Clare Murthy Photography

We had a newborn and family photo session with Clare at her home studio. We couldn’t ask for a better experience. Clare was very patient, calm and good with kids. The photos were stylish but also captured the early days of a newborn perfectly. The album was made good quality. I found everything is transparent and clear from her website and emails. Clare communicated and delivered on time at each stage of the process so you know exactly what to expect. We hope to return for another shoot in the near future!

We knew that we would want to have photos taken of our newborn as soon as we found out that we were expecting. We spent a long time searching online for a photographer whose work is beautiful and natural, when we came across Clare’s website and we are so glad we did. We booked with Clare in May and had our photography session in September. Clare is lovely and extremely professional. We felt very well prepared for the photoshoot from all the communications with her by telephone and email beforehand. Clare made us feel at ease on the day and her home studio was warm and relaxing. She was amazing with our daughter, who was just 9 days old at the time and was so gentle and calm when placing her in the different poses. We can’t recommend Clare highly enough and we couldn’t be happier with our beautiful photographs which we will treasure forever.Thank you so much Clare for capturing such a special time in our lives.

I was extremely anxious about the photoshoot considering the sleepless night my newborn son had; however, Clare put all of my anxieties at ease. With her calm demeanor, she worked with our son and gave us and him plenty of time to settle and sleep, feed, nappy change.. you name it. The studio was nice and warm and refreshments were at hand. It was such an enjoyable experience. It was wonderful working with Clare and as a result, my husband and I have the most beautiful photographs of our son and us as a new family to cherish forever. We will most definitely book Clare for future sessions. Thank you Clare!

We absolutely love the photos Clare took of our family. She is professional and forthcoming with all sorts of useful information before the shoot. On the day we had a lot of fund. Both baby and toddler were relaxed around her which enabled Clare to get lots of great photos. Highly recommend!

We would highly recommend Clare for photos of your newborn. The photos that Clare took were amazing and we fell in love with them so we had to have them all. Clare was so patient with us and our daughter and was very relaxed on the day. Even before the shoot Clare goes through everything with you what will happen on the day and will answer any questions you have. We look forward to having another photoshoot for our daughter next year for her 1st Birthday.

Clare was amazing - we did a newborn Photoshoot for our two week old baby and it was wonderful. Clare was so professional and made us feel at ease. The photos were beautiful and everything we wanted. We ordered the digital photos, three frames, a gift portfolio and the thank you cards and were absolutely delighted with how all of them came out. We'll definitely be seeing Clare again in future.

So good we booked her twice! We were fortunate enough to have Clare photograph our son in 2020 when we emerged from lockdown and were so in love with the results we booked her again when our daughter was born 2 months ago. Clare is a pleasure to work with and is warm, welcoming and extremely professional. She sent over all the information and organised a call beforehand to make sure we had all the information we needed and check we didn't have any questions ourselves.On the day of the shoot despite our toddler not being very compliant she pulled out all the stops to make sure we got the shots and she didn't disappoint. Beautiful natural photos that are printed in high quality as beautiful keepsakes for years to come. Thank you Clare!

Clare is such a talented, kind and professional person to work with. We have had her photograph both our daughters as newborns and have also had her capture some special memories in a Lavender fields mini session. We keep going back to Clare as she works with babies and children so incredibly well. She manages to capture the most beautiful moments and we know she is always going to run every session smoothly and patiently. 100% recommend Clare and we will definitely be seeing her again sometime in the future.

My wife and me did a newborn session with Clare with our older 2yo daughter. She was amazing at putting us all at ease and making the session a pleasant experience and showed infinite patience towards our kids. The photos we got from the session were beautiful and a joy to get. Very highly recommended!

We had a newborn photo shoot with Clare and had an excellent experience. Clare was highly knowledgeable about how to photograph tiny babies and the entire experience was relaxing and enjoyable and the images captured are wonderful. Clare is also highly professional and every interaction was considered and thorough which added to the whole process and this really stood out compared with other small businesses, which made everything so clear and easy from start to finish.
