Sessions created for you and your story.
I’m the photographer who puts you at ease, who your kids adore, and who allows you to be so present in the moment with your loved ones that you actually forget you’re being photographed.
Yes to capturing your actual real life and actual real emotion. Yes to quietly hyping you up (you’re doing amazing, mama!). Yes to movement, to laughter, and to letting your kids be who they are.
No stiff, uncomfortable poses held for minutes at a time. No asking your kids to smile at the camera. No making you feel like you ‘should be’ another way.
You’re safe to be yourselves with me.
“Millie is a light! We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming her into our home to photograph our very special, very longed for newborn after an incredibly difficult birth. During what I remember to be a vulnerable time, she brought joy, grace & kindness to a photoshoot that I wasn’t even sure I had the mental capacity to be apart of.
She was so patient, checking in with me throughout, offering plenty of feeding breaks & adapting to the unpredictable temperament of our new little human. She took the stress out of “getting the perfect shot” & instead, captured the real, natural details of our baby that I’ll cherish forever.
She allowed us to simply be present so it felt like she was documenting real moments as opposed to staged poses. The way his little fingers interlocked, his adorable curled toes, the sweet newborn scrunch - all the things I know I’ll miss in the future, but now have photos of, to look back on. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
I’m here for the ones who want a personal, intimate and cared-for experience. I’m here for the introverts who want a comfort and quiet so they finally have photos that feel like them. I’m here for the ones who don’t want to pretend, who don’t want to hide their emotion, and who want to celebrate the inner strength they’ve fought for.
You’re in safe hands, because I actually get it. I’ll create a happy little bubble for you, and capture your genuine moments for you to remember for years to come.
Your life is as unique and beautiful as you, so your session will be bespoke to you too, completely taken care of by me.
I see love and beauty everywhere and in everyone, and through my lens, you’ll see your beauty too. Life is so precious, and the people you share it with are the most precious pieces of all.
If you’re looking to spend quality time with your loved ones in a happy little bubble of safety and ease, and capture photos at the same time, I’m your girl.
Your privacy is down to you, not me.
Whether you want to stay unidentifiable yourself, or you’re protecting your beautiful kids, I’ve got you.
I offer a Privacy Request which applies to how I use the images from your session online or in my printed portfolio. I don’t do anything differently during your photoshoot, and your gallery is completely unaffected.
If you choose to use the Privacy Request I’ll:
- only use images taken from the rear or side profiles, where the facial features aren’t clearly visible
and/or
- use cropping, blurring etc
and/or
- avoid using any photo that could lead to identification
I don’t use AI tools anywhere in my editing process. Your images are all edited by me, personally, by hand. Yes, it makes my process a little slower, but AI won’t have your face or body from me.
“Millie is not just the photographer to go to, but most importantly the person to go to.”
“Millie reassured us, made us feel relaxed and it came naturally… we felt in a little bubble and forgot that Millie was even there! (In the nicest way possible!)”
“We can’t thank Millie enough. From the bottom of our hearts, from start to finish the process was outstanding.”
You feel awkward or camera shy, but long for real, emotional and honest photos of you and the ones you’re completely in love with.
You don’t want a performance, you just want someone to quietly come into your world, be present, be calm, and capture the beautiful life you’ve built and feel so grateful for.
You’re afraid of feeling uncomfortable and ending up with photos that don’t feel like you, so you’ve always been the one behind the camera… but you long to be seen and captured as you really are.
You want someone who’s quiet nature matches yours, and who you can trust completely right from the first interaction.
You’re looking for a photographer who’s not afraid of loss or grief, who can hold space for all of your emotions, and who’s whole focus is you and your loved ones.
You want to look at the gallery and cry with the overwhelming love and joy in your precious life, and also think “I can’t believe that’s actually me.”
Your beautiful family, in your beautiful place.
Whether your kiddo is curled into your neck with their eyes peering out, or running wild to find the best rock, flower or bug, your family is perfect exactly as it is.
Your whole world in a frame, to remember how you all were, on this day, for the rest of time.
The feel of your session is entirely down to you and your family…
Intimate Sunday mornings at home, sleepy little feet pattering into the kitchen to help make pancakes, wandering through the doorways notched with their heights as they grew…
Adventurous sandy toes, peering into rock pools, their contagious laughter, and building castles that feel like palaces…
Calm, raw, wild or sweet, family sessions are child-led, so however they are is good with me.
Delicate Newborn days, your way.
Newborn sessions at home have such beauty, intimacy, vulnerability and peace.
These aren’t unnatural posed studio shots, but memories of how you hold your baby. How they rest naturally against you, knowing their safe space. How they fit in the hands of your partner, and how your partner’s hands support you. All in the cosy feel of your home where your baby’s firsts are yet to come, where they’ve begun their life.
These are the days that fly by, the ones when you’re learning the rhythms of your new little baby, and when you’re recovering, both mentally and physically.
Mama, I promise to be patient and give you all the breaks and space you both need.
And don’t worry about the chores you haven’t got around to yet, I won’t be photographing your home, I’ll be capturing your movements and emotion inside of it.
The miracle of womanhood, the strength of your beautiful body.
Soak in all your emotions and celebrate the wonder of you and your body. Whether your session is solo or with your partner, this is for you to see yourself in a different light and remember how it was to be the first home for your baby.
Whether you choose your session to be in the comfort and light of your home (where it’ll soon change to contain all the brightly coloured plastic toys you swore you’d never get) or outdoors in soft golden light, your session is about you.
Maternity sessions are usually held around 28-36 weeks, when you’re glowing, your bump is bump-ing, and you’re comfortable moving, stretching and breathing into the experience.
However you are, however your pregnancy is for you, you and your body deserve to be worshipped, celebrated and cherished.
Your love, your connection, the centre of your universe.
You and your person are unique for a reason. Whether your relationship centres around your humour, your conversation, or your mutual experiences, your two halves make your thing your whole.
Every relationship is different, so we lean into that. We can recreate a favourite date, capture how you fit together in your home, or whatever feels true to you.
PDA not required. Sessions aren’t performative, and not everyone feels comfortable sharing their touch around others. Intimacy lives in so many other gestures, looks and moments.
Your growth, your power, your authenticity.
Girl, I’m already so proud of you.
Solo sessions are so empowering, and you are a force to be reckoned with.
Your power comes from softness, grace, and quiet healing, and I see you.
You’ve been through the worst and it didn’t break you, you survived. You found solace in yourself and that is unmistakable, unshakable and absolutely remarkable.
Celebrate you, your story, and your progress. See yourself, your energy and your true beauty, see yourself for exactly who you are.
This is from you, for you.
However life is for you, however you want to remember and celebrate it, you can be fully yourself with me.
Missed the Newborn days and suddenly you’ve got a 9-month-old? Missed your engagement shoot but want to celebrate your relationship as you’ve grown together? Want to remember a random Tuesday in June because it means everything to you? I’ve got you.
My packages are based on how immersive you want your experience. Two packages with two levels per package. Easy.
