Our studio

The days are long, but the years are short.
Hold onto the moments that matter most.

My cosy home studio has been created as a calm, welcoming space where families can relax and enjoy the experience. No weather to plan around, no rushing, and plenty of time for feeds, snacks and the occasional toddler meltdown. The result is a collection of genuine, heartfelt images you'll treasure for a lifetime.

In their words

What families tell us afterwards.

We had such a beautiful experience with Legacy Photography for our maternity shoot. From the moment we arrived, we felt so comfortable and never felt rushed. She guided us through every pose, making the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable. The highlight for us was how amazing she was with our shy 3 year old. She made Ivy feel so comfortable and included, which meant the world to us and resulted in such beautiful family moments. I also loved the studio setting and really appreciated being offered a gorgeous white gown to wear, it made the session feel extra special. We're so grateful for such a lovely experience. We recommend Legacy Photography to anyone looking for a relaxed, professional, and family-friendly photographer! Thank you, we love all our pictures.

We recently had our family photos done with Karen, and she was absolutely amazing. She was so patient with my young son, who tends to get distracted and wander off, and somehow managed to keep everything fun and relaxed. We had a large family group, which isn't always easy to coordinate, but Karen made the whole experience stress-free and captured some beautiful photos that we'll treasure forever. We couldn't be happier with the experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and patient photographer.

I had an amazing maternity photoshoot with Karen and couldn't be happier with the experience. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the session, and her warm, friendly nature made the whole experience enjoyable. Karen captured such beautiful and natural moments, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning. She has a wonderful eye for detail. Highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer.

My experience with Karen was amazing! She ensured that my family was supported in the studio by bringing some toys for my toddler, giving us breaks between each photo, and even adjusting the music to make us feel comfortable. She is so genuine and kind and we strongly recommend her! She is definitely a talented photographer and this was the best photoshoot we have done before. Thank you Karen!

We recently had our family photos done by Karen after she photographed my daughter's newborn session, and once again she was absolutely amazing. She was so patient and wonderful with all of the young kids, making everyone feel comfortable and keeping the session relaxed and enjoyable. Considering there were quite a few of us, she handled everything so effortlessly. The photos turned out beautifully, and we couldn't be happier. We'll definitely be back for my daughter's 1st birthday photos, and we highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a talented, patient, and professional photographer.
