Hello and welcome!


I’m Daisy, the face behind Daisy Jessica Photography, and I live in Leicestershire with my husband and our two little boys

.

Photography has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. When I was around eight years old, my dad came home with a Polaroid camera and I was absolutely fascinated by it. From that moment on, I always seemed to have a camera in my hands.


As my three younger siblings were born over the years, they quickly became my favourite little models! I loved capturing their personalities as they grew although at the time I never imagined photography would one day become my career.


Growing up, I always saw myself doing something creative. I studied Art, Graphics and Photography at A Level before going on to complete an Art & Design Foundation course. Although I was offered a place to study Photography and Video at university, I realised it wasn’t quite the right path for me so life took me in a different direction and I spent several years working in retail management.


Everything changed when I became a mum in 2017. Like so many parents, I suddenly realised just how quickly time passes. I found myself wanting to capture every smile, every tiny detail and every milestone because I knew they wouldn’t stay little forever.


I started documenting our everyday life and sharing our journey on Instagram, and before long friends and family encouraged me to take the leap and start photographing professionally. In 2019, Daisy Jessica Photography was born.


As my business grew, I invested in specialist newborn photography training and completed a paediatric first aid course so you can feel completely confident that your little one is in safe hands throughout your session. Your baby’s comfort and safety will always be my top priority.


Since then, I’ve had the privilege of photographing hundreds of babies and families and it’s a job I’ll never take for granted. Every family who walks through my studio doors is trusting me with some of their most precious memories and I genuinely feel so honoured every time someone chooses me to capture them.


One of my favourite moments is seeing parents relax as they watch their beautiful gallery come together. I still get excited every time a new booking pops into my inbox and I honestly feel so lucky that I get to do something I truly love every single day.


Today I’m incredibly proud to welcome families to my dedicated studio in the heart of Melton Mowbray. I’ve created a calm and cosy space where you can relax while I gently guide you through your session. Whether you’re visiting with your brand new baby, celebrating a milestone or updating your family photographs, my aim is for you to enjoy the experience just as much as the photographs themselves.


There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing the images we create today will become treasured memories for your family for years to come.


Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know a little about me. I hope to welcome you and your family to the studio very soon!
