Natural Newborn Photographer Near Reading, Berkshire
Relaxed, baby-led newborn photography just minutes from Reading capturing real connection for growing families across Berkshire.
If you’re searching for a natural newborn photographer near Reading, you’re in the right place. My calm, baby-led newborn sessions take place in a cosy Wokingham studio, just a short drive from Reading, offering a relaxed environment designed especially for new parents.
Rather than heavy posing or complicated props, sessions focus on genuine connection, gentle guidance and beautiful, honest moments with your baby.
Natural, Baby-Led Newborn Photography For Reading Families
The early days with a new baby can feel overwhelming, your photography experience shouldn’t add to that. Sessions are calm, unhurried and completely guided around your baby’s needs, allowing time for feeds, cuddles and settling whenever necessary.
Many Reading families choose my studio because they want:
natural, unposed newborn photos
a gentle, stress-free experience
guidance without awkward posing
images that feel real rather than staged
The goal is always the same: photographs that reflect genuine connection and the quiet beauty of new parenthood.

Natural Family Connection

They often return for sitting baby milestone sessions to capture their first year.
What Parents Say
"“We were recommended Rachel by a friend and all I can say is that I am so glad we were introduced to her work. On the day of the shoot she instantly put us at ease and set the morning up for a very enjoyable experience. Unfortunately our little man was not feeling his greatest on the day but Rachel was so sweet and professional, she really worked her magic even though he wasn’t co-operating. Rachel is an amazing photographer but also a very friendly and genuine woman who made an exciting experience even more enjoyable.” - Nikki
“Wonderful photographer. I’ve used Rachel a few times now and every experience has been amazing. I’ve recommended her to all my friends and will definitely be using her again.” - Miranda
