# Elli Cassidy Portraits
Elli Cassidy Portraits is a specialist photography studio based in Alford, Lincolnshire, dedicated to capturing the precious moments of family life from pregnancy through childhood. Founded in 2010, the business has photographed over a thousand newborns alongside families and older children, establishing itself as a trusted name in the region.
The studio serves expectant parents, new families, and families with young children seeking professional portraiture that authentically captures their loved ones. Elli specialises in maternity photography, newborn sessions, sitter photography for babies aged 6-12 months, first birthday cake smash celebrations, and child portraiture. Each service is designed to freeze fleeting moments in time—from the anticipation of pregnancy to the rapid development of childhood—allowing families to treasure these irreplaceable stages.
What genuinely distinguishes Elli Cassidy Portraits is the photographer's exceptional credentials and expertise. Elli has been named International Newborn Photographer of the Year by both the British Institute of Professional Photography (consecutively 2022-2025) and the Master Photographer's Association (2022). The judges' comments reveal the calibre of work: describing her images as standing out through creative concept, colour work, and technical mastery where "nobody stood a chance."
Safety and children's comfort remain paramount throughout every session. Rather than forcing artificial poses, Elli photographs children as they naturally are, capturing genuine laughter, candid smiles, and soulful moments that tell authentic stories of family life.
