Being a first time mum and dad, we didn’t really know what to expect with birth photography, but while the whole experience is memorable it’s also completely forgetful and foggy.

Ash captured some beautiful and genuine moments with me and my partner and I’m so so grateful that she was there to do that!

Ash had a soft presence, her having kids herself she picked her moments on when she would offer some support, but mostly I had no idea she was there. Before actual labour she sat down with us and went through her services and the camera set up thoroughly and I felt confident and comfortable that I wouldn’t even know I’m being photographed.

For first time Dads from a first time Dad: there was moment there when I had no idea what to do and Ash would quietly suggest certain thing to help support Cherry in those moments (which was extremely appreciated), but she also gave us our space to be in the moment together and even for me there was times I didn’t even know she was taking photos.

I too look at the photos taken when Cherry was in labour and cherish and remember those feelings and I’m extremely grateful for those photos being taken.

12/10 would recommend

Ashleigh followed us along for the journey of our second child’s introduction to the world. Capturing maternity, birth photos and new born images that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Ashleigh was the most positive and supportive fly on the wall, offering words of encouragement exactly when needed but otherwise didn’t notice her capturing all the perfect moments.

Such a professional, thoughtful and affordable service offered and we feel as if she is now apart of our family. All of the stars to Ashleigh Lord Photography

Having Ash capture our first family photos with our little one was such a positive experience! Ash was nothing but patient with us camera shy parents and our wild child who couldn’t sit still to save her life.

Ash did such a good job working around us and capturing those special moments without feeling like we had to pose or sit awkwardly, she just followed along and adapted when our one year old decided the muddy water was where she was going to spend most of her time.

Couldn’t recommend Ash more, she was so patient and so genuinely happy to capture those moments for our family! 🤍

We were in need of updated family pictures so when I reached out about getting some photos taken, Ashleigh was eager to set a time and a place.

Ash made my family feel comfortable and relaxed. Even held bub so we could get some pics of just my partner and I.

She's super friendly and easy to work with, gave us pointers on how to pose as we had no clue. Pics turned out amazing, I'd highly recommend Ashleigh Lord Photography!
