Yorkshire Newborn, Family, and Motherhood Photographer
Photographing love, connection, and family life as it truly feels
I photograph love as it’s lived, quiet, tender, fleeting, and full of joy. I specialise in capturing the moments that make your family unique. From the delicate first days of life, to the beauty of motherhood, to the everyday connections that make family life so rich, my sessions are gentle, natural, and entirely stress-free.
Stories told through love, light, and laughter
Documenting Newborn, Motherhood & Family photography across Yorkshire
Whether at home, in the woods, by the sea, or anywhere your family feels most alive, my approach is gentle, natural, and entirely relaxed. I focus on real connections, honest emotions, and the moments that often go unnoticed, the glances, the laughter, the tiny details that make your story uniquely yours.
Here, it’s never about posing or perfection. It’s about preserving the way love moves through your family, so that years from now you can step back into these memories, exactly as they felt.
Life is a story, written in laughter, whispered in quiet moments, and carried in the hearts of those we love
Hi, I’m Heather!
The face behind Willow and Nest Photography. I’ve always been drawn to photographs and the stories they carry, especially those rooted in family history and the everyday moments that often pass too quickly.
If you’d like to learn more about my story and what shapes the way I photograph families, you can read more below.
Love lives in everyday life — in muddy toes, spontaneous hugs, and the little acts that show you belong to each other.
Let’s tell your story
If you’re standing in a season of becoming, of loving deeply, of watching your family grow and change, I would love to hear from you. Whether that looks like the quiet anticipation of a new baby, the layered beauty of motherhood, or the everyday magic of family life, these are the moments that deserve to be held onto.
I photograph families where life is actually happening. In the softness of home, in familiar spaces, or in places that feel like freedom to you. Not polished or posed, but real, tender, and full of feeling. The way love moves between you. The moments you don’t realise you’ll miss until they’ve passed.
If this speaks to you, I’d love to listen. To hear your story, to understand what matters to you, and to create photographs that feel like your family, now, and for years to come.
