Harrogate Newborn, Baby & Family Photographer

Hi, I’m Kate! I’m a newborn, maternity and family photographer offering relaxed, natural sessions in Harrogate and North Yorkshire. My style is all about capturing real connection and quiet everyday beauty—without stiff posing or pressure to perform.

Whether you’ve just welcomed a new baby, are deep in the toddler years, or simply want to hold on to this fleeting stage of family life, I’m here to help you capture it all with warmth, ease and beautiful, honest photographs.

Relaxed Family Photography at Home or in the Gardens

I come to you for all my sessions—either in the comfort of your own home (especially perfect for newborn shoots), or outdoors in one of Harrogate’s beautiful green spaces. My approach is laid-back and child-led, which means we take our time, follow your little ones’ lead, and keep things pressure-free.

You don’t need to worry about posing or “smiling for the camera”—I’ll gently guide things along while capturing all the quiet, playful, messy, love-filled moments in between.

Family Photo Shoots in Valley Gardens, The Stray & Beyond

Harrogate is such a lovely setting for family photography. Whether we’re exploring the floral walkways of Valley Gardens, playing in the open fields of The Stray, or simply capturing life in your own back garden, your session will be personal, relaxed, and filled with meaning.

Client reviews

Not sure a review on its own will do justice to Kate’s photography. You need to see the images she takes! We feel so grateful to have had Kate take photos of our daughter / they are so beautiful and she made me feel completely at ease the moment I met her. Thank you so much - these photos will be treasured forever.

We loved our shoot with Kate in her beautiful light studio. Her warm laidback nature immediately put us at ease, and she was incredibly understanding when our newborn promptly puked on the lovely clothes she’d lent him for the shoot. The pictures are simply gorgeous, she’s so talented. Thank you, Kate!— Quote Source

I could not recommend Kate more. Our little baby was 5 weeks old when we did the shoot and we had the best experience with Kate. She was lovely, patient, an immediate friend and a fly on the wall at the same time. She made us feel super comfortable when I was worried about feeling awkward! Can’t wait to do more shoots as our daughter grows up.
