I photograph newborns, families, maternity, and couples across Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and nearby areas — creating relaxed and meaningful images.
Your story, your way.
This isn't about just taking beautiful photos - it's about creating something deeply personal.
Each session is curated with care, centred around you and your story.
I want you to feel seen, celebrated, and completely at ease from the moment you reach out, all the way to holding your final gallery in your hands.
01. Book Your Session
Once you’ve chosen your session and date, we secure your booking with a signed agreement and deposit. From there, the magic starts.
02. Getting to Know You
You’ll receive a thoughtful questionnaire designed to help me learn more about you — your connection, your hopes, and what really matters to you. This helps shape the session around who you are, not just how you look.
03. Planning the Details
Together, we explore location ideas, the atmosphere you're drawn to, and any meaningful touches you'd love to include. I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
04. Style & Info Guide
You’ll receive a beautifully curated guide filled with tips on styling, preparing, and helping you feel confident and comfortable. It’s all designed to make you feel amazing, and totally yourself.
05. Your Session Day
There’s no pressure to perform. We keep things slow and natural, allowing space for real connection and those beautiful in-between moments. I’ll gently guide when needed and step back when it matters most.
06. Curated Gallery Delivery
After your session, I hand-edit and curate your images into a gallery that feels like your story — soft, heartfelt, and full of meaning. You’ll receive your collection within 2–3 weeks, ready to download, print, and treasure.
07. Heirloom Prints & Keepsakes
Once your gallery is delivered, I’m here to help bring your images into your hands and home. Whether you're after fine art prints, albums, or framed pieces, I can guide you through the options and help you create something tangible to hold onto forever.
Real is the real luxury
"Simona puts you at ease straight away when you are in a session with her. The photographs she takes really reflects this, as they feel natural and capture the comfortable feeling. Nothing is forced or awkward. We love what Simona has created for us. I Will 100% use Moments by Simona again"
