I have had multiple shoots for my little boy and Rachel has been excellent for each one. I love her style of photography and how she manages to catch the lovely special looks. I have recommended Rachel to all my friends and will look forward to more shoots in the future.
Amazing photographer with great style and an eye for a great shot.
Visited twice now and over the moon with all photographs we have received. Lovely lady, welcoming atmosphere and amazing quality photographs. We wouldn’t use anyone else now.
Thank you so much for our amazing photos; they are perfect for our two little girls. Highly recommend and can not wait to see you again in the future. Very professional and photos are outstanding.
What an amazing experience from start to finish! 😃 we have just received our photos back from our little boys first birthday cake smash and they are absolutely amazing! Rachel managed to capture every part of Theodore’s personality - cheeky, happy and cute! The entire process - from booking to receiving our final photos - has been seamless. Rachel had a fantastic selection of backdrops to choose from and had our photos back to us within a matter of days. 5 ⭐️ customer service! We felt so welcome at the cake smash, and Rachel was fantastic with Theodore, letting him explore and get comfortable before making him laugh and giggle non stop! Thank you so much - would 100% recommend The Whitley Captures to anyone looking for beautiful family photos.
Rachel deserves a medal for managing to get the photos she did of our family for Christmas - she made everyone feel so comfortable and then the props she had helped the boys have some fun really naturally. My family all want copies and it was such amazing value. Thank you and we will definitely be back to capture more memories in the future.
