We had a great experience with Kate, capturing beautiful shoots of our 6 week old and 2 year old. Kate just took control which was exactly what we wanted, she made us feel very welcome and relaxed, she was even more than happy to settle our baby whenever she needed to. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic shoot with Kate, she put us at ease really quickly. She was great at wrangling our grumpy two year old. We are super happy with the results.
I'm sure we will be back!

We had such a fun time in Kate's studio having some mum and son photos taken.

When we got the link to our shoot I was overwhelmed at how natural and creative our finished photos were.

These photos capture every piece of mine and my sons love and personalities...We will cherish them and the memories forever, and look forward to going back before my toddler becomes a school boy.

I would highly recommend Kate as the perfect professional family photographer 📸 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧

I recently took my 10 month old son to Kate’s studio for an “older baby” session. She did a brilliant job of making us both feel at ease. The time passed quickly as it was such an enjoyable experience. I am delighted with the end result - the photos are brilliant! I would recommend Kate without question and will definitely be back for more. Thanks so much Kate!

Kate is wonderful, and so talented. We went to her studio with our 9 month old baby and it was just lovely! We were there for just over an hour for the 'older baby' shoot. Kate is very calm and patient, full of photo ideas, but also made sure to get the snaps we had asked for. She also got lots of smiles from our girl, so big thumbs up there!

Kate processed the photos really quickly and we went to view them at her studio. There was no pressure to purchase the more expensive package - although we did as all the photos are beautiful and we couldn't resist. Thank you Kate 💗 We will be back!
