Unrepeatable memories captured in the moment

natural newborn, baby & family photography | Cornwall

Cornwall newborn baby and family photographer

Life is short…

You know some phases in life are too precious to let pass by undocumented.

Whether it’s the arrival of a perfect newborn baby, or the sense that time with your family is precious & worthy of capturing, you want photos that will always remind you of all the love you now feel.

A portrait photography session with me is a chance to slow down and soak in those moments. I make myself right at home in the moment with you, capturing the sweetness and beauty of your world from within.

Life is too short to do anything half heartedly.

My name is Michelle - I’m a lifestyle newborn, baby & family photographer in Grampound, Cornwall specialising in the art of capturing natural life moments with simple, unfussy, emotive photos.

I have a home studio space in Grampound, Cornwall and offer sessions on location & outdoors too.

If you connect with my style and approach I’d love to hear from you!

my why

Michelle made us feel at ease and was so lovely with our children who are 1 & 3 years old. I didn’t have many expectations re the end results but when we met up to go through the photos I was really pleasantly surprised! They are just beautiful and so natural. Thank you so much, we are delighted! ~ J. George

‘True wealth is the value of your memories’

In a world of so much stuff, it’s important to remember what’s truly valuable. We overspend on things that will have no value in 20 years’ time, and forget to invest in our memories.

I only take on a handful of bookings each month so that there’s time to focus deeply on each session - from helping you prepare the details for a seamless session, hand editing each photo for your gallery & guiding you through your product & frame choices to ensure you end up with beautiful finished photos you will cherish for the rest of your life.

Bringing photos to life.

Seeing your photos in print must be the best bit - and the only way for your memories to truly live! I believe my job as your photographer is done until you have something beautiful and tangible in your hands.

“Yes, professional portraits are expensive. But they're the only splurge you'll keep forever. The only splurge that will get more valuable with every passing year. The only splurge that you'll never, ever regret.”

Testimonials

Maternity Photography at Porthluney Beach, Cornwall

“Our maternity photos are so beautiful!!”

Oh my, the maternity photos are so beautiful!!! Wow!! We are so happy with the photos! Such a great memory. We also really enjoyed meeting Michelle and really liked the photo session. Thanks so much! PS, sorry for the excessive use of exclamation marks but I am truly very excited about the photos!!!!

“Thank you for such a lovely newborn photography experience.”

When I looked into photographers for our newborn shoot, Curious Creatures Photography stood out with timeless, natural and real (no excessive editing) photos, and this is what we’ve ended up with - to have as a forever reminder of how little our baby was. Super relaxed, professional and personable experience!

“We had so much fun on the day, and the maternity photos are INCREDIBLE”

I can’t recommend Michelle enough for maternity photography. She took real time and care to make sure we felt comfortable (posing for photos doesn’t come naturally for us!) and she even accommodated our two dogs on the shoot. We had so much fun on the day and the photos are INCREDIBLE! We couldn’t ask for more and we’re so excited to have these family keepsakes. Really looking forward to our newborn shoot when the little one arrives.

“Michelle is absolutely amazing.”

She made us feel so comfortable straight away, got exactly the type of photos we wanted. She was fantastic with our two girls and communicated before the shoot to offer clothing advice and answer any questions we had. We highly recommend Michelle. She is fantastic.

Thanks for making me feel comfortable and for making it a memorable experience.
