A fun family shoot at Coombe Abbey

March 19, 2017

What a great day out this was! We had a lovely run around the gorgeous Coombe Abbey Park and the hotel gardens with two very energetic boys and their brand new baby brother. I love capturing siblings together and these two had a lovely relationship and obviously adored their new brother. My fave shots from this day are […]

A Stratford in-home newborn and toddler shoot

March 12, 2017

One of the things that gets me about doing home family shoots is how intimate it is, and how much of a privilege it is to be invited into that space, where exhausted, radiant new mums and dads look adoringly at their new offspring. I often find myself talking to the mums about their childbirth […]

A (slightly delayed) stunning newborn in-home shoot

February 12, 2017

I was so glad to finally meet this little family. As I often say in these posts, babies have their own schedules, and I remember only too well how crazy and unpredictable those early days of parenting can be. This little guy had a few ups and downs early on, so it took us a […]

A stunning woodland family shoot

January 28, 2017

The sun came and went throughout our time in the woods this day, but when it was there, it made itself known. There was a little mist on the ground, and even a short hail shower just before we started, and it was a cold day, but it gave the woods a crisp, sharp edge […]

A new addition

January 17, 2017

One of the things I love most about my job is the little glimpses into people’s lives that I get. The snapshots of how other people spend their days, the ways they interact, the relationships, the love. And that’s what I aim to record when I turn up on your doorstep, or meet you in […]

Best of Family and Babies 2016

January 9, 2017

2016 was a year filled with family fun for me. I spent many a Sunday running around parks, climbing trees, chasing squirrels, throwing leaves, feeding ducks and – most of all – capturing beautiful family moments. My aim with my family shoots has always been to get people having fun in a way that is […]

A misty canal photoshoot

January 9, 2017

As I drove across the countryside towards the canal, through a soupy, creamy, thick fog, I was worried. I hadn’t shot in thick fog before and I had no idea if it would work. Add to that the fact that we were shooting on a canal side, which seriously limits my ability to run circles […]

And so there were four…

January 6, 2017

This was a really fun shoot, meeting a family who recently became four. Baby shoots and family shoots don’t have to be indoors, you can always wrap up and go for a day in the park, and in my experience, this works out great for the toddlers and children, who tend to hate staying still […]

A natural newborn shoot

January 5, 2017

Anyone who’s ever had a baby in their lives knows that all they want in the early days is their mummy – the closeness, contact, the feeling of their mother’s skin on theirs – and his little guy was no different. Despite our best efforts, little Leo was far too comfy with his mummy to be put […]

2016 : A year in weddings

January 4, 2017

2016 has been one hell of a year for me, both professionally and personally. It’s the year I went back to work after becoming a parent, it’s the year I started taking on my own weddings, it was the launch of my family photography business. I’ve loved this year in so many ways. I’ve had […]
