turned out great and she captured some lovely moments of my kids. The whole experience was great from start to finish. Rachael put so much effort into our package and we're really happy with them. Highly recommended Rachael if you are wanting high quality photos if your kids/family.

Every year we look forward to the Christmas mini shoot, Rachael is professional, talented & always keen to go the extra mile! She makes you feel at ease whilst the camera is clicking away & also offers good value for money. We cant wait to have Rachael capture our wedding day in a couple of years time, she really is excellent!!

We had a newborn photoshoot with Rachel and absolutely love every minute of it, so accommodating to our very greedy baby who constantly wanted milk, no pressure to rush, such a relaxed atmosphere and the results where amazing, loved our photos so much. Highly recommend Rachael, amazing work and an amazing lady:)

We are returning customers to Rachel, weve been to see her three times. Twice for newborn shots and once for Christmas minis - absolutely amazing photos on all occasions. She is brilliant with the children, gets the best from them, has so much patience and she is such a lovely person to deal with. Photos are absolutely stunning, just perfect, couldn't be happier with them. Highly recommended!
