Testimonials

“Our maternity photos are so beautiful!!”

Oh my, the maternity photos are so beautiful!!! Wow!! We are so happy with the photos! Such a great memory. We also really enjoyed meeting Michelle and really liked the photo session. Thanks so much! PS, sorry for the excessive use of exclamation marks but I am truly very excited about the photos!!!!

“Thank you for such a lovely newborn photography experience.”

When I looked into photographers for our newborn shoot, Curious Creatures Photography stood out with timeless, natural and real (no excessive editing) photos, and this is what we’ve ended up with - to have as a forever reminder of how little our baby was. Super relaxed, professional and personable experience!

“We had so much fun on the day, and the maternity photos are INCREDIBLE”

I can’t recommend Michelle enough for maternity photography. She took real time and care to make sure we felt comfortable (posing for photos doesn’t come naturally for us!) and she even accommodated our two dogs on the shoot. We had so much fun on the day and the photos are INCREDIBLE! We couldn’t ask for more and we’re so excited to have these family keepsakes. Really looking forward to our newborn shoot when the little one arrives.

“Michelle is absolutely amazing.”

She made us feel so comfortable straight away, got exactly the type of photos we wanted. She was fantastic with our two girls and communicated before the shoot to offer clothing advice and answer any questions we had. We highly recommend Michelle. She is fantastic.

“Thanks for making my maternity photoshoot a memorable experience.”

I just had a chance to sit down and look at the prints from my maternity photoshoot. I love them, I’m so pleased, Michelle is very talented… Thank you! It’s been a really lovely experience and I’m so glad I did it. It’s pretty out of character for me to want to do something like this and I’m so glad I did.

Thanks for making me feel comfortable and for making it a memorable experience.

“I love my maternity photos”

Thank you for capturing just the two of us. For anyone looking for a relaxed, fun and natural photographer, Michelle is definitely the person you need to contact.
We feel so lucky that this wonderful photographer has captured some beautiful moments for us over the 5 years we have known her and we hope to capture more in the years to come.

“Adore our bump to baby photos!”

Thank you so much Michelle for capturing our daughter’s journey from bump to first birthday :) You've made the whole experience an enjoyable one. Always felt relaxed and comfortable, even when the kids haven't played ball! We'll definitely see you again for some more family photos in the future!

“We can’t recommend Michelle highly enough for bump to baby photos”

Michelle always makes us feel relaxed and comfortable, and our daughter responds so well to her kind personality and smiles! The baby photos she takes are beautiful… which poses many dilemmas when it comes to choosing the photos shortly after each session!

We can’t recommend Michelle highly enough.

“Gorgeous maternity photos!”

“Highly recommended for natural family photographs”

We had an autumn family photoshoot with Curious Creatures Photography and it was absolutely brilliant. Michelle was super friendly and brilliant with the family. Highly recommended for natural family photographs. Pictures look amazing!

Natural light photography: studio, outdoors & on-location

Home studio in Grampound, nr truro

I have a small studio space in my home in Grampound, Cornwall available for not-so-big families, newborns, child and baby photography sessions.

Outdoor & on-location photoshoots in Cornwall

I love to photograph sessions outdoors - ideal for children and pets on the move. We can incorporate the natural beauty of the Cornish landscape and the lifestyle we love in Cornwall.

Outdoors is a suitable option for any type of session - baby, child, family and maternity (even newborn), although these may be restricted by weather and best times for natural light.
