Clients' Stories

  • We couldn't be happier

    We recently had a newborn photoshoot with White Shadows Photography and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, Justine made us feel completely comfortable. Our little boy was a little fussy at times but she had him back to sleep in minutes, handling everything with so much care and patience.

    The final photos are stunning - each one captured such beautiful moments that we’ll treasure forever. Every detail, from the lighting to the props to the soft edits, was perfect.

    We’re so grateful to have these beautiful memories of our son’s earliest days. If you’re looking for someone who is both professional and passionate about what they do, we can’t recommend Justine and White Shadows Photography enough. Thank you again and we will definitely be coming back for future milestones!

  • Patient, calm and attentive

    We recently had a newborn shoot and sibling shoot, Justine was absolutely amazing in both, she is patient, calm, attentive and has a fantastic eye for detail and creativity.
    Our photos have come out beautifully, the only difficult part is picking our favourite!
    Would highly recommend.

  • We could not recommend more highly!

    We met Justine two and a half years ago for our newborn photoshoot for our son. She was so wonderful then that we followed her all the way to Folkstone for our newborn shoot for our daughter a few weeks ago. She is a wonderful photographer who gets the best out of the baby, parents and siblings. We are so pleased with our photo shoot - could not recommend more highly. I love the photos so much I'm thinking about having a third baby just to get the photos - just kidding! But she is amazing. Thanks Justine

  • The photos turned out absolutely beautiful

    We had such a wonderful experience with
    White Shadows Photography! She is so warm and friendly, which made the whole session feel relaxed and enjoyable. She worked her magic to get our baby to smile, capturing the sweetest moments. Our baby Leo completely enjoyed the photoshoot. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—we couldn’t be happier with the results! We’ll definitely be coming back for more in the future

  • Justine brought my vision to life

    I cannot recommend Justine highly enough!
    She was fantastic with our new born baby, we felt completely at ease and enjoyed every moment of the shoot. She was so welcoming and friendly. She listened to my wishes and brought my vision to life!
    We can’t wait to book in for our cake smash shoot in a years time!

  • I was able to feed the babies whenever they needed it

    Justine did a newborn shoot of my twins and a few family photos too at her new studio in Hawkinge. It was really relaxed and I was able to feed the babies whenever they needed it. She was also wonderful with my toddler and got him to feel really excited about the shoot. It was great experience and the photos are excellent and we will treasure them forever. I would highly recommend Justine to anyone.

    “They’ve already changed so much” “Their milk spots are fading” “They’ve started to loose their hair” Does this sound like you? Well rest assured that none of it matters. All that matters is that you booked your newborn session so that we could capture all the details here and there because they will never stop changing. Your baby will change and grow everyday so that’s why during our session I will capture everything so you never forget how tiny they once were on this day 🤍 Newborn Photographer Kent | Folkestone Newborn Photographer | Newborn Photographer Dover | Newborn Timeless Photography #folkestonenewbornphotographer #newbornphotography #whiteshadowsphotography

    Monthly reminder to print your photos 🤍 And I know a lot of you have already because I’ve had a few requests to order some extra/bigger prints on time for Christmas! Complimentary 7x5 prints are included in both the silver and gold packages so many of you know the quality of those prints is incredible really! So next year, I will be offering the option to order some bigger prints but as an add-on! Meanwhile, I know there’s going to be a lot of very happy grandparents this Christmas opening the cutest wall wart 🥰 Baby Photographer Kent Dover Baby Photographer Baby Photographer Kent #printyourphotos #kentbabyphotographer #whiteshadowsphotography

    A love like no other 🤍 The mummy and baby photos always get me and you know why? Because I wish I had photos like this to treasure with my own children 🥹 one of my biggest regret is not to have booked someone else to capture my family when my 2 were born 🤍 So yes, don’t be like me, and book a photoshoot while they’re so little, you will NOT regret it 🥰 Now taking Bookings up to May 2026 so let’s get those due dates pencilled in 😍 Newborn Photographer Folkestone Kent Newborn Photographer Newborn Photoshoot Kent #duein2026 #newbornphotoshootkent #whiteshadowsphotography
