" Verity has the unique ability of being able to capture soul and essence unlike any other. Her work is powerful, ethereal and beautiful, and her warm personality puts you instantly at ease in front of the camera "

Savannah Miller - Fashion Designer 

" I have worked with many photographers in a 20 year career in design, and Verity really stands out at being a master of her craft. She is very easy to work with, making me feel 100% at ease and the quality of her finished work was outstanding. Not only does she follow a brief with creative intuition and intelligence, she is punctual, and delivers exactly what was expected and when "

" Verity is a visionary. She is professional and playful and her enthusiasm is contagious. She takes the time to connect with you and hear your passions.
Her final images exceeded my expectations especially as she captured something that I hadn’t even seen in myself. A beautiful experience “

" Being photographed by Verity was an absolute dream, her warmth and gentleness made the whole experience so relaxing. She captured the joy we share as a family, and her gentle nature meant our shy 1 year old took a shine to her instantly. We were overjoyed with the moments she captured and we will treasure them always. As a mother I am always the one behind the camera, so it means the world to me to actually have some photos with me in them "

“ Working with Verity was truly a blessing. The process was swift, easy, professional, and the results were just awesome. Very editorial in style and quality. She was super generous and attentive to my needs throughout, and collaborative, inspiring and fun to shoot with. Shas an innate creative talent, but also a gift for making women feel safe, confident and authentic in what can often feel like a vulnerable experience.. Verity has given me some incredible press shots to work with, which is so valuable for me as an artist. She’s also helped me restore some of my own confidence and creativity, which was priceless! “

Jemma Jones - Mother / Designer

“ Verity was absolutely incredible as our photographer. She not only captured the essence of our day but also made the entire experience effortless and enjoyable.

 

She was supportive of what we were asking for whilst confidently guiding us to ensure we got what we actually wanted and had a canny knack for always being in the right place yet remaining inconspicuous. She took her time to speak to us and read between the lines and has given us pictures better than we could have dreamed of.

 

We are so grateful for Verity's work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and caring photographer.

 

When we look at the pictures, we sincerely could not have asked for anymore. She was perfect and her pictures are perfect.

 

Thank you, Verity. We love you!! “

" I was recommended Verity for the photo shoot I had in mind for my business and I immediately loved her style, so I decided to go on and book a session with her.

 

Verity was amazing from start to finish, she is a very kind and warm person and she was accommodating with my needs (I am autistic + ADHD) and although I was nervous for the shoot she was able to make me feel relaxed and confident.

 

I loved our session and moreover I love the photos that she took of me! Every single one is amazing and exactly what I wanted. I hope I'll be able to work with her again in the future "

Alice Rancati - Artist

" Working with Verity was an absolute delight.
The vision I wanted captured was the relationship between the wild, raw untamed feminine and Mother Nature, bringing a visual image that aligns with the music I create.


Verity’s adventurous and playful spirit was a perfect fit for collaboration, game for wading into lakes and venturing off the beaten track to find the perfect locations.


Verity had a beautiful balance of holding the space professionally, giving direction when needed whilst also allowing, and encouraging the freedom for me to express myself uniquely.


The finished photographs captured the vision perfectly and I have since used them in numerous ways to promote myself as an artist.


I loved the experience of working with Verity, her creative eye and joyful, enthusiastic personality capture moments of magic "

Working with Verity was an incredible experience from start to finish. As a female photographer based in Stroud, Gloucestershire, she has a rare ability to make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera. The session felt relaxed, intuitive, and genuinely enjoyable. She exceeded every expectation!

 

Whether you’re looking for a women’s portrait photographer in Stroud, a family photographer in Gloucestershire, or a branding photographer for small businesses, her work is thoughtful, natural, and deeply emotive. She takes the time to understand who you are and what you want, which shows so clearly in the final images.

 

The photographs are beautiful, honest, and timeless, the kind you want to keep forever. If you’re looking for a professional photographer in Stroud or Gloucestershire who works with warmth, creativity, and care, I cannot recommend her highly enough.
