Shaista Lakha Photography

Doing my son’s cake smash photo session with Shaista was an amazing experience. She was so welcoming and lovely - she made us feel right at home! My son loved her. Additionally she brought my vision to life perfectly and we are so happy with the photos we got! She captured so many beautiful photos of our son it was really hard to decide which to pick! She was so supportive and lovely throughout the whole experience and after - couldn’t have asked for more! Would highly recommend her!!!!

I’ve booked Shaista right from my first pregnancy maternity photos, to my first child’s newborn shoot to 1year old cake smash photos! When we got pregnant with my second, I just knew who to go to for the newborn photos. I feel like I’ve taken Shaista as my own personal family photographer. She is amazing and so comfortable to be around with. She captures all the moments which I’ve wanted as a memory, any ideas or photos I’ve seen; she moulds us beautifully. Both my babies have now a life time memories of their photos! I have so much more to capture and I’ll continue to come back to Shaista! ♥️

We used Shaista for our newborn photoshoot. She is gentle, kind and very accomodating. We are incredibly pleased with the outcome of the photos, they were exactly the sort of thing we wanted. Thank you Shaista for our beautiful photos which we will treasure for a lifetime.

Our experience with Shaista was fantastic, as she was very professional and friendly. Her home studio is also very welcoming and calming, so really sets the tone for the picture taking! We were welcomed and explained throughout the process of taking pictures for our son's cake smash, and Shaista tried very hard to be hands on with our son to ensure the best moments were captured on camera. The pictures were brilliant and the quality was very good indeed. I would highly recommend Shaista as she is so professional and remains in touch with you throughout to ensure you are happy and satisfied. She is so great with children, and really has an eye to capture children's best moments

I cannot recommend Shaista enough and would never dream of going anywhere else!!She is absolutely fantastic in every way. She knows how to do work with your child to get the best out of them and certainly worked her magic with my 3 week old. We have some very special moments captured which is all thanks to her exceptional skills.Shaista is very professional and her quality of work will not disappoint!Such a lovely friendly lady who really works with you to ensure you get from the shoot what you want. Nothing is too much which is very reassuring when you want the best images of your little one.I have already recommended her services to three friends who have recently given birth and will definitely return again in the future for other shoots as I loved everything about Shaista from start to finish.Exceptional work and worth every penny

We had a newborn photoshoot with Shaista last year and could not have been happier with the experience. Shaista was warm and welcoming and allowed us to sit back and relax for a few hours while she worked her magic! She was fantastic with my little one and settled him so well, feeding and changing him too. Her studio is gorgeous with lots of props and layouts to choose from and Shaista took the time to ask what we would like- we felt really relaxed and listened to throughout. She took a variety of shots with different themes and props/outfits aswell as family shots. All the photos she captured are absolutely stunning and are truly memories we will cherish forever, the hardest part was choosing the final images! We really can’t recommend Shaista enough!

We booked our son’s 6 months + photo shoot with Shaista. She (and Maria who assisted her) made us feel comfortable and our session went more smoothly than anticipated. She was very accommodating with our additional requests and we liked the photos that were taken. Very professional, proficient and thoughtful - we highly recommend Shaista!

We had a great experience with Shaista, she was very professional whilst capturing some amazing shots of our beautiful baby boy, you are so talented so thank you!We knew straight away as soon as we came across her Instagram profile that we wanted use her for our baby pictures, now that we have seen these images we are so glad we picked you! You made us feel at ease as soon as we walked through the door and we had such great comments from our friends and family. Thank you once again xx

I can not recommend Shaista enough - she is kind and caring and really makes you feel at ease throughout the photo shoot!She photographed my daughter when she was only 1 week old and managed to stay calm and collected even when my daughter had a nappy explosion all over her beautiful rug! Shaista was the epitome of professionalism throughout!Furthermore, the results of her work speak for themselves. Her photographs are scattered throughout our home and we always receive compliments on how beautiful the images are. She really knows how to capture the moment!I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her at all!
