I’m Emma — the face behind the lens!

Maternity, Newborn & Family Photographer based in Ulverston, Cumbria

My love for photography began with capturing the everyday magic of my two little girls. What started as a way to preserve our memories quickly grew into a true passion. During lockdown, my husband surprised me with my very first camera, and I was instantly hooked. Determined to learn more, I signed up for a night school photography course and absolutely fell in love with the process.

It was after attending a newborn photography training day that everything clicked. I remember thinking, “Wow — this is my dream job.” I’ve always felt drawn to working with babies and children — at one time I even considered becoming a midwife — but life led me down a different path. I spent 14 years working as an NHS administrator, but the dream never left me.

In October 2023, I took a leap of faith and made the exciting decision to pursue photography full-time. I moved from my little home studio to a beautiful space in County Studios — the perfect environment to offer a natural, relaxed, and enjoyable photoshoot experience for families like yours.

It’s such an honour to be trusted with capturing life’s most precious moments, and I can’t wait to welcome you and your little ones into the studio.
