Meet the Photographer
Hi, I’m Claire
A Photographer, wife and Mumma to my gorgeous 10 year old daughter Meika. The creater behind Claire Elizabeth Photography.
When I’m not in the studio creating a calm space so you feel held, or behind the laptop editing, you’ll find me at Pilates, on walks with my two border collies, daughter and husband OR away exploring and enjoying adventures in our caravan with friends.
With over 14 years experience behind the camera working with newborns, kids and families, photography has been part of who i am even before I become a mum.
I know how important capturing these moments in time with complete presence and connection is. Because one day, when the days feel far away, these images will bring you back to exactly how small they once were and how fully you were there with them.
Gentle maternity and newborn sessions designed to preserve the moments you’ll one day miss most.

I felt like I was able to enjoy this special moment with my baby and time slowed right down - something that is tricky to achieve in today’s day and age but Claire did that! With her soft spoken words, her kind instructions, and her calming presence.

Claire was so calming and patient with our 5 week old son. Her studio was gorgeous, warm and inviting. We vibed really well with her and she bonded with our son instantly.
