Just had the pictures through from our family shoot with Helga and couldn’t be happier with how they have turned out. The quality and lighting is simply stunning. She really captured characters (especially in the children) and each time I look at the pictures I notice something different. A frozen snapshot in time to forever be remembered. I will cherish these pictures forever, thank you so much Helga. More...

We had a few sessions with Leoness Photography since our litte girl was born. Helga is more than a photographer. Each time, she offered endless support and advice, allowing us to feel relaxed from the beginning through to the end.
Our sessions were fun and we felt natural rather than uncomfortable. My husband was really worried for the first time as he hated the idea of being in front of the camera. He surprised how fun our session turned out and how relaxed he felt, thanks for the fun atmosphere that Helga created. Her professionalism and experience shines through, allowing you to relax and have a wonderful family experience! And the cherry on the cake is that the photos are amazing, truly beautiful and genuine. Helga really captured who we are as a family. I’d never choose another photographer!

Helga made a very memorable day with her photos.
She knows how important day was for us to have the photo shoot taken as our son is seriously ill and we don't know how long we can have together.
So Helga did her best and we are very happy with the final job ;)

Helga is amazing! I have twin toddlers and a 7 month old, she made the photo shoot great fun and captured how individual my girls are. Having had a number of photo shoots with other photographers I can see that what makes Leoness photos so special is that Helga takes time to understand the children and her images are truly beautiful as a result.

We recently had a newborn and family shoot with Helga. She did an amazing job capturing how besotted our boys are with their baby sister. She was attentive to detail, patient and built a strong rapport with the boys in order to get their attention for the shoot. Her photos brought a tear to my eyes when I finally received them. I would thorough recommend Helga to anyone who would love to create memories in print that are of high quality and tell a story. Thank you Helga! More...

We have had two shoots with Helga. She is so lovely and is great with babies, so calming and relaxed. I absolutely love all the photos she took they are really beautiful. The newborn photos were stunning, she's got such great ideas for taking gorgeous photos and lots of lovely props. We also had a family shoot and some of my 3 year old who loved posing for camera and jumping in the puddles. Helga made it great fun. Would highly recommend her. Thank you again for capturing such beautiful photos. I love them!! Xx More...

I have used various different photographers over the years to capture those 'perfect' pictures of my children and Helga exceeds them all. She was patient, we never felt rushed, my children we at complete ease with her and to top it off the pictures are absolutely amazing.

We had our photo shoot with Helga when my daughter was 6 months old. The place where we wanted the photos to be taken was not available but she kindly suggested another one which worked out very well.
It`s not easy to take photos of such a little baby especially that my daughter was hungry, sleepy and grumpy too but for my best surprise Helga managed to capture some really nice moments. We were pleased with her job and very happy to have such pretty pictures of the three of us.

I found Helga on Facebook. She was able to fit us in for a pregnancy/family photoshoot on short notice. She was very flexible and helpful.
She made really good pictures, had them edited very quickly. She also made the kids very relaxed so we finally have some good pictures of my son as well as good family pictures.

When Helga has offered a photo shoot for us we were so excited. She knew how important was for us to take some memories of our terminally ill son. Helga helped us to be ourself and we just thanked her for her patience when we had to stop for Luke. When we looked back our pictures we had to cry. Everything was in there just perfect. She really knows what needs to see! More...

Helga is very friendly and accommodating, and meant our normally grizzly baby boy was well behaved for the shoot :-)
The photos are fantastic!! I'm so proud of them, I have posted them all over FB and sent copies to my family!
Hoping to return in a few months for a joint shoot with my boy and my niece :-)

Helga was brilliant at our new born baby shoot, she puts you at ease and let's the session be run by your baby, so if he needed feeding we didn't feel under pressure to feed him quickly. She was very caring with our baby and Always making sure he was safe and warm. The final result of pictures are amazing, just so hard choosing which ones to have up in the house as there are not enough walls for them all! I can't recommend her enough, we will Def be going back for future birthdays abs occasions. More...

An extremely nice lady. Very patient and very professional.
If you're considering a photographer, for any occasion, look no further. You will not be disappointed!

What do you love most about your job?
I am fascinated by family dynamics, during the sessions I am eagerly on the lookout for those special natural moments that brings the pictures alive.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Photography has always been a huge part of my life, my dad sparked my intrigue from an early age. He was forever taking photos of us and captured so many happy childhood memories, that we still look back on today and remember fondly. I picked up my first professional camera after the birth of first child in 2008, driven by wanting to capture good quality images of him. Little did I know then that one day I’ll become a professional photographer, specialising in family and newborn photography.
Why should our clients choose you?
I do not offer traditional photos that nowadays many people describe as "boring" and "fake". Although I love traditional things and happy to capture some "cheesy" photos, my photographs are never stiff or uncomfortable. I capture the real connection, joy and happiness between family members. What I offer is a full and amazing photography experience that my clients will remember forever. During the session they will have an amazing time, walking in woodlands, farms or beaches, maybe just hang out with the family doing a picnic or playing games.
