Justine was a fantastic photographer for our newborn photoshoot! The whole process of booking the shoot was simple and Justine was so friendly. On the day of the shoot she made us feel so relaxed really quickly and we really enjoyed the experience, she was so good with our little one and had such a caring nature and creative eye! We have now received our photos and they are so beautiful- we will definitely contact Justine again for future photos!

I honestly cannot recommend Justine enough. From our very first messages she was so kind, reassuring and accommodating, which made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free.
Justine was incredibly flexible around dates and appointments and never once made us feel rushed or like an inconvenience. On the day of the shoot she was so patient, gentle and calm with our daughter, and it was clear straight away how experienced and caring she is. We felt completely at ease throughout.
The photos themselves are absolutely beautiful! We went for the all white style of photos, they are soft, timeless and captured our little girl perfectly. We were completely blown away by every photo. Justine showed us such kindness and generosity, and we were truly honoured that she loved the images enough to ask to use them on her website.
Not only is Justine incredibly talented, she's also genuinely lovely, and that really shines through in both her work and the experience she creates. We will treasure these photos forever and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone considering a newborn photoshoot. I have also already said I want to do this every year, the perfect photographer. 🤍

I highly recommend Whiteshadows photography. We have had two sittings, Nov 2024 and Nov 2025. Justine made myself and the children feel welcome, comfortable and at ease. She remained happy, calm and patient whilst trying to manage three excited children who at times were a challenge! The result, beautiful, professional photographs which were available within days of the sitting. 10/10 ! Thank you Justine.

An amazing experience from start to finish! Justine is a truly talented photographer. It was a pleasure to meet her and watch her work. She has such a calming, gentle touch, which kept our newborn relaxed throughout the entire photo shoot. We are over the moon with our photos and will definitely be booking another session in the future. It was such a special day—thank you for capturing these precious moments for us.

I messaged justine with hopes she had a last minute space for myself and my family for a newborn shoot to which she did. Justine managed to book us in and I had only messaged a few weeks before, on arrival Justine was so welcoming and easy going, we all felt very comfortable and it was such a smooth and pleasant photoshoot. My 3 older children were able to sit comfortably in another room and wait for our newborn to have his photos done, which again, everything was so smooth and I felt comfortable whilst he had them done. The outcome of the photos were incredible and we’re all so happy with them. We will definitely be returning for our baby’s 1st birthday cake smash! I couldn’t recommend Justine enough, she is amazing at what she does and is so kind and easy going.

Absolutely fabulous! Was gifted some money for a photoshoot for my little Bubba when he was born so had a look around for photographers in the area and settled on white shadows photography. I'm so glad I chose white shadows photography. Justine was so flexible with timings and super friendly and approachable! The photos are stunning, I couldn't pick between them all so ended up opting for the gold package. 100% recommend!

Justine is amazing at what she does, we felt so confident during our newborn photoshoot for Lily, even when she was struggling with colic/wind and needed feeding part way through. I don't usually feel comfortable with people holding her until she is more content but you could tell instantly that Justine had so much experience with babies and Lily was very relaxed throughout! It was very much baby-led which put my mind at ease! The pictures have come out beautifully and capture her personality so well! Thank you so much.
Photographing toddlers is always an adventure and that’s exactly what makes it so special ✨
At this age, little personalities shine in the most genuine way. There’s no posing perfection, just real laughter, curious exploration, and those wonderful unpredictable moments that turn into the most meaningful memories. One minute they’re shy, the next they’re running, giggling, or showing me their favourite toy 🥹
My goal during toddler sessions is simple: create a relaxed, playful space where children can just be themselves. When they feel comfortable and free to explore, we capture authentic expressions that you will treasure.
Every session is different, every child is unique, and honestly… that’s what makes photographing toddlers so much fun 🤩

When you book me, you’re not just paying for someone to press a button, you’re investing in my experience, creative vision, and the final artwork I craft for you.
I photograph using specific settings and lighting choices that are intentionally designed to work with my editing presets and signature style. The final edited image is the finished product, the way your gallery is meant to be seen.
Raw files are unfinished, unedited images, a bit like ingredients before the recipe is complete. Your phone captures raw moments, but professional photography is about transforming those moments into timeless images.
If a more unedited or simple approach is what you’re looking for, that’s completely okay that’s why every photographer works differently, and finding the right fit matters 🤍

Well, because it’s cute 😂 let’s be honest, you don’t really need an excuse but it’s such a great way to mark that first big milestone!
The Silver and Gold packages both include pre cake photos, the cake smash and the bath & splash!
If you don’t want to whole lot, why not go for the Bronze package which only covers the Cake part!
Please note that the cake isn’t included but everything else is. If you need recommendations for a cake maker, let me know and I’ll point you toward the right direction ☺️

While March is fully booked, I have some limited availability left in April and I have also started taking bookings for May - July 2026 🤍
Sadly I cannot accommodate weekends at the moment as they are fully booked until June and I’m currently keeping some free weekends in July to try and schedule outdoor family mini sessions (more to be announced soon).
Here is a rough guide on when to book your session:
🌿 Newborn: pre book after your 20 weeks scan to guarantee a space in my diary when baby is here 🌿 Sitter: when your baby is around 4 months old for a session at 6-9 months old 🌿 Milestone/Cake smash: when your baby is around 7-8 months old
For family and other sessions, if you can do a weekday, I will always try my best to squeeze you in here and there ☺️
Pricing can be found in the link in my bio but my inbox is always open if you have any questions 💌

It’s been a little while, so here’s a gentle reminder not to let those beautiful memories live only on your phone.
One of the greatest advantages of a timeless photoshoot is its versatility, your images will complement any space in your home. Their soft, neutral tones ensure they blend effortlessly with your décor, never feeling crowded or out of place.
Don’t let your beautiful images stay hidden on your devices, they deserve to be seen and enjoyed every day 🤍

Surely those are some of the cutest photos you’ve seen while scrolling today. Big blue eyes and blushed cheeks from teething as well as her expressions, curious, a bit unsure and cheeky all at once, I love them 🤍
Also, can we talk about her outfit (kind of wish they did in adult size) 🥹
You’re always welcome, of course, to bring your own outfits for your baby’s photoshoot but if you’re out of inspiration or worried of what might/might not go so well, don’t worry I’ve got you covered with my little clients’ wardrobe, just ask ☺️
Every month there’s disappointment when I cannot accommodate. It is highly recommended to book after your 20 weeks scan. You can do it even as early as your 12 weeks but I always find that 20 weeks is a bigger milestone and you should have all the re assurance that everything is ok 🤍
I only take a limited amount of pre booked due dates each month so that I can always be flexible offering a range of dates once baby is born and this way YOU get to choose the date that works best for YOUR family.
As a result, some months will see some last minute availability where some others won’t 🥲
Pre booking will only cost you £45 but it’ll give you peace of mind and not having to add to your to-do list once baby is here 🤍

Some people will call it the month of love but all I see is that it’s one step closer to Spring 🤭
I only have one spot left in February toward the end of the month for a Newborn, Sitter or Milestone session so get in touch if you’re interested and would like to discuss options 💌
