I came across Gem's work through friends and I contacted her to arrange a family session. She was super responsive from day one, she was also a super helpful finding the perfect spot for our shoot. My son just woke up when we arrived to the location so I was quite nervous that he we won't get the shots that we were hoping for. Gem was really amazing, she was super friendly and gave us plenty of space so we could just be ourselves. We received some sneak peak pictures quite early on and didn't have to wait for long for the rest of them either. We are absolutely in love with all the photos and it was a great experience. I can highly recommend her to everyone who is looking for beautiful, relaxed photos. She is an absolute joy to work with.

We had an amazing experience working with Gem. She was really understanding about postponing the first attempt of the shoot due to illness and weather and was committed to us getting the best out of the day. We visited Stockhill woods and Gem had some great spots for us to capture some really memorable images. Gem was really natural with our 2y.o twins capturing some really beautiful family moments. A great day and we were so pleased with the resulting pictures we will cherish for ever!

I highly recommend Gem. We had a lovely photosession and Gem was amazing right from the start, from recommending the perfect location to giving us all the details that we needed about the shoot well in advance. She was flexible and very kindly rescheduled our shoot due to weather conditions. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos when we received them. She sent the photos really quickly and we were really pleased because we wanted to see all the beautiful moments she captured. My kids, my husband and I all had lots of fun during the shoot, and Gem was so kind and lovely to my children and captured us all naturally. She gave us lots of space and let us do our own thing. I will be booking her again in the future for sure!

We have had a fantastic experience with Gem as our wedding photographer. In the lead up to our special day she was extremely responsive and super helpful with our many questions. We opted to go for an engagement shoot a couple of months before the main event which was really worth doing as it meant we got to know each other and Gem's photography style. This ensured that one very important element of our wedding day ran nice and smoothly. We also got some epic pics up on Dartmoor so that was no bad thing either! The wedding day itself was captured wonderfully by Gem. We had overcast and rainy weather but Gem showed great skill in getting the best out of the conditions. She even came equipped with some nifty umbrellas which turned out to be awesome props for our couple's shoot in the orchard. There were also many candid moments captured throughout the day as she glided around without being noticed. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Gem for any occasion. A really first rate professional experience!

Gem visited us and took the most wonderful pictures for a family and small business shoot. Gem was very professional, making us all feel relaxed in front of the camera and making the whole process fun and enjoyable. We received the photos very quickly afterwards and were so happy with the amazing moments Gem captured. I would highly recommend Gem to anyone looking for a photographer.

My wife and I cannot thank and praise Gemma enough for her incredible work capturing our wedding! We fell in love with Gemma's unique style after seeing her work on social media and our own photos are every bit as amazing! We are just so over the moon with how Gemma was able to capture so many special moments and even almost built a story of our day through her online gallery (private to our event) which made viewing the photos even more enjoyable. Gemma worked tirelessly and non-stop for the entire time, switching between cameras (even brought a polaroid camera to give print outs to guests which they loved!) so if you see this Gem, Danni & I really cannot thank you enough. For anyone reading this, hire Gemma! You won't regret it!

We had Gem photograph our wedding in September this year and we were over the moon with the results. Gem was really quick to respond, fantastic value and really discreet on the day. She made us feel really comfortable during Bride/Groom photos and the shots from our ceremony and speeches are amazing! We also had an engagement shoot which was a great opportunity for us to get to know her and feel relaxed in front of the camera. Gem really captured the fun and love in the day and I would wholeheartedly recommend Gem for wedding photography. Thank you so much Gem!

We recently had a family photo shoot and have been really impressed with the experience. The photographer was very accommodating with the time and location of our shoot. We were keen to capture the family in our local stomping ground, nice and early before any of them got tired and started playing up. She really brought out the best in our 4 young children (which is not an easy task). The shoot was really fun and relaxed and we were thrilled with the photos.

