    My studio is nestled in a quiet part of leafy Wilmslow in East Cheshire, just minutes from the A34 bypass and the motorway. Easy to reach, and with space to park, my clients come from Cheadle, Stockport, Manchester and throughout Cheshire and the North West, not just Wilmslow and Alderley Edge.

    The ‘Cake-less’ session. They started as a si The ‘Cake-less’ session. They started as a simple alternative to a Cakesmash… For little ones who didn’t love the mess, or for families wanting something a little more budget-friendly 🤍 But my cakeless sessions have quietly become so much more… They’ve turned into a way to come back, year after year. To pause time, just for a moment, and capture your little ones as they grow ✨ Today’s gorgeous girl first came to me as a baby… and today I’m setting up the studio to welcome her back for her 3rd birthday shoot 🥹 No cake. No fuss. Just them, exactly as they are in this chapter 🤍 And honestly… that’s the magic. #3rdbirthday #nocakesmash #cheshiremums #manchestermums #3rdbirthdayphotoshoot
    There’s something so special about capturing the There’s something so special about capturing the whole story, not just the cake 🎂✨ This year my timeless white backdrop has been your absolute favourite (and I can totally see why 🤍), but what I’ve loved even more is how many of you are asking to jump in for a few photos too… YES PLEASE 🙌 Those little arms wrapped around you, the giggles, the proud looks… that’s the magic. And it deserves to be remembered just as much as the cake-covered chaos 🥹 We always start with family shots first, while everyone’s fresh and relaxed, before we move on to baby’s portraits and then the fun part… CAKE! 🎂 So if you’re thinking about booking a cakesmash, this is your sign. Don’t stay behind the camera. Get in there, cuddle your babies and be part of the memories 🤍 #cakesmashphotography #firstbirthdayphotoshoot #cheshirebabyphotographer #manchestercakesmash #cheshirecakesmash
    5 years ago, I walked away from a career I had pou 5 years ago, I walked away from a career I had poured my heart and soul into. Overnight, everything changed… and I found myself starting again, with no clear plan and no idea where I was heading. Life has a funny way of throwing the biggest curveballs when you least expect it — but I truly believe it’s in those moments you have to stop, listen, and trust where you’re being guided. Now, my mornings look a little different… school drop-offs, a quiet walk through these beautiful paths, birds singing, sunshine on my face… before heading into the studio to do something I absolutely love 🤍 And honestly? I wouldn’t change it for the world. #cheshiremums #newbornphotographercheshire #cakesmashphotographer #maternityphotographernorthwest

    Waiting patiently for this little one’s safe arr Waiting patiently for this little one’s safe arrival 💕 Maternity sessions have been so popular lately, and I am absolutely loving the confidence and joy you mamas are bringing into the studio. So many mums tell me they simply want to remember this chapter; to celebrate what their bodies have done, growing and nurturing a tiny miracle. Pregnancy can feel long in the moment, but it passes so quickly, and these photos become such a special reminder of that incredible journey. ✨ Best time for maternity shoots are between 30-35 weeks… but in reality this month I’ve have so many come at 38/39 weeks after a last minute change of heart! 💓 #maternityphotoshoot #pregnancyphotoshootmanchester #newbornstudiophotographercheshire

    “What actually is a Cakesmash?” 🎂 I get “What actually is a Cakesmash?” 🎂 I get asked this all the time! Here’s a screen record of a recent session showing whats in a full Cakesmash gallery. It’s done in 3 simple parts… 🤍 Clean portraits first – capturing all those tiny details before the mess begins. 🎂 Then the cake – messy hands, big reactions and lots of giggles. 🛁 Finally, a splash in a cute little tub to clean up and finish with the sweetest smiles. Relaxed, baby-led and full of personality ✨ Any questions about Cakesmash sessions? Pop them below 👇 #Cakesmash #FirstBirthday #BabyPhotography #ChapterTwoPhotographyeshirecakesmash
    Yesterday’s Mother’s Day Minis were just so sp Yesterday’s Mother’s Day Minis were just so special 🥹🤍 I absolutely loved spending time with these gorgeous mummies and their little ones. Watching the cuddles, the giggles, the shy smiles and the big squeezes… it’s such a privilege to capture these moments. Lucky me 🫶 My sessions are always super relaxed — we take everything at the children’s pace, no pressure, no rush. Just love, snuggles and natural moments that you’ll treasure forever 🤍 There’s still a little availability left for this coming Friday if you’d love to be in the photos with your babies (however big they are!).

    Before she becomes a big sister 🤍 One of my Before she becomes a big sister 🤍 One of my favourite parts of maternity sessions is making space for this chapter too… just mama and her first baby, soaking each other in before everything changes. This session was completely relaxed and led by her toddler. No pressure to pose. No expectations. Just cuddles with mummy, little nose kisses, baby songs, giggles, games and those quiet in-between moments that mean the most. We let her lead. We played. We sang. We paused when needed. Because this season matters too. #cheshirematernityphotographer #wilmslowphotographer #maternitysession #motherhoodunplugged #pregnancyjourney
    I often get asked… “during a Cake Smash sessio I often get asked… “during a Cake Smash session, can we get some family photos too?” Of course you can! 🤍 These sessions are such a special milestone and it’s lovely to capture you all together as well as celebrating your little one turning one. My top tip? Choose the Timeless White backdrop. It gives us more space, keeps everything clean and classic. We always start with the family portraits first while everyone is fresh… then we move onto the fun 🎂 If there’s a toddler sibling who’s starting to get a little fed up, don’t worry — there’s a lovely footpath nearby where one parent can take them for a little wander. It gives them a reset and allows baby to enjoy their Cake Smash without too many distractions. Relaxed, natural, and completely stress-free — just how it should be 🤍 #cakesmashphotography #firstbirthdayphotos #familyphotographer #cheshirephotographer #firstbirthday mumlife cakesmashcheshire
