about the portraiture I offer- family (including motherhood, maternity and newborn), weddings and personal branding for female entrepreneurs.

What type of shoots do you do?

Laid back and beautiful family and children's portraiture, either in your home or out in the gorgeous local countryside. I would love to work with you on your maternity and newborn shoot and that first birthday portrait or cake smash, or whatever it is you're celebrating!

If you are wanting to document the end of your breastfeeding journey, I live for taking photographs of Mamas with their babes.

Recently I have photographed a few large groups for big milestone birthday presents- what better gift for Grandma than a photo of all of her favourite people?

I am a huge fan of photographing couples who are celebrating their wedding or anniversaries too.

Recently, I have added to my offer to include personal branding for women in business- creating gorgeous, professional photographs for marketing and websites.

What am I getting for my money?

A session with an insured photographer with bags of ideas and patience, and twenty years of experience of shooting with people. (I have spent the majority of my career in the fashion and portraiture industry, so know how to light you and your space beautifully.) Some gorgeous, edited images, possibly a timeless print to hang on the wall, and an excellent day out (or in!)

What do I wear?

The best wardrobe is what makes you feel your most beautiful and confident. Something timeless in earthy colours is always fabulous, but if you have other ideas bring them! This is YOUR shoot. Feel free to coordinate complimentary colours with your group, this always looks beautiful. If you need advice or a second opinion, I'm on hand.

Home or outdoors?

The choice is yours. I think in home photographs bring a certain intimacy that is just irreplaceable, especially when you can capture baby’s first home or where the littles took their first steps. I love nature and being outside, and have a few wonderful location ideas up my sleeve. Bonus- kids love being outside too. So you won’t have to worry about a later evening shoot in Summer to take advantage of the beautiful light, because the witching hour ceases to exist when they’re too busy looking for daisies and running around playing tag! (Well, I have yet to be proven wrong!)

Branding sessions are obviously a different style of shoot, and we can work together on locations that suit your brand. I have a few places that I can suggest if you need ideas.

What if the kids are being miserable?

Sometimes these things don't go to plan. It might not be ideal, but believe me that with some patience we can still capture beautiful moments. This is your moment to drop all expectations of your children’s behaviour and trust me to do my job. Just remember the snacks and water, and we'll go with the flow!

The weather is rubbish and we're due to shoot outside? Now what?

Some of the most beautiful moments can happen under a rain cloud, but if we really can't shoot outside we have the option to move the shoot indoors, or reschedule at both of our discretion. Let's liaise the day before to make a final call.

I don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera. Should I still book?

I know how you feel! Why do you think I’m behind the camera? Jokes aside, these sessions are for you. Either to spend some quality time having fun with your most precious humans (and fur babies!), or projecting your best self for your brand. It’s my job to make you comfortable, and show you what makes the best photograph. Your photoshoot is about connection, I’m just here to capture it. And I promise I won’t force anyone to smile! Once you have taken the plunge and have these photos, you’ll forget you were ever nervous.

How long will it take to get my photos after the shoot?

Please allow four weeks for receipt of your edited images, available to download from your personal online gallery.

Can I get a framed portrait?

I think your portrait would look brilliant on the wall! I can provide a ready to hang portrait for an additional cost. Please ask.

Can I buy gift vouchers for a friend?

Absolutely! Email me the details and I will send them over, after I do a lil happy dance- because your support is everything!

How do I pay?

A retainer payment to secure your date is made at the time of booking, and the remainder before the shoot, both via Stripe.

I have more questions!

Please email me so that we can discuss your needs- I can’t wait to hear from you!
