We contacted Alix as we needed some head shots for the following day. Alix was so helpful & completed the shoot for us the next day. The photos are beautiful, natural & exactly right for Actor’s head shot requirements. We will definitely be using her again!! More...

Alix did a family photoshoot for us in the Derbyshire countryside. The children were immediately at home with her and she related well to everyone in the group. She was able to catch everyone just doing what they do, and the result is lovely natural family photos. She is a lovely easy photographer to work with. Thank you Alix More...

Our photo shoot with Alix and the wonderful photos she took were everything and more than we could have hoped for. She made us feel so at ease, and often not aware that she was snapping away. We have many special memories to treasure. Thank you Alix. More...

Alix is the best to take authentic photos, she makes you fell comfortable and forget the camara while you’re playing with your family/partner or just alone. I had my first photo session with my fiance and we were scared because we both love photos but not when we are the models. Although we had fun together and all I can see is our complicity and love.

Fantastic photographer, photos were beautiful! I was cautious booking a birth photographer as wasn’t sure what to expect and Alix really put me at ease. She didn’t intrude on taking photos once little one arrived and had a very quick turnaround in getting the photos back to us! Great communication throughout! More...

Alix's professionalism and love for photography is evidenced beautifully.

From initial enquiry, Alix from Lumiere Photography was friendly, welcoming and professional. I booked Alix for Birth Photography to capture the moment when I welcomed our daughter into the world. Alix didn't interfere and remained focused in taking some beautiful photographs that I will treasure forever of our new baby and two other sons. I would definitely recommend Lumiere and will definitely be using her photography skills and services for family shoots in the future. More...

I cannot recommend Lumiere Photography enough. We spent a couple of hours with Alix a couple of weeks ago and left with crossed fingers hoping she'd managed to get a few good photos. .. neither my husband nor I were fully prepared for the huge number of fantastic photos that captured our gorgeous girl, aged one, down to a tee. I know we'll be back to Alix as Sophia grows and (hopefully) our family expands More...

We have just had Alix do a maternity and baby shoot for us and we can't recommend her highly enough. Her photos speak for themselves; you will not be disappointed with them! But what you might not be able to see is how well she puts people at ease in front of the camera and the warmth and care she brings to each shoot she does. She really cares about people and this shows in her photos. I'll never book anyone else ever again, Alix is by far the best! More...

Thank you Alix for such a lovely evening.We had a lovely time together, laughing between shots and on our walk around the beautiful Elvaston Castle (Alix knows lots of amazing local locations for shoots). For a long time I have been shy in front of a camera, but with Alix I was relaxed within minutes, which tells in the photographs. She knows just how to make you be yourself in front of the camera.Just the confidence boost I needed, thank you for making me feel like a medieval princess! More...

It will soon be the wedding season and if anyone is looking for a photographer I'd like to recommend Lumiere Photography. Alix took some great photos of James and Jenny way back in 2012 and by looking at her more recent photographs I can see she is still producing wonderful and creative shots.

I have been lucky enough to attend two weddings where Alix was the photographer. I warmed to her immediately, found her very easy to get on with and enjoyed her company. She was unobtrusive when working and has a wonderful quiet, calmness about her. Her images were fabulous, so natural and vibrant, and I know I was incredibly impressed with how she captured me, I have never looked better! Would definitely recommend xx More...

Thank you for the most beautiful wedding pictures I have ever seen, anywhere. Thank you for being so supportive on the day; looking back... the wedding would have been a mess without you. I am in awe of how you effortlessly float around with ease, and capture even the most camera-shy of guests in photographs that are worthy of Time magazine. These are not just photographs, they are art. I cannot thank you enough and will recommend you to everyone. The feedback from the guests has likewise been amazing. Thank you so much. xxx More...

Birth Photography: I wanted the Birth of my second child captured forever, in a moment frozen in time, that I can look back on time after time. Our baby was born in a pool at home. I thought it would be over whelming with a team of nine including myself and a photographer, but overall it went swimmingly and Alix made herself at home which put me at ease. She is organised, focused and professional and the images are absolutely stunning. More...

As visitors to the UK, we wanted to have family photographs taken as a souvenir of our time here. I called a number of different photographers and we chose Alix. She asked me questions about the children, what they liked to do and helped select a shoot location that worked with our family. She helped with many other decisions ahead of the shoot. On the day of the shoot, she was so happy, friendly, creative and competent. We all had a nice time romping around with her. On the way home, my 7 and 9-year old girls both said that they had a fun time. On a photo shoot! That's saying something. The photos were lovely and captured the energy and spirit of our children. Thank you Alix for giving my family such a lovely souvenir of our time in the UK! More...

We first met Alix when she photographed a family wedding and I was impressed by her friendly and caring approach as well as the stunning images she captured of a special day. When looking for someone to photograph our newborn she was the obvious choice, I knew we would have a special shoot and I wasn’t disappointed. She took time to get to know us and our baby and made the whole experience something to remember. Editing was very speedy too so we didn’t have to wait too long to see the results.

What do you love most about your job?
I love capturing moments knowing they are time travelling machines, that by looking at them you feel all the emotions of that time again and again.
I find it really optimistic to celebrate love and beauty in everyone. I know that when kids grow up or when we want to share our lives with someone, ar when someone passes away it's the photos that keep times alive and that we turn to.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started after a friend asked me to be a second shooter at his wedding and said he liked my photos better than the pro he'd hired.
I spent a lot of time in museums as a kid and learned to love light, colours and composition. I also love people so that's a fab combination
Why should our clients choose you?
I'm flexible, friendly, I go the extra mile and my photography is of high quality. I don't aim to be cheap or out of reach either.
I offer payment plans, ad- ons, gift vouchers to make life easier. I do sneak-peek slideshows during weddings and virtual albums on YouTube too.
