Had a maternity shoot with Rachel and could not recommend enough ! Absolutely stunning pictures - really good quality and she makes you feel so comfortable at the studio. I have never done anything like this before and she couldn’t have been more comforting in telling me what to do! Plus you get hair and makeup done included! Looking forward to going back for newborn xx

After having such an amazing experience when having my maternity shoot and the photos turned out outstanding, I just had to contact again and have a family/ newborn photo shoot...made me feel at home, spoke to myself and my daughter through the steps didnt rush us at all, constant use of having coffee and tea and I can’t forget the delicious biscuits you get .. ( my daughter may of eaten the whole jar full or was it my husband haha ) I would highly recommend to anyone who would like any family, newborn and maternity shoots, ruby light portraits is the one ❤️xx

I would say very honest that Rachel is the best. The way she made me feel when i had the maternity photoshoot is beyond me being able to describe it in words. She build up the confidence in me and like that i was being able to do some photos that at first i thought i wouldnt. After having the maternity photoshoot we went back and had the newborn as well. In each picture she takes you can see how much she loves what she is doing and how dedicated she is. Thank you Rachel once again for helping us to create so beautiful memories!

I cannot recommend you highly enough Rachel.
The maternity and newborn shoots you did for my wife and I were amazing, and you've done us so proud. Thank you for capturing our special moments so beautifully. 
Fran adored her makeover and wearing your beautiful gowns. We are surrounded by your beautiful pictures all through the house.
I know Fran keeps in touch with you, and we both look forward to more shoots with you as the girls grow up. 
Thank you again, and we will be spreading your name 🙂 
Best wishes, Paul x

"After seeing the amazing shoots Rachel had done with several of my friends I so wanted to capture something beautiful between my son and I. I have never really had the chance to have professional shoot taken for us before and after seeing Rachel's work it was a no brainer. The photos are like a work of art. On the day of the shoot I felt so at ease being there, even during make-up and hair and my son felt so at ease too ~ it's a lovely room to get made up in and chill out and pick out some gorgeous dresses! Rachel has a wonderful way with children and we thoroughly enjoyed our morning. Thank you so much. !"

"What an amazing experience! Not just getting amazing pictures but the whole day! I went with my friend, we sort of bolstered each other along and whilst Sam was having her pictures the lovely Laura worked her magic with my hair and make up we went for lunch then it was my turn! Rachel's rooms are simply amazing and set the scene and Rachel put me totally at ease I loved every moment and my pictures...well since seeing them I have definitely felt more confident held my head a little higher something I would never have thought of doing has made me feel so different even without managing to lose weight before as I had planned! Thank you to both Laura and Rachel x"

"After realising I had very few photos of me and my children and seeing Rachel's beautiful work I decided to book. I wasnt particularly looking forward to being in front of the camera but I was put at ease the moment I stepped through the door. The two MUAs were incredible and both really lovely. Every tiny little detail of the photos was carefully thought out and the results and incredible. The customer service throughout is of the highest standard which is no surprise as she is truly one of the nicest people I have ever met. Can't recommend enough and certainly wouldn't go to anyone else for photos now!"

last week i made a new friend. this woman is amazing at what she does.
i decided after the horrendous year ive had to look after me! i needed to remind myself who i was and what i deserve.
i saw so many stunning transformations and soon booked in. Rachel was fully booked for half the year and i was lucky to get in when i did.
i screenshot so many images before hand to recreate and on the day i couldn't drive to her home quick enough.
charlotte did my hair and make up and made me feel like a hollywood goddess!!! just wow!! i wanted to go sainsburys to do the shop afterwards just to show off 😂
rach did a shoot plan with the items i brought with me and we were soon underway. i wasnt nervous just joked my way through the shoot.. i could of spent all day there i loved being made to feel like a saucy queen for the day. i really appreciate you listening to my lifes dramas Rachel and making me feel like i am worth it!!! you are a life saver to all women xxxx’’

"We had an outdoor shoot with rachel me hubby 7 month old and our dog cannot recommend her enough she was so patient working with us on the run up to the shoot I have very specific shots I wanted and were I wanted them Rachel met every single one of my demands with a friendly face.

