Baby, Milestone & Cake Smash Photographer in Billingshurst, West Sussex

Sitter & Beyond · Every Stage After Newborn

Every wobble,

every giggle, every first.

From the first time they sit up to that gloriously messy first-birthday cake — every stage is worth celebrating, in warm and joyful light.

READ THIS TWICE IF YOU NEED TO

THEY'LL NEVER BE
THIS LITTLE AGAIN.

So let's celebrate exactly who they are.

Every wobble, every giggle, every gloriously messy moment — this stage is fleeting and full of joy. Let's keep it forever.

This Is For You

We're a perfect match if you'd love to…

01

Celebrate a brand-new stage — sitting, standing, those first wobbly steps.

02

Capture your baby's personality as it bursts into bloom.

03

Mark a milestone or first birthday with the joyful chaos of a cake smash.

04

Have fun — these sessions are pure, giggly joy.

…then we're going to create something beautiful together.

They change so fast at this age, and every new thing feels like a small miracle. One month they're a sleepy bundle; the next they're sitting up, beaming, full of opinions. My Sitter & Beyond sessions capture babies and toddlers exactly as they are: curious, wriggly and bursting with personality.

This is also home to the cake smash — that joyful, frosting-everywhere first-birthday tradition that makes for the most wonderful, giggle-filled photographs. I provide everything and clean up every last crumb, so you can simply enjoy the mess.

Sitter milestones, half-birthdays, first steps, first cake: if it's worth remembering, it's worth photographing — and these sessions are some of the most fun I do.

Every Stage Worth Keeping

A session for every little milestone

Whenever you feel there's a moment worth capturing, there's a session for it. Whatever you'd like to call it, we'll shape the day around your little one and exactly where they are right now.

Baby & Older Baby Sessions

For babies from around 3 months to 2 years — whenever you'd love to capture how they're growing and changing. Perfect for those gorgeous, expressive months full of new personality.

Sitter Sessions

The classic "sitter" session, usually around 6–9 months, when your baby can sit up unaided and beam at the world. One of the very sweetest stages of all.

Milestone Sessions

First steps, half-birthdays, a new tooth, or simply a stage you never want to forget. Milestone sessions mark whatever you feel is worth remembering.

Cake Smash & Birthdays

The joyful, frosting-everywhere first-birthday cake smash — and birthday celebrations at any age. I provide the set-up and clean up every last crumb, so you simply enjoy the giggles.

Not sure which fits? Just tell me what you'd love to capture, and we'll plan the perfect session together.

The Location

Where shall we capture you?

There are no strict rules — we're only ever guided by the light, the season, and the vibe you're dreaming of. Here are your options.

At Home

Familiar, comfortable and relaxed — lovely for babies happiest in their own space, with their own things.

Outdoors at Sunset

Warm golden-hour light in a Sussex field or woodland — gorgeous for sitters and toddlers who love to explore.

In the Studio

My boho studio in Billingshurst is perfect for cake smash — fully set up, mess-friendly, cleaned up by me.

The Journey Together

From first hello to treasured gallery

Booking a session with me is easy and unhurried from the very first message. Here's exactly what to expect.

01

Step One

You enquire & we book

Tell me the milestone or birthday you're celebrating, and whether you'd love outdoors, studio, or a cake smash. I'll answer every question you have. We'll choose your date together, and to reserve it I ask for a non-refundable £90 deposit and a signed contract within 48 hours.

02

Step Two

We plan together

We'll plan outfits, timing and (for cake smash) the cake and colour scheme so it all comes together beautifully on the day.

03

Step Three

Your session

Playful, giggly and led entirely by your little one. You join in or step back — whatever keeps them happiest — while I capture it all. The remaining balance is due on the day of your session.

04

Step Four

Your gallery

Within 3–6 weeks (4–8 weeks during busy season), your warm, joy-filled gallery arrives — every wobble and giggle, kept forever.

"The cake smash photos are pure joy — her little face covered in icing, laughing. We adore them."

— Sophie, mum of one

On The Day

Gentle, natural, and entirely yours

Led By The Light

We follow your little one's lead — there's no forcing smiles. I capture who they really are, wobbles, giggles and all.

Styling

Warm, neutral tones and simple, sweet set-ups that keep the focus on your baby. For cake smash, I provide the cake set-up and props.

Trust

Let them explore, play and (for cake smash) make a glorious mess. You relax, I'll catch every joyful moment and tidy up afterwards.
