Finding beauty everywhere
Newborn, Family & Maternity Photography in Cornwall

A personalised photography experience

Welcome to my world of creative newborn, family & maternity photography in Cornwall.

I offer a fully guided photography service for families in Cornwall, ensuring they end up with high quality images and artwork that capture their moments and memories in a lasting and meaningful way.

No moment is too small, no connection too unimportant, no story too ordinary. Your memories matter, and I am here to give you my presence and to find the beauty in your everyday.

Warm and friendly photographer with 12+ years experience, based in Grampound near Truro (small home studio), and offering photoshoots on-location around Cornwall.

What’s a full photography service?

A full photography service guides you through each step of the process. Planning the details with thought and care, getting to know your family so that I can approach your session with understanding, making sure you feel well informed and prepared, so you can relax and enjoy the experience.

Instead of leaving you with an unfinished product (aka digital files), I help you choose your images for print, so you end up with beautiful finished artworks to hang or hold.

Nothing is left undone.

Beginning with the end in mind

Before your session, you’ll see the product options available. I offer a range of prints, frames, and albums, each selected for their lasting quality and style. Knowing from the start what you want simplifies the whole process.

You have the option to choose something different once you’ve seen the images, but it’s immensely helpful to have an intention for our session.

Full product and pricing info is provided before booking, and I’m on hand to support each decision so you end up with something you truly love.

“The most gorgeous photos we could have wished for, documenting our journey from pregnancy to newborn. We’d definitely recommend Michelle!”

- Claire Dummett

Photo sessions for every chapter

Every stage of family life looks different, but the way I photograph it doesn’t change. I’m here to care deeply, to see you and to help you feel the beauty in the moments you’re living, before they’re gone.

Take a look or get in touch if it’s something different you’re looking for.

“Michelle was friendly, clear and efficient throughout the whole process, from initial contact to getting our final gallery. We love the photos that she took and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. Her laid back, warm and non-pushy way of working was perfect.”

- Juliet Stubbington

Frequently asked questions

︾

Q: Do you photograph extended families?

A: Yes I do - I love multi generational photoshoots. There is a supplementary charge for these so get in touch to find out more.

Q: What if my children don’t behave during our family photo shoot?

A: My planning process and approach is designed to ensure that kids feel good and are more likely to cooperate. The idea is that everyone has a genuinely pleasant experience so nothing is forced, nobody has to do anything they don’t want to. This is covered in detail in prep guides and I’m always on hand to chat through concerns. But honestly, behaviour is just emotions being expressed, and I’m not wanting anyone to behave a certain way. I just want everyone to feel good.

Q: Where is your studio located and do you travel?

A: My home photography studio space is located in Grampound (between Truro & St Austell). I also travel throughout Cornwall for outdoor and at-home sessions. Travel charges are added for locations further than 10 miles.
