From the bridal prep at The Marine Hotel to the stunning reception at East Key Wedding Venue, this wedding day had everything 🤍

Happy tears, endless laughter, the most lovely couple, and the best bridal party who couldn't have been more helpful and who kept the dance floor buzzing all night. The sun was beaming and we were treated to the most incredible sunset to finish it all off. 🌅

Days like this are exactly why I love what I do. Capturing the quiet excitement of the morning to the golden-hour magic in the evening and all the fun in between.

A huge thank you to the amazing team for such a beautiful setting. It’s a pleasure to photograph weddings in such a stunning location and the Team are so friendly & welcoming.

This Father's Day give him something he didn't even realise he needed, but will treasure forever. 🤎

Not to sound dramatic but one day, the little hands reaching for his won’t be so little anymore 🥹. The shoulder rides, bedtime cuddles, silly games, belly laughs and “Daddy, watch this!” moments will quietly become memories.

A family photography session captures all the things you never want to forget. The way your children look at him.
The way he makes them laugh. The chaos, the cuddles, the love, the connection.

And mums/partners… this gift is a little bit for you too 🤫.
Because while he is getting a thoughtful Father’s Day gift, YOU also will be getting beautiful updated family photographs & precious memories captured forever that include you, not stuck behind the camera for once but part of the story 🤎.

Everybody wins!

These sessions are about more than smiling at the camera. They’re about freezing this chapter before it changes. Giving your children memories they’ll grow up seeing on the walls, in albums, and one day, holding onto themselves.

"Rachel. These are amazing photographs. Thank you so much. After putting about 65 in favourites, I can confirm we will buy the whole gallery 😂 You’ve made it impossible not to — you’re incredibly talented. Thank you for capturing our little slice of chaos.”

Feedback like this means so much to me.
This is why I love what I do. Knowing these photographs will be treasured by families forever is such a privilege 🤎

So grateful for every family that trusts me to capture these beautiful, love-filled moments.

Booking is open now for summer family photo sessions. I'd love to help capture a part of your family story. DM to book.

Family and Newborn photographer for families in Kent.

HOW TO PREPARE YOUR CHILDREN FOR A FAMILY PHOTO SESSION

Talk about me before the session.
Instead of “we have photos today,” try:
“We’re going to hang out with Rachel for an hour and have some fun!”
Hearing my name beforehand helps little ones feel more comfortable when we meet. They will feel like they already know me a little.

Make it sound FUN, not like a chore.
The less it feels like something they have to do, the more relaxed and happy they’ll be.

Comfort over fashion
If they hate itchy jumpers, stiff shoes, or scratchy dresses… everyone will know about it.
Choose outfits they feel comfortable and confident in.

Timing is everything
If possible:
• naps before the session = happier little humans
• dinner before evening shoots = fewer hangry negotiations

Avoid sweets beforehand
Sugar highs + photoshoots are a chaotic combination 😅
Save treats for afterwards as a little reward instead.

Please don’t stress if they don’t “behave”
I’m not expecting perfectly posed children who sit still and smile on command.
I’m there to capture your family as you are—the giggles, cuddles, chaos, and natural moments in between.

The best photos happen when everyone relaxes
Play with them. Cuddle them. Laugh with them and enjoy some precious uninterrupted time as a family.
