As a mum of three (including twins!), I know how precious – and fleeting – those first weeks are. My natural style focuses on gentle, unposed moments, capturing the tiny details and tender connections you’ll want to remember forever.
For the sleepiest, snuggliest photos, I recommend booking your newborn session within the first 2–3 weeks – but beautiful memories can be captured at any stage.
A beautifully considered gift - celebrating life’s most meaningful moments, from weddings and newborn arrivals to birthdays, maternity sessions, and seasonal occasions. Or invest in their personal brand with a branding photography session.

"We recently had a photo session with Becky Bates, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. She captured my daughter in such a natural, beautiful way — nothing felt forced or overly posed, and the images truly reflect her personality. The photos are absolutely stunning and feel so authentic.
Becky is warm, friendly, and instantly puts you at ease, while remaining completely professional throughout. Her talent and eye for detail are clear in every shot, and she is truly excellent at her craft. We’ll treasure these photos forever and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her."
