About Shoots and Leaves Photography
I love a pun. Hence the business name. After all, why be serious when you can be silly?
I am an autistic and gay mum of 6, I am passionate about light, so photography and finding beautiful light has become my thing. I love working with families and capturing moments from pregnancy to weddings, it’s just about seeing the love and everyone’s personalities. As a Forest School Leader and ex-teacher I am used to working with children, especially those with additional needs and I believe that families of all types and sizes deserve beautiful family photos. This is why I aim for a low pressure approach, usually working outdoors, but always trying to work where people feel most comfortable and relaxed.

I also volunteer for the wonderful charity Remember My Baby, who do remembrance photography for bereaved families. I’ve just reached 50 sessions for Remember My Baby, which is utterly heartbreaking, but I also feel incredibly privileged to have been able to support so many families at such a difficult moment in their lives.

Testimonials

Corinne did our wedding photos for our festival wedding, and for our private ceremony. She was fantastic! She blended in so nicely, and we got some amazing candid photos of us and our guests. She was great at the formal photos too, she knew exactly how to position everyone to get the right photos, and was extremely creative with our personal ones. I loved so many of the shots she got, and she really captured the happiness of our day! I cannot thank her enough, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her for your special day!

Corinne photographed our Bakewell wedding in the summer of 2023, it was a small intimate wedding with close family and friends. Myself and my wife aren’t very comfortable in front of a camera but Corinne immediately put us at ease and made us forget we were even being photographed, capturing really beautiful candid photos of us with our family and friends. We really loved that we didn’t have to pose for the camera and Corinne caught such real moments. Corinne sent the photos from our wedding over to us so quickly and we were absolutely blown away by the results, the pictures of us saying our vows surrounded by our family and friends will be cherished by us forever. It’s hard to put into words what the photos mean to us, we can’t thank Corinne enough for capturing this day so perfectly for us and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to photograph any special occasion in the future. Ceri & Vicky

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! Corinne captured every special moment so perfectly — even the little special moments we didn’t even realise were happening. Corinne has a way of making you feel completely at ease in front of the camera and somehow manages to be everywhere without ever being intrusive. The photos are absolutely stunning, and looking through them brings back all the emotions of the day from getting ready in the morning all the way to the last piece of confetti falling on the ground at the end of the night. Henrietta and Rodney

I couldn’t have asked for a more professional, discreet and polished service. Corinne was really thorough with her preparation and even came with me to a really remote venue prior to the big day. She was a calming presence and at times it felt like she was the only person there with a real hold on events! The results were a fabulous set of very artistic and both formal and informal shots that we’ll always treasure. Rosie and Stewart

Absolutely brilliant, LOVE our photos and the moments Corinne captured! couldn’t recommend her more. Also the loveliest of people. Hannah and Mark

Trying to convince 3 teenagers to have a family photo shoot is never going to be an easy task, but when they met Corinne, she immediately put them all at ease. It was relaxed, fun and felt like a two way conversation rather than a photographer dictating what to do and where to stand. Corinne just gets it, she knows how to capture the spirit of your family and the results speak for themselves. Our family portraits are so special and will be loved forever. She somehow managed to showcase each of our personalities whilst showing our family as a whole. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough for your family or portrait photos!

We had a fabulous service from Corinne while she took some beautiful photographs of us and our new business, The Rainbow Bar.
We feel much more professional now we have them. Corinne is very friendly, calm and professional to work with, highly recommend her.
