The warmest of welcomes when we arrived. Even my husband who hates having his photo taken felt so at ease and most importantly so did our one year old daughter! It was the most stress free, relaxed and easy one and a half hours! Communication post shoot was amazing as was Suzis help and advice. We are absolutely thrilled with the beautiful photographs Suzi captured on the fay and cant wait to have them hanging on our wall. We will definitely be returning if we have baby number 2!

Ive had both my boys photographed by Suzi and Ive recommended her to everyone I know who has had a baby! The end products are absolutely beautiful, Suzi manages to capture their little personalities beautifully, which is no doubt due to the lovely relaxed environment and way in which she works. All of the props and toys are gorgeous, and we all had a great time being there. 100% recommend!

Is there a 10+ star option? Suzi provides an incredibly professional service from start to finish. I have loved the ease of communication and her friendly and warm approach to her clients. After looking for a photographer for ages, I came across Little White Photography on instagram and got in touch straight away. We have not been disappointed at all, our session in Suzi's lovely home studio was relaxed, fun and now something we plan to do as a family annually. The photos Suzi took of us are stunning and so cleverly captured priceless natural moments we otherwise would never see - she's a miracle

We really couldn't be happier with the photos Suzi captured of our 8 month old. I was thinking about getting photos for a while but wanted ones that would look both natural and timeless. Suzi does this perfectly. All the emphasis is on the babies and capturing their little personalities and tiny details. My husband was unsure about booking to start with but even he admitted he really enjoyed going to the studio and loves the collage of photos about to go up in our dining room. I'd recommend Suzi to all my friends with babies.

I can't recommend Suzi at Little White Photography enough! Our photos shoot was so much fun and Suzi made us feel so at ease. We were so impressed with the photographs and Suzi edited and got them out to us way faster than we were expecting.
