"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!"

"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 "

"I would like to say a massive thank you to Rachel, I've always wanted my photos done for my husband-to-be, we are getting married at the end of September and I wanted a boudoir shoot done for him to open on the morning of our wedding as a surprise, and now he can! I can't thank Rachel enough - she was amazing, she made me feel at home as soon as I walked in to her house. She guided me through the photoshoot and my nerves soon went, I felt amazing whilst doing it and as soon as I finished I felt sexy and like a new woman. I would recommend this experience to any woman"

"Hi everyone, it’s Helen here. I booked my session with Rachel for last Tuesday after much inner debate, as you can see, I am a mature lady (68 years young). I recently got married and could not find a make up artist or hairdresser for my big day. Did call a few, All said... will get back to you. None did. I managed by myself. So... hence the session. Was so nervous, but from the first moment Rachel put me at ease. She is so professional and kind. The make up artist was friendly and funny taking all my nerves away! I loved the dressing up most, Rachel’s dress was so pretty I felt like a fairy ( wish I had the figure of one!) I took some outfits of my own and was encouraged to pose in ways that were very kind in hiding all my bulgy bits. Lol the end result is.... I adore my pictures, hubby has chosen his favourites, my gift to him. I feel beautiful for the first time in a while. Thank you Rachel and your lovely make up lady!"​

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’’

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

"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"

"When I first saw someone post on Facebook about the boudoir photoshoot, I clicked on the page, had a look and was very intrigued. I felt like this was something that could really help me with the very low confidence that I currently had.
I kept talking myself out of it before booking, because I simply didn’t think I’d be able to get the confidence to do it! However, I booked a session and felt excited!
As the session day got closer, I got more and more excited. The day before and the morning of my session, I felt incredibly nervous. I parked up outside Rachel’s house and felt like I couldn’t get out my car!
Once I was in Rachel’s house, I was immediately put at ease! The make up artist that did my hair and make up -Gemma, was just incredibly nice.. made me feel comfortable and kept me calm.
During the photoshoot, I was surprised that I didn’t even feel slightly nervous anymore! ☺️
Rachel was amazing with showing me how to carry out each pose and made me feel like I was doing an amazing job!
For any ladies out there, that have been considering doing this for ages.. or have only just started thinking about it. I definitely encourage you to do it! My confidence has increased so much.. and I can actually say that I’m happy with my body now!
So thank you so much Rachel! 💕"

"I'd been following Rachel's page for quite a while after seeing something on Plymouth Gossips Girls group. Seeing everyone's photos and reading the reviews totally struck a chord with me.
Ive never been at peace with my body, forever picking at parts, forever watching my weight and comparing myself to others, not seeing what other people saw. I've got a 4year old and almost 2year old and my body confidence plummeted further since. I lost myself, my identity, struggled with 'just being a mum and wife', felt like I had nothing to talk about. After seeing some awful holiday snaps in April, then watching some of Rachel's live videos I took the plunge and booked a session!
I put the session out of my mind as it seemed ages away. The week before nerves kicked in and I almost cancelled! I went shopping and treated myself to a bodysuit which helped build some excitement. The morning of the session i drove with a stomach full of nerves and stupidly arrived early lol.
Having my hair and makeup done by the wonderful Charlotte helped to relax me, just chit chatting away I managed to put the next stage out of my mind! I went through poses I liked the look of and also informed Rachel I struggled to look direct into the camera so would prefer looking away shots.
Once in my first outfit change my legs were actually shaking uncontrollably haha! However, after a few photos i started to relax a little. I was so worried about posing but Rachel is amazing and literally poses you head to toe. I actually ached the following day! She even got me doing photos looking at the camera.
After the session it all felt so surreal, I couldnt process the fact I'd just been around someones house having photos taken in my undies! I couldnt relax whilst waiting for the photos as I honestly didnt think I could look as good as all of the other ladies on the page. When my photos were sent to me I was floored, Rachel is amazing!!!! I was more pleased than I ever imagined I could be. I went to bed grinning ear to ear that evening, I was so happy.
Rachel is a miracle worker. Every one of you thinking about booking a session, just do it!! I'm already talking friends into it.
Im looking at my photos every day at the moment, my husband loves them too!
Thank you so much, Rachel 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.​

"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 😘"

So as an anniversary present for my wife i brought the mini maternity photo shoot as a suprise. Wasn't sure what my wife would say and shes not one for the spotlight.
Being pregnant brought many emotions for her so i was hoping Rachael would be able to make her feel beautiful. And she did just that.
The session was completely about my wife and bump. I think the photo prove this.
Rachael has done a fantastic job. Making people feel comfortable and important. I am so happy i chose ruby lights and worth every penny spent. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photo shoot.

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
