Headshot and Portraits
These photoshoots are aimed at companies and individuals looking to update their headshots and/or put together artwork for their businesses or themselves.
Maternity Portraits
A photoshoot during pregnancy can feel like the last thing on your mind. However, it is a beautiful, empowering experience. I photograph your journey and with the styling, gowns and props, will make you feel beautiful and amazing.
Newborn Portraits
I am very passionate about Newborn Photography. I pose newborn babies for their photoshoots in a natural and safe way and take safety very seriously throughout my sessions. Please be aware that some of the images you will see on my website will be composite images. This means that I have taken a few separate newborn photographs with baby fully supported and photoshopped the supporting hands out.
Baby Milestones Portraits
This is a lovely way to document your baby's first year, see example photographs of 3-5 Months, 6-10 Months and First Birthday. First Birthday Photoshoots can be anything from Cake Smash and Splash and First Birthday Party Coverage to Studio and Outdoor Photoshoots.

"Clare is amazing with babies and toddlers, how she captures all the fleeting smiles and expressions I don’t know but all the photos are beautiful.
"Professional and relaxed, she really put the whole family at ease and none of the shoots felt rushed at all. She trooped through an outdoor shoot in the pouring rain and got some amazing pictures and equally did great work in the studio. Really pleased we got a milestone package. Will be back again when our girls bigger."
