Welcome to Gemma Yeomans Photography

Award-Winning Newborn & Family Photographer in Derbyshire: Your Family’s Story Starts Here

Hi, I’m Gemma – mum of three, vinyl record collector, baby whisperer, also known as “mummy”. I’m your go-to photographer for those once-in-a-lifetime moments. Here at Gemma Yeomans Photography, based in a rural village near Uttoxeter, I specialise in capturing the little moments that make life so big. Whether it’s the very first stretch and yawn of a newborn, the bump-to-baby journey of motherhood, or the pure chaos and giggles of family life, I’m here to turn your most cherished memories into timeless art.

Why Choose Me?

With over 18 years of experience behind the lens, I understand that no two families are the same. From newborn snuggles to the hilarious chaos of a first cake smash, I’ve created a calm, joyful space in my home studio where magic truly happens. And as a mum, I get it. Babies cry, toddlers have tantrums, and dads aren’t always keen on the camera, but trust me, we’ll get those perfect shots (with plenty of tea and biscuits to keep everyone happy!).

What to Expect at Your Session

Think of your photography session as more than just snapping pictures, it’s a fun, relaxed experience that celebrates you. Whether you’re here for a maternity shoot, newborn portraits, or a family session in the great outdoors, I tailor everything to your vibe. It’s your story, and I’m just here to help tell it.

Beyond the Studio

As well as the studio, I photograph families out in our beautiful countryside, so if you have a favourite place or spot or just want some family photos on your home farm, get in touch!

Did you know? I am also an experienced school and nursery photographer. I offer commission to schools as well as complimentary website photo updates and a pricing structure to suit all budgets for parents. I pride myself on keeping an up-to-date safeguarding policy for schools, and my work is fully GDPR compliant.

Why Now?

Time flies, one moment you’re celebrating your baby’s first milestones, and the next, you’re helping them pack for university. That’s why capturing these fleeting moments matters. The images we create together aren’t just photos; they’re windows into the love, laughter, and connection that makes your family unique.

Let’s Connect

Head over to my Instagram to see behind-the-scenes snaps, parenting memes (because who doesn’t need those?), and heartwarming shots of the families I’ve worked with. Ready to book or have questions? Let’s chat!

This is just the start of what I hope will be a long journey together, documenting the many milestones of your family life.

Thanks for stopping by. Here’s to making memories that last a lifetime!

With love,

Gemma
