Hey I’m Kim,

Your FRIENDLY, DOWN TO EARTH Hertfordshire & Bedfordshire newborn & family photographer. My sessions are gentle, nurturing & unhurried.

You’re about to embark upon the most transformational journey of your life. Motherhood is a story so unique to each & every one of us, your story deserves celebration & you deserve to have beautiful photos for each & every chapter. From the very beginning of your journey in pregnancy, the liminal space as you reach the final stretch. You have shared your body & nurtured new life, your world expanding rapidly before your very eyes. You may nervous and camera shy, but trust me when I say you are in gentle & kind hands, my promise is to make you feel completely at ease, relaxed & nurtured. Together we’ll create a precious time capsule of those tender early newborn, softly, calmly & unhurried. I have been trusted by mothers to capture them in pregnancy, newborn life and raising their families for nearly 10 years. It is an honour, I love what I do, and I do it with my whole heart. Because every mother deserves to be beautifully celebrated throughout her journey of mothering.

A NURTURING NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE FOR HERTFORDSHIRE & BEDFORDSHIRE FAMILIES

All of my sessions are intentionally slow, especially for newborns & new parents; I really want you to leave the studio feeling rested, looked after & on cloud 9 of your newborn bubble. If you’re camera shy, don’t worry, I promise you’re in good company. I will gently guide you throughout, nothing is staged, cringey, awkward or posed. My family sessions are relaxed, fun & enjoyable; thoughtfully planned to get to know you & the people you love. My promise is to give you an effortless & memorable photoshoot that will leave you feeling excited for your next. This is my invitation for parents to place themselves at the heart of their childrens memories. This season of raising little people is wild & oh so fleeting, I want to capture you all, just as you are, here in this season, perfectly imperfect. The hard days & the stars aligned days. All are welcome here. True magic happens when we feel comfortable to be ourselves, no poses or forced smiles, that is my promise to you. An honest, warm, heart-led experience & family photos that are full of joy.

I can’t wait to tell your story

All my love

Gentle & Nurturing Studio Newborn Photography in Hertfordshire & Bedfordshire

I specialise in warm, timeless newborn maternity & family photography in Hertfordshire & Bedfordshire for families who feel camera shy. My studio sessions are gentle, relaxed & unhurried. I have a cosy natural light Bedfordshire-based home studio where my newborn & maternity sessions are held, the perfect soft place to land after giving birth. You’ll be warmly greeted at the door with a hug, freshly baked pastries & delicious tea & coffee. We’ll sit & catch up first, taking our time to talk through anything you want before your session begins. My newborn studio sessions are parent & baby led; flexible, gentle, relaxed, unhurried & nurturing. I never book any other sessions in that day so you have my undivided time & attention. Sessions are tailored to your needs. No props or stiff posing, just time spent together soaking in your precious newborn baby. I have the softest cashmere newborn outfits and timeless flowing dresses or knitted two pieces for you. I welcome families from all over Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire Cambridge and London.

Family photos act as a little time portal, a way to transport you right back to the season you’re living now, the chapter in your motherhood and family story. Together we will capture all the precious seasons, from pregnancy bump, teeny tiny newborn details, the way your baby felt heavy on your chest, the first steps of your one year old.

For outdoor sessions in the warmer months, we can retreat to the beautiful Hertfordshire countryside, explore an enchanting forest or let the day unfold around your natural rhythms at home. My promise to you is to create warm, honest & authentic family photos that feel like home. Capturing connection over perfection, the real essence of you & the people you love, the life you share together, the rhythms & traditions you hold.

I will do this with sincerity & heart, giving you a cherished & memorable experience for you & the people you love.

to give you An experience you’ll cherish forever

“Our newborn session with Kim was absolutely wonderful. The whole experience felt soft, cozy, and full of warmth — just like the beautiful photos she captured. The studio was filled with gentle chatter, laughter, and even the delicious smell of the pastry Kim had baked that morning, which made everything feel so homey and relaxed. The pictures turned out stunning — tender, natural, and full of love. Kim has a real gift for capturing genuine moments and emotions. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and will cherish these memories forever”. - Kat
