I am Helena, a creative photographer based in Bath, Somerset with a passion for capturing life's special moments.
Hi There
Capturing life's special moments from first flutters of a newborn to 80th birthdays- I photograph it all!
Since I can remember, I have always had a camera close at hand. Because of this, I have a beautiful record of some of the most important parts of my life. Looking back on all the photographs I have taken over the years, I am filled with joy and nostalgia, grateful for the ability to preserve those precious fragments of time.
I am passionate about offering that same gift to others, using my lens to capture all the big and small moments that make life so beautiful. Whether it's a wedding day, a newborn's first smile, or simply a quiet glance shared between loved ones, I am committed to creating a beautiful record of your history, so that you can cherish them for a lifetime.
From first flutters to 80th birthdays
I capture it all
My approach is incredibly relaxed and chilled, we will get to know each other first over the phone before meeting and the photoshoot will be gentle and go with your pace. I am not looking for anything posed or staged, but for the seconds in-between; where a little bit of soul shines through.

I love capturing family life - and family life is whatever that means to you…
If it is you and your children, you and your partner or you and your cats, I am here to capture your unique family magic. All you have to do is bring yourselves and I will do the rest. In a maternity session this is an inner connection with your baby and with my families it is that magnificent infectious spark between you all. When I photograph a wedding I am respectful and compassionate. I do this by getting to know you as a couple and finding out about your dream day. My finished photographs show you at your best: timeless images that you will treasure forever.
Families
Playful, silliness, dad jokes and laughter. Quality time with your family while I capture the magic.
Bump to Baby
Pregnancy or postnatal; I capture you and that special connection with your baby.
Weddings
Your love, the big moments and the small. I am here for your perfect day.
Drone Photography & Film
I picked up a DJI mini 2 in 2022 and slowly learned to fly it (very slowly!) and take good quality photographs and films of families and couples. I love flying the drone and it adds a really fun dynamic to my galleries.

Kathryn, Relationship Coach
I wish I could give Helena more than five stars as she truly deserves them. Not only is she immensely talented and creative but she’s also generous, warm and puts you immediately at ease. Having my photos taken by Helena felt like spending the morning with an old friend and the result is photos that I feel so beautifully capture my personality. I am so proud to display them on my website and can’t thank Helena enough for creating the exact look and feel that I wanted. I’ll be recommending her to everyone I know and she’ll be my go-to person for all my future photoshoots!

Brophy Family
Helena is a wonderful photographer. She did a family shoot for us and was very relaxed and accommodating when organising. She understands family life which makes working out the shoot easy and the resulting photos superb. Helena has a beautiful knack for making the little moments of family life look magical and timeless. Thank you!

The Lee Family
What can I say…over six month since our family shoot and I am still obsessed with our images. We have never done a family photo shoot before, and we’re feeling a little nervous but Helena made the whole family feel relaxed and at ease, making for a fantastic, fun experience. A moment in time captured forever! Helena is an extremely talented photographer and I couldn’t recommend her more. If you are thinking about it just do it, you won’t regret it!

Anna & Fred
Helena is a wonderful wedding photographer. She made everything so easy for us, from the initial discussions through to sending us the whole fantastic gallery just 9 days after the wedding! Her communication was amazing, always responding swiftly and warmly which made a massive difference during the otherwise stressful wedding planning. Helena’s photography expertise and sense of initiative were invaluable when considering photo timings and locations. Her photos of the ceremony and the reception really caught the essence of the day and looking back at them we are instantly immersed in the memory of it.
Theatre Lover & Nature Absorbed
I have worked as a theatre and event photographer and have been published in The Telegraph, Independent and WhatsOnStage.
I adore spending time outdoors; it is total therapy for me. I mainly take photos outdoors but can come to your home, or you are welcome at my studio if you would feel more comfortable.

Ethos
As a photographer and nature lover, I feel a profound desire to protect the beautiful world around us. It is not enough for me to simply capture its beauty in my photos; I want to ensure that it remains just as breathtaking for generations to come. It breaks my heart to see the damage we are inflicting on our planet every day, and I am determined to do what I can to prevent it.
I want to continue to experience the joys of spring blossoms, summer sunsets, autumn leaves, and winter wonderlands. But more importantly, I want to ensure that my children will be able to enjoy them too.
In my everyday life, I make a conscious effort to reduce my environmental impact but I recognise that there is always more that can be done, and I am constantly learning about new ways to help protect the planet. I am currently completing and Anxiety to Action course with Mothers Can network.
There is still hope and if we all come together we can have the greatest impact! Get in touch if you would like to talk about making positive changes within your community or want to know more.
