What can I say…the images are stunning. Rachel was amazing with the kids, giving them gentle direction to be able to get the best shots. I’m blown away by the quality of the pictures and I can’t wait to come back and document more growing up of the kids.
So so pleased with the beautiful pics Rachel has captured for us! We had a non-compliant 2 year old on the day and we still came away with beautiful pics. Rachel put us at ease and I’d definitely recommend her if you’re thinking of booking a photo session.
We’ve had our photos taken for almost 2.5 years now with The Whitley Captures and they are always so beautiful. Rachel is amazing with our little girl and always has great ways of making her feel at ease, smile and laugh in the photos ❤️. 5 stars Rachel, you’re amazing!
Rachel was fabulous with our 2 children. Very personable, and professional and took her time, particularly when our 3 yr old didn’t play ball initially. Her patience helped our daughter come out of her shell and participate in the shoot. Thank you so much Rachel, we highly recommend your photo shoots and absolutely love the pictures of our family.
I was a bit nervous about trying to get my two girls to sit/stand/smile but Rachel was so patient and made the shoot fun which the girls loved. The photos have come out better than I could have imagined and couldn’t recommend Rachel enough. Love love love them.
Had a cake smash and bath photo shoot for our little boy’s first birthday and the pictures are brilliant. Rachel makes you feel really welcome and the studio is excellent for children. Nursery songs playing and really interactive with the child to keep them entertained and get those photos full of smiles. Couldn’t recommend enough will definitely be returning in the future.
