Olivia was the first professional photographer we booked, we trust her, and I am glad we did. She is amazing! The first moment we knew that Olivia loves what she does.Olivia is an incredible person and I was very comfortable sharing my maternity and my little son's first days. She made these days unforgettable. The photos are spectacular, and we are so happy. My maternity and newborn photos are absolutely insane, mind-blowing really.If you want the best photographs to remember your special time, Olivia is the photographer for you. Thank you Olivia for this adventure of a lifetime

As expected mother second time round, I really want to capture my pregnancy this time and Olivia have made this experience relaxing and enjoyable. Soon after my maternity session, I have booked myself for the newborn session because I can truly see her passion and devotion. It can be daunting seeing someone else handling a new born baby, but I can truly say Olivia is a professional and the whole experience has been amazing. Thank you so much for your hard work and I appreciate it.

I'm currently sitting in Olivia's studio, it's a beautiful and calm environment. Watching her posing our little bundle of joy makes me realise what an art it is photographing newborns, and Olivia definitely knows exactly what to do.I can enjoy the moment as I feel relaxed knowing my baby is in safe hands. Cant wait to see the photos Olivia took.I can HIGHLY recommend Olivia Rocco Photography.

ABOUT OLIVIA

OLIVIA ROCCO ~ AWARD WINNING PHOTOGRAPHER IN HERTFORDSHIRE

Thank you for visiting my site, I am a professional photographer based in the cute village of Stanstead Abbotts, Nr Ware in Hertfordshire.

I have families travel to me from Hertford, Ware, Hoddesdon, Broxbourne, Stevenage, Welwyn Garden City, St Albans, Buntingford, London and further afield from Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire. I am always extra honoured when people travel bigger distances to get to me. So far the record holder is 108 miles.

I absolutely love my job and couldn't envisage myself doing anything else. I took up photography late in life (in my 30's in fact) which given I grew up as a photographers model for my mum who was a wedding and portrait photographer, and my whole childhood is told through images which I treasure, it is an odd thing that I never thought to pick up a camera sooner. It was a flippant comment from a friend about how good I was at taking photos sparked the intrigue which FAST developed into a passion and a business. I always saw myself as an artist but I always thought it would be paintbrushes, however in greek, photography literally means 'Painting with Light' so I guess you could say my inner artist was finally set free.

I would love to say newborn is my absolute passion, it used to be until I started training in other photography fields like child and family fine art portraiture. So I now have to from the heart say my last photoshoot is generally my favourite - its a changing and ever-evolving thing, which is why I adore my job. I could not be anything, other than a photographer.

In October 2018 I gained my Licentiate Accreditation and Newborn Certificate from the Master Photographers Association which was an absolute honour and a full circle for me as the first trainer I worked with was indeed Ray Lowe the Chairman of the MPA.

I can now proudly say I have won 26 awards and featured as the image of the day with the Guild of Photographers twice.
