Let’s be honest - life moves far too fast. One day, your kids need your hand to take their first steps, and the next, they’re off and running, leaving you wondering where the time went. It’s a little unfair how quickly time flies, isn’t it? And if you’re anything like most busy parents, family portraits tend to fall to the bottom of the never-ending to-do list. But here’s the thing: keeping your family portraits up-to-date isn’t just about getting a cute picture for the wall (although that’s a definite bonus); it’s about preserving the To View More >>

Welcoming a newborn into the world is a monumental moment in a family’s life, deserving of a special Portrait Experience. Newborn photography is more than just capturing the first days of your baby’s life; it’s an opportunity to tell a story, your story. Personalising and customising your portraits can make these memories even more heartfelt and unique. Here's how to ensure your newborn’s photoshoot is as individual as your new bundle of joy. Choose a Theme that Reflects Your Family A theme can transform a newborn session from standard to spectacular. Colours - A colour To View More >>

For as long as I’ve been a photographer/parent, the topic of feeding babies, toddlers, children and teenagers has been a hot one. (If you’ve ever visited me for a Cakesmash session, you’ll know that even given free rein on the cake, some children prefer to take their time rather than dive right in. Some babies won’t eat the cake at all!!. Children go through so many phases, with their tastes changing so frequently that lots of parents prefer to make lunches to take to school when the time comes, so you know your child is being given something that they’ll actually To View More >>

Welcome to the Babies By Jackie Studio!  Located in the historic village of Hemingbrough, the studio was once a pig sty (hence the name!). But don't worry there's only one little piggy there now :-)  Relax in our cosy sitting area where you can see your baby and they can see you at all times. Chill out on our super comfortable sofa, while I take care of your little one. You can even have forty winks if you like - you won't be the first! The safety of all my clients is paramount at all times. Hand sanitiser is always to hand, and as you can see I am proud of my professional newborn To View More >>

Although older people and those with pre-existing medical conditions (such as diabetes, asthma and heart disease) are more vulnerable to becoming severely ill with COVID-19, the virus can infect people of all ages.  Newborns and pregnant women are always considered at risk and therefore we must collectively protect each other. I want to re-assure all of my clients that I follow good hygiene practice at all times to keep you and your babies safe, but at this time, I would like to take a moment to re-iterate the most important points and a couple of extra measures that I have put in place for To View More >>

BRAND NEW FOR 2019! The first day starting at a new school can be quite stressful, emotionally charged and quite chaotic. First day photos are often taken in a rush as you dash out the door, with no time to think about lighting, composition or even if your child is smiling! My Starting School mini-sessions take place a week or so before school starts, while uniforms are new and unscuffed, in my lovely calm studio in Market Weighton. And my personalised 'chalkboard' images make a stunning keepsake. PACKAGE OPTIONS There are three package options (package to be specified and paid for at the time To View More >>
