Fantastic photographer, highly recommended. We had a newborn shoot; Rachel was fantastic and very patient with my little boy and even got my daughter involved in the pictures who is a big Harry Potter fan and tailored the pictures to include this. Photos turned out amazing and were fairly priced, would definitely come here again.
Couldn't recommend The Whitley Captures more- friendly and really accommodating but above all, a fantastic photographer at an excellent price.
We took our little girl for a newborn shoot and Rachel was brilliant! So patient and lovely with our baby. The shoot was tailored well to what we wanted, some lovely poses, and we didn't feel hurried - the little one was happy throughout.
I’m in love with all the pictures! Very professional couldn’t recommend enough!
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.
Amazing photographer with great style and an eye for a great shot.
