Celebrating Baby's First Year & Beyond As Your Family Grows
Life is made up of everyday special & beautiful moments. We never want to forget the smaller details we love and adore. Victoria Sturdy can help you remember these moments by capturing & creating gorgeous images of your little ones. Her work is creative, imaginative, colourful and timeless.

“Rainbow Baby” is a baby who is welcomed into a family after there has been a loss experienced due to miscarriage, stillbirth or premature birth. A Rainbow baby is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravage of the storm. When a rainbow appears it does not mean the storm never happened or that the family is not still dealing with it’s aftermath. What it means is that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkness and clouds.
Victoria Sturdy Photography has a strong ethos towards volunteer charity work and celebrating the miracle of new life. Victoria Sturdy is pleased to follow on from her time with Addenbrookes NICU charity and Remember My Baby charity to now “give back” to families of Rainbow Babies.
Not only does the Rainbow Baby gift session give a cherished gift to families that are very deserving it allows the opportunity to initiate discussion of what is a very sensitive but important topic of infant loss. Victoria Sturdy Photography is able to offer one Rainbow Baby Gift Session per year to eligible families.
