Birmingham Winter

It’s always wonderful to be able to meet up with old friends, so it was great to do a shoot for an old schoolfriend and netball teammate whom I’d not seen for twenty years. TWENTY YEARS! How in the world did that happen? I photographed her beautiful little family in their favourite spot of Moseley […]

Macmillan competition winner: in-home baby shoot

I was contacted last year by a lady who was running a Macmillan coffee morning with raffle, and was looking for some prizes to offer. I try to do a few charity prize shoots per year, as I think it’s a great way for me to be able to give to charity and Macmillan is […]

Always work with children and animals

Some people say to me ‘it must be hard getting children to cooperate’. The truth is, I never mind, because that energy that kids have is the very thing I love to capture. Throw a dog into the mix and it adds a whole new element, especially a dog that thinks it’s a puppy! But […]

A gorgeous in-home Grandparents shoot

I’ve only done one shoot before with grandparents involved, but never one just with grandparents, and now I want to do more!  Grandparents can be so integral to our children’s lives (and ours!) and I absolutely loved capturing that unique bond.

Golden hour at Compton Verney

Sometimes, the light and the people and the place just work and you end up with a set of images that just glow. I was so lucky to get to photograph my lovely friend with her beautiful family at Compton Verney recently and these images are some of my favourite ever.

A golf course engagement

I first met this beautiful bride-to-be back in the summer, after a bit of a Facebook exchange about her upcoming nuptials. I met her for a drink in a local pub and we bonded over being mums to toddlers. I was so pleased when she told me she’d chosen me to photograph her wedding. Apart […]

A wintry walk

It was a lovely sunny, chilly day in the park last Sunday, playing with these gorgeous little people. I’ve never had such a smiley pair! We covered a lot of ground, racing around the park and seeing all their favourite bits as well as seeing some new bits they’d never seen before.

Toucan Blue winter shoot

I do love working with Toucan Blue. It feels like our two styles work together so well. Their laid-back, nostalgic and fun clothing brand for kids and my whimsical, easy-going photography style compliment each other beautifully, so I’m always excited to photograph their new stock. It also makes me look at the images differently, because […]

Autumn / winter minishoot madness!

I tried something new this month – minishoots! I went along to a wonderful little playgroup and did a few short shoots for some of the families there, during their regular play session. It was a very different thing from my usual hour or two shoots, but I think we captured some lovely shots. Here […]

Down on the farm

Doing this job, you get to discover a lot of hidden gems, and some of those are just beautiful little slices of countryside you’d never normally get to see. This pretty farm is one of those places, and being able to photograph this lovely, friendly young family on their own turf was a joy. We […]
