The Studio

13 Arthur Street, Oswestry

NEW FOR 2025!

I’ve poured a lot of love into this studio, creating an environment that puts people at ease – even those who say they hate having their photo taken (spoiler: they always end up enjoying it!).

Located right in Oswestry, it’s easy to reach from surrounding areas like Shrewsbury, Wrexham, and the Welsh border villages. With over a decade of experience and a documentary-style approach, I focus on capturing the real, in-between moments – not stiff poses.

The aim of the studio for me is to create a space that is calm and relaxing and feels like home from home . It's a versatile space which is used to capture Families, headshots, babies and even pets.

Newborns

Calm, Timeless Moments in Our Oswestry Studio

 

Those early days with a newborn go by in such a blur – the tiny fingers, the soft snuggles, that sleepy newborn curl. My studio sessions are designed to slow things down and capture all those fleeting details in a calm, baby-led environment.

As an Oswestry newborn photographer with over 10 years of experience, I know that every baby (and every parent!) is different. My approach is gentle and flexible – no rushing, no strict posing, and no pressure. If baby needs feeding, cuddling, or a little break, we pause and go with their flow.

The studio is kept warm and cosy, with soft textures, neutral backdrops, and minimal distractions, so your baby is always the focus. I use natural light as much as possible to give your images a soft, timeless feel – no bright flashes or overly stylised props.

I also love capturing older babies and milestone sessions – those gummy smiles, first pushes up onto elbows, wobbly sits, and the unstoppable crawling stage! Whether you’re booking a newborn session or coming in at 3, 6, or 9 months, we’ll create a relaxed space where your little one can just be themselves.

You can bring siblings too – there's nothing sweeter than capturing those early bonds between brothers and sisters. We’ll keep everything stress-free and simple, with plenty of time for cuddles and connection.

If you're searching for a newborn photography studio in Oswestry where the experience is just as important as the images, I’d love to welcome you in.

Katy is absolutely amazing, so friendly it is like I have known her for years!! Her eye for detail is amazing and has captured some very precious moments for me that i can treasure for ever. I also have to mention how beautiful and elegant her studio is!! Thank you for the all the beautiful photographs Katy.

Family

Natural, Joyful Moments in Studio or Outdoors in Oswestry

Family photography doesn’t have to be stiff or awkward – in fact, it shouldn’t be. Whether we’re in the studio or out in the Shropshire countryside, my family sessions are all about capturing connection, personality, and those in-between moments that make your gang your gang.

At my Oswestry photography studio, I’ve created a calm, light-filled space that’s perfect for relaxed, natural family portraits. There’s no pressure to pose perfectly – we’ll play, chat, and let moments unfold. Whether it’s your first family photo together or your yearly tradition, you’ll leave with images that feel real, not forced.

If you love the idea of running barefoot through a field, cuddling under a blanket in the woods, or exploring a local beauty spot together, then an outdoor family photoshoot might be the one for you. I know all the best locations around Oswestry – from quiet woodland paths to golden-hour fields – and I’ll help you choose a spot that suits your family’s vibe.

Outdoor sessions are ideal for capturing movement and personality – especially with little ones who want to roam free! Think giggles, muddy knees, and windswept hair. And don’t worry if things feel a bit chaotic – that’s where the magic usually happens.

Whether we’re indoors or outside, my approach is always the same: relaxed, flexible, and focused on storytelling. I gently guide when needed, but mostly I just let you be you.

If you’re looking for a family photographer in Oswestry who’ll keep things easy and enjoyable (and who won’t expect your kids to sit still and smile on cue!), I’d love to create something special for you.

Branding & Headshots

Authentic, Confident Images That Feel Like You

 

Let’s be honest — most of us cringe at the thought of having headshots done. But here’s the thing: your photos don’t have to feel corporate or uncomfortable. Whether you’re a business owner, creative, freelancer, or just need a great LinkedIn profile photo, I’ll help you feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera.

My Oswestry photography studio offers a calm, private space where we can create a range of images that reflect you — not just what you do, but your personality, energy, and the way you want people to feel when they come across your brand.

These sessions are perfect for:

  • Entrepreneurs and small business owners building their brand

  • Creatives, makers, and artists

  • Coaches, consultants, and therapists

  • Anyone who needs fresh, scroll-stopping content for their website or socials

We’ll work together beforehand to get a feel for your brand — colours, tone, what platforms you’ll be using your images on — so when you step into the studio, everything’s already aligned. I’ll guide you throughout the shoot, suggesting natural poses and prompts so you never feel awkward.

If you’d prefer to shoot on location — at your workspace, outdoors, or in a setting that tells more of your story — we can do that too. I regularly work with branding clients across Oswestry, Shropshire, and North Wales, and I love creating sessions that feel real and rooted in your day-to-day.

So whether you need one great headshot or a full set of branding content, I’m here to make the process easy (and even a little fun!). If you're looking for branding photography in Oswestry that’s natural, down-to-earth, and totally tailored to you — I’d love to chat.

Mini Sessions

Mini sessions are short and sweet photoshoots designed to give you beautiful, professional images without the time (or cost) of a full session.

They’re perfect if you're after a quick update — whether it's family photos, portraits of the kids, or a little seasonal magic like Christmas or autumn minis. Each session is held at a set location, with a specific time slot, and includes a handful of beautifully edited images (with the option to add more if you’d like).

They’re fun, relaxed, and ideal if you want gorgeous photos without spending hours in front of the camera.

Keep an eye out for upcoming dates — these sessions tend to book up fast!

We booked our son in for a personality shoot. Katy was so welcoming & her studio was lovely. We settled in really well and Katy got some lovely pics of our little man. Our boy can be quite shy but he was 100% comfortable and that was definitely down to Katy making the studio a home from home. Communication has been great and we would love to use you again in the future. Thank you so much for our photos, we LOVE them x

Where is your photography studio based?


My studio is based in Oswestry, Shropshire — close to the town centre with parking nearby. It’s easy to get to from surrounding areas like Wrexham, Shrewsbury, and the Welsh border villages.

What should we wear for our session?


Simple, neutral tones always work beautifully, especially in the studio where we keep things soft and natural. Avoid big logos or busy patterns, and try to coordinate (not match) as a family or team. I’ll send a full prep guide after you book, with plenty of tips!

How long will the session take?

  • Newborn sessions: around 1.5 to 2 hours to allow time for feeding, changing, and cuddles

  • Family and baby sessions: 45 minutes to 1 hour

  • Headshots: 30–45 minutes

  • Branding sessions: 1 to 2 hours depending on the package you choose

Can we bring siblings to a newborn session?


Absolutely! I love capturing those early sibling connections. I recommend bringing someone along who can take the older child out for a little break once we’ve done the family photos — it helps keep things calm and stress-free for everyone.

Do you offer outdoor sessions too?


Yes! While I adore working in the studio, outdoor sessions are perfect for families or branding clients who want a more natural backdrop. I know lots of lovely locations around Oswestry — from open fields to woodland walks — and I’m always happy to suggest a spot that suits your style.

How do we book a session?


Just head to my Contact or Booking page and send me a quick message. I’ll get back to you with availability, a session guide, and everything you need to feel totally prepared.

When will we receive our images?


Your edited gallery will be ready within two weeks of your session. You'll receive a link to view and choose your favourites, and you’ll also have the option to purchase prints or additional images.

 

Do you offer gift vouchers?


Yes! Studio sessions make such a lovely gift — whether it’s for a new baby, a birthday, or a just-because treat. Gift vouchers are available for all session types and come beautifully packaged.
