LB Photography Mcr

I’m Leanne, the face behind LB Photography Mcr, and portrait photography is my passion and specialism. Based in Hazel Grove, I create studio portraits that feel natural, personal and true to you. My aim is always to capture the small expressions and real moments that make a portrait unique — the relaxed smile, the confident look, the tenderness between family members — so you come away with images that feel like you and that you’ll want to display at home and share with loved ones. What sets my portrait work apart is the combination of a gentle, conversational approach and a carefully designed studio environment. I know how nerve‑wracking being in front of a camera can feel, so I focus on making sessions calm, friendly and fun. I guide poses in a reassuring way, use simple prompts to spark genuine reactions, and choose colours and styling that complement where your photos will hang — this attention to detail helps create timeless portraits rather than trendy snapshots. I take great pride in listening to each client. Before the session I’ll talk through your ideas, discuss wardrobe and the look you want to achieve, and help select studio outfits and props where needed. On the day, I pace the shoot to suit you so we capture authentic expressions without rushing. Post‑session, I apply careful, natural retouching to ensure skin tones are flattering and distractions are removed, while keeping the integrity of the moment intact. In addition to individual and family portraiture, I also welcome maternity portrait sessions. Maternity work is something I love — it’s intimate, emotional and a beautiful way to mark a special chapter. Whether you want classic studio portraits or more styled, story‑led images, I’ll help craft photographs that celebrate this time. Choosing LB Photography Mcr means booking a photographer who cares deeply about telling your story with warmth and professionalism. My background in caring professions informs how I work: empathetically, patiently and with genuine respect for family moments. If you’re after a relaxed studio portrait experience in Hazel Grove that results in meaningful, high‑quality images, I’d love to meet you and create keepsakes you’ll treasure.
