What clients say

“Just seen our pictures from our newborn photoshoot. We absolutely loved them!!! The photos of our two beautiful girls were amazing. Exactly what we wanted. Had my makeup done on the day and I actually didn't look sleep deprived in the pictures 😅 would definitely highly recommend them to everyone!”

“I highly recommend Faithful Photography for newborn photos. the photos are better than I ever expected and with our little man coming 3 weeks early they didn't hesitate to bring our session forward. Dalia is an amazing make-up artist that makes new mums feel human after just giving birth”

“Dalia & Marten were absolutely amazing!! The photoshoot was nothing short of fun. Dalia did my makeup and hair for the shoot and I looked amazing! Both of them really went above and beyond to settle our baby to capture the best shots. Thank you guys! Can’t wait to come back for more family shots.”