"I followed the page for the best part of a year before I plucked up the courage to arrange a boudoir shoot. I was worried about feeling uncomfortable and self conscious, but this was something I wanted to do for myself before having a baby. For a very long time I have been very critical of myself (off the back of being picked on for my size) to avoid being hurt by others. On the day, I did feel out of my comfort zone but Rachel is so encouraging and supportive, it didn't feel so strange hanging around in my underwear! Rachel listened to what I wanted to feature in my photos and also what parts I felt most conscious of. It felt like such a treat to get my hair and make up done and Laura did a fantastic job (thank you)! I was convinced I wouldn't like one photo from the shoot but I didn't need to worry - Rachel is an incredible photographer and an even nicer person, what you do to help is women is simply amazing. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the photos, I can see my features and my curves and this is one step closer to loving myself on the outside!"

"What a treat it has been to meet you at last this morning (after following your work for so long) and have the most amazing time at my maternity shoot! 
I fealt so welcome from the word go by yourself and MUA Adele.
I loved the transformation with my makeover, and my goodness, your selection of dresses put me straight into fairy land 🥰 
You knew how important this shoot was to us, capturing our rainbow bump at this special time, and us as a family of 3.. boy did you deliver. 
Your attention to detail is fabulous, from helping choose the dresses, to creating such gorgeous poses.. 
You were amazing with our tot Olivia. I could go on and on, I just think you're a lovely human being with a fab ethos and we can't wait to see our pictures! 
Highly recommend you and won't be using anyone else for photography going forward. 
Thank you xx"

From the moment Rachel welcomed me into her beautiful home the morning of my photoshoot, I felt like she was a long lost friend I had known for years. Incredibly I felt the same with her make up artist. Rachel and I chose some amazing dresses together from her Aladdin's cave of treasures. Everything felt so magical and I loved the whole process of getting my make up and hair done professionally. Rachel was very attentive in any ideas I had for my experience with her and I just couldn't wait to get started.
Even though Rachel is literally the most beautiful woman herself, she couldn't give me anymore compliments if she tried. she made my whole experience feel that much more empowering. she made me feel so confident just like a star for the day. I ended up doing some naked shots and I was trembling however these shots today are my most favourite. She captured my body in the most amazing way. I had no idea I looked so incredible pregnant at my heaviest I have ever been.
I don't know how she did it but I will be forever grateful that I get to have photos that capture the most empowering time of my life and the most wonderful day spent in her company. What an amazing photo album to look back on with only smiles and laughter from the memories of my photoshoot.
Thank you Rachel for welcoming me and my husband into your amazing home and I cant wait to introduce you to our baby boy, as our lovely friend when he comes.​

I can't recommend the mummy and me photo shoot enough!
Lillie and I loved every moment Rach made us feel so welcome and relaxed to the point where Lillie was throwing ideas in and trying to direct the photo shoot 😂
thank you for a lovely memory making day xxx

"Had a maternity shoot with Rachel last Friday with my partner and daughter and was so nervous. I turned up to the studio and was instantly put at ease. I felt amazing which is pretty hard at 30+ weeks pregnant. We have today received our photos and in love with them. Honestly cannot wait for our baby to arrive to be back and see Rachel again and have more gorgeous photos taken! xxx "

What a woman!! So talented and so lovely. Rachel was amazing from the start. Brilliant communication and a warm welcome when I arrived. Her hair and makeup artist is wonderful and talented too. Rachel showed me all her dresses and I picked a few to shoot in. She knows exactly what she's doing and put me right at ease. But wait, I'm not finished yet! She helped me to pose and was so complimentary and positive throughout the shoot. I got the images within a week and was blown away, I couldn't believe they were me. So beautiful. Thank you Rachel for an amazing day. Definitely one for the memory books 😘 xx

