Let’s start by talking about where you are right now.
Whether you’re welcoming a new baby, watching little ones grow too fast, or simply wanting to freeze time on this chapter of your family’s journey.
DO IT FOR YOU
You’ve been living something deeply meaningful for a while now, but you feel it slipping through your fingers. The years move quickly, and though you’ve snapped photos on your phone, they don’t quite capture the feeling you want to hold onto.
DO IT FOR THEM
Maybe you can already picture the images you’d love to have framed in your home, or maybe you just know this: the story unfolding in your life right now deserves to be remembered.
DO IT FOR US
You’ve been wearing all the hats; nurturing, working, loving, holding it all together. Creating timeless photographs keeps sliding down the list. Not because it isn’t important, but because everything else feels more urgent.
And when you do think about it, a part of you wonders:
Can anyone really capture us as we are?
~
Will it feel natural, or staged?

The answer: yes. That’s exactly what I do.

“Wow. We were utterly blown away by our experience with Alex. She made us feel like a priority at every step of the process, replying quickly & being so attentive, no query was too small. When Alex came round she fit in to our household like an old friend, sitting with our Labrador on her lap discussing how the shoot would go. Safe to say, our ‘Wally’ made a best friend that day!”
Maybe this feels familiar…
You’ve got phone galleries full of half-blurry snaps, little smiles, tiny details you swore you’d never forget, but they don’t tell the full story.
You’ve had a few family photos done before, but they felt stiff, overly posed, not you.
You’ve looked at what other people are doing, matching outfits, studio backdrops, staged perfection, but something in you wants more. More heart. More honesty. More meaning.
If this sounds like you and you’re ready for photographs that feel like your story, not someone else’s idea of it—you’re in the right place.
“I’m still not sure how she did it as it felt like our baby girl was crying through the whole thing. I would highly recommend Alex to take your photos, you won’t be disappointed. We most definitely will be returning for more in years to come!”

The Process…
Discovery & Connection
This is where we tune in. Together, we uncover what matters most to you right now, the moments, relationships, and feelings you want to hold onto. It’s about finding the thread that runs through your family story. Once we have it, the rest becomes clear.
The Session
Here’s where it all comes to life. We create space for play, for presence, for quiet moments and loud laughter. Whether outdoors in golden light or in the comfort of your home, I guide gently while letting real moments unfold.
The Curation
This is where good photographs become great. I hand-select the images that speak to your story most powerfully, refined, artful, emotive. The kind of photographs that will still move you decades from now.
The Reveal
Your story, preserved in photographs that won’t just sit on a hard drive, they’ll live on your walls, in albums, in the hands of your children one day. A legacy you can touch and feel.
A note from Alex, your motherhood photographer
I started out drawn to stories, how quickly they pass, how fragile memory can feel. Over time, I realised photography wasn’t about creating something perfect, it was about keeping something true.
That’s why theUNTOLDphoto was born. A space to capture connection with honesty and artistry. A way to preserve the real, the raw, the fleeting, so you don’t look back wishing you’d held it closer.
Since then, I’ve worked with over 300+ families, new parents, and couples who want photographs that go deeper than surface smiles. They want images that will still matter when the little ones are grown, when the house is quieter, when life has moved on.
My process? Quietly powerful. Four steps to bring you back into the present moment, so what’s captured is a reflection, not a performance.
Core Memories to Love & to Hold
Let’s get swept up in your beautiful bubble and create memories that’ll forever dance in your soul like shimmering pockets of light.
“All I can say is every single image was breathtaking, seeing your work come to live has been amazing, you can see how much time and effort you have put into our gallery and we couldn’t thank you enough.”

You’re clear on what matters.
You just need someone to capture it with heart.
Photographs that feel aligned, intentional, and true to your family.
Clarity in your story. Confidence in how it looks.
And the comfort of knowing these moments won’t be lost.
