Welcome to my
Studio
Located in a countryside village just outside of Biggleswade in Bedfordshire, my studio is designed to feel like home from home. With convenient parking right outside the studio door, facilities for all needs, this cosy and comfortable environment creates a relaxed atmosphere, easing the transition for your little ones. I focus on using natural light for my style of photography to encourage calm and natural memories to be captured. Reflecting the genuine connection and bond within your family, for you to treasure for years to come.
With years of experience in family photography and having undertaken newborn posing safety training, you can rest assured your little one is in safe hands. Following newborn sessions, many families return for cake smash celebrations or first birthday family shoots. The styling for all shoots are kept simple, natural and timeless. Providing you with images that will stand the test of time.
I would love to welcome you into the studio soon!

"We used Natalie for a family newborn shoot and we couldn’t recommend Natalie more"
From her beautiful, relaxed studio, to the warm friendly person Natalie is. We instantly felt at ease during the shoot. At no time did we feel under any rush, when the baby needed feeding, we took breaks, if we had any ideas on photos we’d like, Natalie was more than willing to give them a try.
In 24 hours we received gorgeous preview images. Prior to her turnaround time we were then surprised to have the full gallery back. The images Natalie created went above and beyond our expectations, a gallery full of gorgeous images for us to treasure forever. A perfect variety of different images.

"Forever grateful for the photos and memories we have from you!"
You are just the LOVELIEST person who put me at complete ease with a toddler and newborn! Your calm, warm and friendly nature was perfect for our family shoot. Your little studio is just so dreamy too, I could have stayed all day! Absolutely love the light and natural images you captured, something that really stood out to me about your style.
– Naomi Garner
"Perfect baby environment, my twin boys were handled so gently, Natalie was so great with them when they stirred whilst shooting!"
Incredible afternoon, felt so at ease and the studio was so beautiful and well thought out for guests. And the pictures are so chic and clean, utterly perfect. Professional and personable. That’s all before the full shoot has been sent ! Thank you Natalie!
– Danielle Lister
"Natalie was truly incredible and an absolute treasure to have doing our Newborn Photoshoot!"
We felt completely at ease, were made to feel very welcome from the offset and came away feeling so excited to see the photos. The whole manner in which she conducts her work is impeccable and the photos we’ve received so far in the sneak peak are perfect & will be treasured for a lifetime.
As part of the shoot, Natalie held and comforted our daughter, she handled her with such care and appreciation that you could tell you she was in great hands, exactly what you’d want to feel with your baby!
The whole experience means I would so happily recommend Natalie to anyone and everyone! We’d certainly use her again in a heartbeat!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book a studio session?
Booking a studio session is simple! Fill out the contact form on my website with your preferred date and session type. I will reach out to confirm availability and discuss the details. A signed contract and a deposit will secure your session.
How much notice do you need to book a studio session?
For all studio sessions, a few months in advance is ideal. However, I sometimes have last minute availability so please get in touch to enquire as soon as you can. Please specify when enquiring if you cannot do a weekday booking, as spaces are limited for weekend slots, especially during peak wedding season.
How do I book a newborn shoot?
For newborn shoots, you can get in touch as soon as you know your due date. If little one has already arrived, it’s always worth getting in touch, in case I have any late availability. As soon as you get in touch, I will pencil your due date into my diary, leaving some spaces before and after. Once little one arrives, please let me know and we will then book in your session day and time, ideally within the first 2 weeks after birth.
If you are expecting to have a caesarian, we can work from this date to pencil in a day and time for your session in advance, with flexibility to move the session once baby has arrived, if needed. Newborn shoots are usually captured on weekdays, which typically suits most families in those first couple of weeks. Some weekend slots are also possible if required, please specify you will need a weekend slot when enquiring.
What types of studio sessions do you offer?
I offer a variety of studio sessions including maternity, newborn, family, cake smash and seasonal mini shoots throughout the year. Including spring inspired, autumnal woodland sessions and neutral Christmas styled sessions.
When will we receive our photos?
You can expect to receive your edited images within 2-3 weeks after your session. I take great care in editing each photo to ensure they meet my high standards. A sneak peek will be provided shortly after your session.
Do you provide props and outfits for sessions?
Yes, I provide a range of props, outfits for babies and mum, wraps for newborns. I focus on simple, natural, and timeless styling. You are also welcome to bring any personal items or outfits you’d like to include.
Can we order prints and albums from our studio session?
Absolutely! I offer a variety of high quality prints, albums, and wall art to showcase your beautiful images, find out more on my products page.