"Wow what can I say! From the moment I walked in to Rachel's studio I felt so at ease, from having my hair a make up done, to choosing the stunning dresses! I've never had a photoshoot that focuses on me and was actually really nervous! I had no idea were I would have to put my hands or were to look but Rachel guides you through every single second! She was even amazing with my little girl who loved the fact that Rachel had dresses for her too! I truly got her ethos of empowering women I felt incredible! I've just got my photos back and they are even better than I could have imagined! Thankyou so much, I would highly recommend to any female, any shape or size to spend a few hours with rachel and let her make you feel amazing! Thankyou again!! Xx"

"I couldn't believe it was me when I looked in the mirror after the make over. My husband asked me what I would like for my 60th birthday present and here I was getting a make over and a Boudoir Shoot.Made to feel relaxed from the moment I walked in and with Motown playing in the back ground, I danced from pose to pose.
Although nervous when I arrived both Rachel and I had a good laugh. I am so glad I did it and when I saw the photos I couldnt believe it was me - I looked femine, beautiful and sexy; not bad for a 60 year old.
Do it!!!!!!"

"We had our newborn/family photo shoot with Rachel and I can't recommend her enough, the makeover, atmosphere and company was second to none!We were made to feel so welcome and relaxed from the moment we walked in. As some people might know having a 4 year old and newborn is sometimes very difficult to juggle but it was a breeze having our photos done, the photography skills were amazing, we always knew if we had another child we would want a family photo of all of us and I would go there again and again to have the experience and photos of our new little family, 
Thank you again Rachel it was amazing! :) x"

"Today I had my boudoir shoot with Rachel. I went in feeling like one person and left feeling like somebody completely different. I can not rate this experience enough. Rachel is so professional but at the same time puts you at complete ease like visiting a freind. I had so much fun today and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering having it done. It's an amazing experience and definitely restored any lost feeling of femininity . Gemma the hair and make up artist was amazing to too. Thankyou so much ! 😀 I can't wait to see the photos xx"

"I’ve been wanting a boudoir shoot for quite some time but never got round to booking it. I didn’t really have the confidence, I didn’t like how I looked with being overweight with a massive mum tum and I wasn’t sure how I was going to pay for it. I ended up booking my boudoir shoot on a spur of the moment. Rachel had replied to someone in the late summer saying that the only space left in 2018 was 4th December; my birthday. I knew instantly that I wanted to do it on that day. If you didn’t know she offers a payment plan 😁👍 People asked why I was doing it and I just replied that I wanted to do it for me.
The days flew by and it was already here! I was so nervous but it wasn’t about the shoot itself. I was nervous about the amount of make up used, as I don’t wear any day to day. I was nervous about the outfits not looking good. I was nervous about not liking how I looked in the photos.
I arrived and started to try on some outfits to see which ones I wanted to use. Don’t forget to bring a thong!!! 🙈 The lovely Charlotte was doing my hair and make up, reassuring me all the time that I wouldn’t look like a drag queen or The Joker 😂 I was so pleased when I held up the mirror and still saw me, but less bags under the eyes and some extra pretty lashes ❤️
I was confident being in the outfits in front of Rache. I’ve known her since I was 11 and with some Spice Girls blasting out on Spotify we just got to it. I was extra confident having lost 5 stone since January. We reminisced, had a little heart to heart and had plenty of laughs and giggles at nip slips and face pulling 😂 Something I haven’t read in here yet is how achy you are the next day! Some of those poses really work the muscles and I was aching all over 😂
I opened the photos with a friend by my side as I was panicking about it! Once I saw the cover photo I knew they would be fab! I’m so proud of them I want to show the world 😂
I love my photos. Hubby loves my photos 😉😁❤️
Thank you so much to Charlotte for my gorgeous makeover and thank you so much, Rache for being amazing and talented, as you always have been 😘"
