"I’ve worked with Ruth in a number of different projects and the results always leave me in absolute awe. Her eye for detail and the way she captures light is incredible! She’s my go to photographer so could not recommend her enough."
Juliana // Yellow Zest // 2026
“We loved working with Ruth. She put us and our team at ease when photographing our shop and a recent event we hosted. Ruth has a great eye and captured our shop in a fresh light. The quick turnaround with providing an edited selection was also very impressive. We will absolutely be working with Ruth again and would highly recommend her services.”

"Ruth was an absolute pleasure to work with for my photoshoot. She captured both the images and videos exactly as I’d envisioned and delivered everything so quickly. She’s incredibly professional and truly talented at what she does. I’m absolutely delighted with my photos and videos and couldn’t recommend Native Ivy more highly to any small business owner looking for the perfect product photographer."
Amy // Sage & Soul // 2025
“Ruth was super and I absolutely LOVED my photos that I got from our shoot in my studio. I hadn’t done anything like a shoot before and Ruth made me feel so comfortable and it was so much fun! Highly recommend.”
Kerrie Illustrates // 2025
“Ruth is brilliant at what she does! She has her own unique style of photography but is still able to bring out the individuality of the business/product/scene she is capturing. I was so pleased with how my photos turned out for my business, Storybox. The beautiful imagery has really helped us increase the quality of our content both on our website and on socials.”
Rachel // Storybox // 2024
“Ruth is a talented photographer; she has a real eye for styling and capturing the perfect shots. She is super accommodating, easy to work with and a true professional, coming equipped with a Mary Poppins style bag of tricks (props). I've worked with her twice, wouldn't hesitate to again and hopefully will in future.”
Amira Paints // Local Artist // 2024
“The reason I keep coming back to Native Ivy is not only for her beautiful images but for the way Ruth makes people feel about my products. She creates a soft cosy nostalgia that makes these simple little marshmallows look luxurious and wholesome! Native Ivy is a vital part of my Brand and I can’t wait to work with Ruth again.”
