Rachel was recommended by a friend and so glad we contacted her! Amazing newborn and mini shoot for my daughters. The atmosphere was very calm and she is very professional. Rachel made everyone feel comfortable on the day of the shoot. She delivers in a timely manner and love love her style of photography. We were back second time for my husband’s mini shoot but i’m 100% sure we will be back for more sessions x highly recommended. thank you Rachel
Couldn't recommend The Whitley Captures more- friendly and really accommodating but above all, a fantastic photographer at an excellent price.

Amazing photographer with great style and an eye for a great shot.
What an amazing experience from start to finish! 😃 we have just received our photos back from our little boys first birthday cake smash and they are absolutely amazing! Rachel managed to capture every part of my little one's personality - cheeky, happy and cute! The entire process - from booking to receiving our final photos - has been seamless. Rachel had a fantastic selection of backdrops to choose from and had our photos back to us within a matter of days. 5 ⭐️ customer service! We felt so welcome at the cake smash, and Rachel was fantastic with Theodore, letting him explore and get comfortable before making him laugh and giggle non stop! Thank you so much - would 100% recommend The Whitley Captures to anyone looking for beautiful family photos.
Rachel is absolutely amazing and is so lovely and patient with the kids! The photos we received were fantastic and I couldn’t have been happier with them. We have rebooked with Rachel for a Christmas and a 1st birthday shoot !