Gem did an amazing job of capturing my daughter during our photoshoots! The photos are absolutely incredible which we treasure forever. I wasn't sure how my young daughter would be during a photoshoot as she had never had one but Gem made it very fun and relaxed and that allowed the photos to be so natural and beautiful. The service and communication was excellent. I would highly recommend Gem and her photography to anyone! And I will be using her many more times in the future!

Gem is a real professional. She catches magical moments from nowhere and makes the whole shoot feel very relaxed and casual. She has captured some truly magical moments between me and my little boy. The results from her scenic shoot wowed us and the photos have been printed and are taking pride of place in our home and have made wonderful gifts for all the grandparents too! (Gem suggested a poppy field that was local to us) Without hesitation, the best photography experience I’ve ever had and best results to match

We had a family shoot with Gem and she was so warm and engaging, without being at all intrusive or bossy, which really put my two kids at ease (aged 1 and 4) and resulted in absolutely amazing pictures! She captured each of their personalities so well, and managed to capture so many great shots without asking the kids to formally pose. She worked very quickly and adapted to their constantly changing positions and the fluctuating light conditions so efficiently. Very highly recommended - we had such a fun time and will definitely be booking her again!

Working with Gem was effortless. My husband and I aren't natural in front of the camera, but she made us feel totally at ease from the beginning. Along with gentle guidance on good poses, I loved how she noticed our interactions as a family and capitalised on them during the shoot. She also knew how to maximise every moment with a newborn! We wanted to work with Gem because we loved her style and her beautiful, natural compositions—and she went above and beyond both during and after the shoot. We now have a wonderful collection of photos that capture the emotion of a very special time in our lives. We couldn’t be happier.

What a lovely experience, I really wanted some photos of of the three of us whilst Wren was still newborn. My partner was a bit self conscious about it but Gem made us feel so relaxed and the results are natural and beautiful. Due to the pandemic we were forced outdoors but Gem’s style of photography suited the wintery parkland. We will definitely be going to her again for those milestone moments and would 100% recommend.

We were lucky enough to have a family photo shoot on the beach with Gem. We just had a lovely walk and did our thing, hunting for shells, splashing in puddles while Gem captured it all. We loved how relaxed and natural the shoot was and are thrilled with the photos. Gem truly captured us perfectly as a family, especially our toddler Joseph’s cheeky and mischievous side!! Thank you so much, these will be cherished forever xxxx

Gem came to my studio to shoot myself and my partner for our new business venture. She was super friendly and immediately made me for comfortable in front of the camera (not an easy task!) We were beyond chuffed with the final images, not only did she give us lots to choose from but they all convey the tone of voice i was hoping for and look super polished and professional - I highly recommend Gem for professional and family shoots alike, I've already booked the next session! Thanks Gem!

Thank you Gem for such a relaxed and professional branding shoot with you. As someone who actively shys away from the camera - preferring to be behind it than in front - I knew that I needed to show more of myself as part of the branding for my calligraphy business. Working with someone who put me at ease was crucial, and Gem was just perfect. She really understood the essence of my branding from the outset and captured it with ease - in fact she elevated it to something that I’d been struggling to convey for so long. I just wish it’d discovered Gem and her photography talents much sooner!

Gem is brilliant, I booked a shoot with her in August at the Lavender Fields and couldn't be happier with the service. She captured some great images for my business which really represented me, it was relaxed, quick and I would highly recommend for business, life and family. Thank you Gem, Kim

Gem was amazing and our photos are absolutely beautiful! I am so grateful. She recommended the most beautiful location for our photoshoot and I'm so glad we went there. I will treasure these photos forever. We also received the gallery really quickly and the quality of all the photos is amazing. Would definitely recommend Gem!

We met Gem in 2020 and hired her regularly since. We had 5 photo shoots with her so far and she’s been amazing every time! She is wonderful with my 3 children, very patient during the photoshoots (not all my kids were up for photos every time we wanted them to!) The way she tells our story through the photos is one of a kind and we love how she captures little moments with her camera! She’s been documenting some family milestones for us and we couldn’t be happier with the result! We love her work and will continue to hire her regularly to document our journey as a family. I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants gorgeous photos of their families!
