McAuley Studios Photography

What an amazing an gorgeous studio! Claire is such a warm and inviting photographer, she get the best out of whoever she is photographing. Having done two of her fairy photoshoots now I would highly recommend. Her fairy shoots are a lovely way to get photos of your child enjoying the magic and having fun. It's so genuine and real and the photos really show that.

We went into McAuley Studios for the Fairy photo shoot with our 2 daughters who are 8 and 4. As soon as we walked in Claire was very welcoming and lovely with the girls. Her enthusiasm and warmth when choosing the right fairy outfits and wings(!) with the girls meant they were soon at ease and couldn't wait to start with the shoot. Our younger daughter is very shy and Claire, recognising this straight away, just let her be for a bit while she started taking pictures of our older daughter. Soon the younger one was keen to join in the beautiful fairy scenery with plenty of imaginative props to inspire their imagination. Claire's approach led to a fun and relaxing environment throughout the shoot.It's clear to see how much Claire loves what she does and she really wants to get it right for the customer.Today we went back to the studio to have a look at the photographs. Claire had prepared a lovely slideshow with all the photos she had taken. It was truly magical to watch this and very emotional.When we came to decide which photos to go for Claire never put any pressure on us to buy more and she made it clear from the start that she caters for any budget. All the products are of very high standard and look amazing.I can truly recommended McAuley Studios and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. She was really lovely and understanding as I had my young children with me for my daughter's photoshoot trying keep them distracted. Beautiful setting made for the fairy photo!

What an amazing experience for my girls! They loved the Fairy photo shoot (probably just about as much as I did!). Claire dressed them beautifully and made them feel like real fairies. The finished photos were incredible. Loved every minute! Thank you Claire!

My daughter had the fairy photo shoot done it was amazing from the first phone call to collecting the frame. The setting and outfits were fabulous! It’s a must if you have a daughter!!! Claire is just so lovely everything about her she makes you feel extremely welcome and her photos are just perfect!!! I would highly recommend a visit! We will definitely be having more photographs done with her. Xx

Claire was excellent at controlling our 2 year old terribly fussy toddler! She made us feel at ease and her energy was brilliant. We are so pleased with the photos and will definitely be returning for our family pics next year!!

Absolutely amazing! Took my girls (3 + 1)Only three year old was booked but she let my 1 year old dress up in the fairy outfits too and we got some absolute stunning photos! Kids had an amazing time and such brilliant service! Highly recommended!

Claire is a wonderful photographer and captured some amazing moments between my 2 and 4 year old on the 'Away with the Fairies' shoot, which was no mean feat (as they are live wires). The kids really enjoyed the experience and the quality of photos is excellent

My family gifted us vouchers for McAuley Studios so that we could get some family photos with our baby girl and we're so glad they chose McAuleys! Claire was amazing and patient with our baby, making her smile away for the photos and making us feel relaxed in front of the camera; it was a genuinely enjoyable experience. The photos have turned out beautifully and we will definitely treasure them forever! Thanks Claire!
