Isla didn’t just smash her cake… she claimed it.
Chocolate, cream, giggles, and the biggest smiles — a perfect first birthday moment with mum Rhiannon and granny Sarah cheering her on.

1st Birthday Cake smash
Beckett absolutely smashed his first birthday — literally.
Full of laughs, cheeky smiles, and a wee bit of frosting for good measure.
Such a joy to photograph this happy wee lad and his proud mum, Kace.

I know it’s been a bit quiet on here lately, but I promise the camera hasn’t had a chance to gather dust. Life has been full-on in the best way.

Over the last few weeks I’ve been at a wedding fayre, a walking rugby festival, Earlston Civic Week fancy dress, two birthday cake smashes, a family photoshoot, and a lovely day out to Queensferry with my husband and my two youngest nieces on a boat trip under the Forth Bridges. I also spent a few days visiting my mum, and we’ve had my daughter’s family hen doo as well — so definitely not resting on my laurels.

Plenty of photos taken, plenty of memories made, and I’ll share some favourites soon.

I’m also planning some Back to School / Starting School studio sessions at The Smiddy, Lauder Leisure Centre during the week beginning 10th August — likely Mon, Tues and/or Wed.
£45 for a 30‑minute session, including 5 prints and 5 matching digital images.

If you’d like to book in, just drop me a message. Thanks for all your support — it means a lot.

Photographed the Fancy Dress Parade at Earlston Civic Week yesterday. Great fun with a great atmosphere.

Looking for a photographer across Scotland or the North of England? I’m based in the Scottish Borders and happy to travel — whether that’s further into Scotland or down towards Carlisle, Newcastle, Northumberland and the surrounding areas. My style is calm, natural and documentary‑focused, perfect for weddings, family sessions, small events and community days. I’m organised, easy‑going and very people‑focused, always aiming to capture genuine moments and real stories.
You can see examples of my work at chrisbatchelorimages.wordpress.com and on Facebook at facebook.com/chrisbatchelorimages. Happy to chat if you’d like to book a date or find out more.

March took me to the SOSE & Scottish EDGE Awards — a day full of ideas, pitches, nerves, excitement and well‑deserved wins.
Loved capturing the atmosphere and the people who make these events what they are.
