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.

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 🤍

Can we just take a moment for the dads…
Waiting, watching in awe as you grew a tiny human.
Falling in love all over again before they even arrived.

These moments matter 🤍

Older babies around 6–9 months truly have my heart 🤍

They’re learning to sit, finding their tiny feet, and enjoying tummy time with such quiet determination. There’s a gentleness to this stage, a pause before the rush of crawling and climbing begins.

And it’s even more special when there are older sisters nearby — loving, watching, cuddling — adding layers of connection and warmth to every moment.

Don’t wait.. get booked in 💕💕

A few days late but happy birthday, Lola 🎉💕

Lola travelled four whole hours for her cake smash session… and it was worth every mile. She smeared bolognese over my shoulder, gave the best cuddles 🥰, filled the studio with belly laughs — and even took her first steps right here 💕

Thank you so much for coming and trusting me with such special memories. These are the moments I’ll never take for granted.

✨ Now booking cake smash sessions through to May 2026 ✨

Here’s a little behind-the-scenes peek at what a newborn session with me really looks like… gentle, natural posing with no themed props, just your tiny baby, exactly as they are. 💕

Thank you Mummy Anjali for taking these great shots of the session.

Your photographs deserve to live somewhere other t

Your photographs deserve to live somewhere other than your camera roll 🤍
One of the best ways to keep those memories alive is by framing them — seeing your babies, your family, your story on the wall every day truly changes how those moments feel.

If you’re not sure how to display them, my number one tip is to hop onto Pinterest and search “photo wall inspiration”. You’ll find endless ideas: gallery walls, minimal grids, statement frames, mixed sizes… whatever suits your home. Save a few you love and use them as a guide — it makes planning your wall so much easier.

✨ Christmas framing deadline:
If you’d like framed prints in time for Christmas, please place your order by 1st December. After that date I can’t guarantee delivery before the big day.

Let’s get your favourite moments out of your phone and up on your walls where they belong 🤍📸

Think newborn photography is only about sleeping babies? Think again!

While those peaceful sleepy shots do provide some of the most perfect poses, some of the most beautiful moments happen when babies are awake. The way they look around, stretch and make adorable faces. These are the real moments that tell the story of your baby’s first few days.
