" Back in 2018, I found 1st for Memories through an internet search when I was looking for a newborn shoot for my daughter.

I immediately fell in love with Rachel’s style of newborn photography. The intricacy and intimacy of the pictures were so beautiful and genuinely took my breath away.

Rachel makes my whole family feel so comfortable and at ease. The newborn shoots were so relaxed and calm - almost therapeutic for a new mummy! The Christmas shoots have always been fun and festive with the most thoughtful personal goody bags created too. The mummy and me shoot was serene and calm at times but also upbeat and fun at times too. Amelia loved dancing in front of the industrial fan, with her hair blowing the breeze. Rachel is so patient.

Every photoshoot we have had with Rachel has surpassed expectations beyond compare. She is one in a million, the best at what she does and the most wonderful lady to spend time with too.

Every photograph package we have had from Rachel has been exceptional. I have fallen in love with every photograph of my daughter and my family that she has captured.

Viewing my images from Rachel leaves me in tears every single time, without fail. Motherly love is such a powerful force of nature and those feelings of pride and love and adoration are amplified profoundly by Rachel’s photographs. They capture something so significant and sincere. I am so grateful we found Rachel.

Rachel’s photographs capture moments and memories that last forever. She has regularly photographed Amelia from her newborn shoot up until the age of three (so far) and these images mean absolutely everything to me. Memories of your child last forever in your heart and mind but these photographs provide such a physical snapshot of your child’s growth, stages and development. Rachel’s photographs are beautiful. "
