Portraits by HelenSarah was around the 34 week mark when she came into the studio for her maternity photo session. She looks amazing.
She brought along a few outfits but also borrowed some of my maternity gowns, I love the boho design gown, it looks stunning, the perfect way to show off your baby bump.
Feel free to bring along props to your maternity session and now the weather is picking up we can do some photos outdoors too – the spring flowers are popping up everywhere!
I met baby Beau’s brother a few year’s ago at my pop up Christmas mini sessions I run every year with Two by Two toddler group in Fletchertown so it was lovely to meet George’s new baby brother for a photo session.
George was a great little poser, although plenty of bribery and games were needed to get those poses! Baby Beau was lovely and chilled out, not too keen to sleep but such a little cutie, love squishy baby cheeks!
The family had brought along some cuddly toys including some that have been crocheted by a friend – such great quality! I always love to compare babies to cuddly toys in terms of size!
After photos of baby on his own it was time for photos with Mum and Dad too, these are my favoruite kind of photos where your little one is cuddled up to you and you are all cosy in your own little bubble.
If you are expecting a new arrival soon drop me a message to book in a newborn photo session, these usually take place in my studio in Fletchertown, however, I can also do at home lifestyle newborn photos in Cumbria too.

Julie came to visit me in my studio in Fletchertown just before Christmas. It was therefore a great idea to wear a Christmas jumper!
Love Julie and her husband’s disney jumpers, so cute! Julie had brought along a couple of dresses to wear for the photo session too, as well as using some of my maternity gowns in my collection.
I love to incorporate props into maternity sessions like scan photos and baby booties. It’s always lovely to see baby in these props afterwards.
My studio is next to some pretty grounds for photos too so it’s always possible to do some outdoor portraits as well as inside too – especially in the winter!
If you are expecting a new arrival soon the best time to book in for maternity photos is around 34-36 weeks gestation. Drop me a message to capture your bumps!
I love to see little ones celebrating their birthday. If you didn’t fancy doing a cake smash then why not just book in for a mini photo session.
I provide balloons and my little teepee for the photo session.
Little Eliza really enjoyed the balloons, she even tried to eat them! She had lots of fun hiding in the teepee and peeping around at us.
After we had fun in the teepee Eliza’s doggy friends joined us for some photos too, there were many treats involved in getting these photos!
Such a lovely happy little girl, it was a pleasure to photograph!
Contact me if your little one is about to celebrate a birthday and you would like to capture these moments xx
I do a lot of photo sessions in the summertime on location in the Lakes so it was a nice change to visit a family who are holidaying in the Lakes for New Years.
Jane and her extended family were staying at Greenwood Holiday cottage in Wigton where I do a special offer for guests for photo sessions.
It was an icy but bright morning for their portraits, we started off inside by the Christmas tree which was lovely before we headed out into the gardens.
We had lots of fun with the family practising cool and crazy walks and huddling up for warmth. Jane’s grandchildren were so adorable hiding and running around and sharing chocolate!
Contact me if you are planning a Lake District holiday and would like some holiday portraits.
I have known Delilah since she was tiny so it was lovely to see their family grow again with the addition of little baby Robbie, a sibling for Aria and Delilah.
We did their photo session outside in Fletchertown in the fields of wild flowers and grasses.
We had fun with the kids lying down on a blanket and holding flowers and running around. I always love outdoors photos, especially when the weather is finally looking better!
Let me know if you would like some up to date family portraits in the summertime long grasses of Fletchertown.

The last time I saw Ava she was a little baby, she was just about to turn 1 when she popped into the studio with her Mum and Dad for her cake smash.
She wasn’t too keen to smile at the beginning but looked adorable in her party outfit! We did lots of singing and clapping to get some smiles.
After a bit of fun it was time to bring out the cake, Ava was very keen to just sample the buttercream but eventually with some help from Dad she was eating big chunks of cake and putting her feet in it!
After the cake smash we got clean with a bathtub full of bubbles. Ava had great fun splashing around.
Cake smashes are so much fun and a great way of capturing your little one’s first birthday!
Contact me for more details and how to book in.

The little fields and orchard’s surrounding my studio space in Fletchertown (near Wigton) are amazing in the summertime with long grasses and wild flowers.
I often run mini photo sessions for families, thirty minute portraits – ideal for kids with short attention spans!
Niamh and Myla looked so cute and had fun in the flowers, picking apples in the orchard and giving each other cuddles.
We had chance for photos with their parents too, I love how kids have the freedom to run around, makes for lovely natural photos.
Contact me if you would like to hear about summertime photo sessions in Fletchertown.

I have met Honey before and she wanted some portraits with her pet dog so it was a great idea to head down to the fields of Fletchertown for some photos
I love it in the summer when the grass is long and the wildflowers are growing. Plenty of space for running around and jumping.
There is an orchard too for shelter under apple trees, the perfect location for family photo sessions.
Give me a shout if you would like some up to date family portraits

I love to photograph families on location in the Lake District. Its the perfect way to celebrate a family holiday than with some photos to remember the occasion.
The Gyte family were all staying together on a farm right on the shore of Coniston so it was the perfect place for a photo session.
With several generations of family it was good to get photos of them all together and with the grandparents.
The gardens of the holiday cottage were lovely and it was just a short walk down to the lake for more photos, we had fun running around with the kids and capturing memories to treasure.
Contact me if you are on holiday in the Lakes with your family and you would like some photographs.
