Can’t recommend enough & wouldn’t take my babies anywhere else! Rachel did a newborn shoot for my little girl in January, and a 6 month shoot for her a couple weeks ago. Lovely studio, relaxed atmosphere and Rachel makes you feel at home! She’s an amazing photographer, and even more amazing with babies. She has so much patience and goes at the pace of your baby, there’s no rush at all. You can really see the passion she has for her job. Thanks so much again, can’t wait to bring her back next year!

Such a brilliant service ❤️ Put our Baby at ease by providing us time to have lots of cuddles and feeding to help comfort him in this new surrounding of the photoshoot. Highly recommended.

Such an amazing experience! Rachel is a fantastic photographer with so much skill when it comes to newborns! We had a newborn shoot and my daughter was 6 days old. Rachel put us at ease and it was not in the slightest stressful. My daughter at one point wanted fed constantly and Rachel was so patient and chatty making us feel even more relaxed and at home. The studio is lovely and the photos made me cry they are so amazing! I would recommend Rachel to anyone and everyone!

We are so happy we chose Rachel to photograph our newborn baby boy. I researched all the photographers in Carlisle and surrounding areas and Rachel’s images stood out from the crowd. Originally booked for a week after his due date and Rachel was so accommodating at rearranging the date when he arrived over a week late and I needed some extra time to recover. The whole photoshoot was the most amazing experience. She was fantastic with our son and made us feel completely at ease. The poses she had him in were the cutest and he was so content; it had me in tears just how perfect he looked. Already making plans to return for a Christmas photoshoot and a cake smash for his 1st birthday.

I can highly recommend Rachel for her newborn photography. Rachel has taken all 3 of my children's newborn photos and I wouldn't go anywhere else. She creates a warm, safe and relaxing space and is so lovely and patient with the babies especially if hungry and having to stop numerous times to feed and cuddle. The photos are always set up lovely and presented beautifully and make me cry happy tears.
