🌈LGBT Partnerships welcome I'm a married mum to two beautiful daughters, and we share our lives with one very loved little dog and another watching over us. When I'm not behind the ca

mera, you'll find me baking something sweet, reading a good book, exploring with my family or walking our pup along the coast. I also manage admin for the business my husband and I run together - so life is always a little full, but always full of love. My photography journey actually started in the kitchen. I was really into baking cakes and desserts, and loved styling and photographing them before they were eaten - both for the creative side and to preserve something beautiful. But it wasn't until I had children of my own that I truly discovered the joy of photographing people. Capturing fleeting memories as my daughters grew quickly became so meaningful to me, and I realised I had found what really lights me up: storytelling through family portraiture. Now, photographing families, couples, newborns and mums-to-be feels like the most natural extension of who I am. Watching families connect, documenting love in all it's forms, and creating light-filled images that will be treasured for years to come β€” it fills my creative cup every single time. My Approach β€”
My sessions are guided yet relaxed - a mix of gentle posing and natural moments, with a focus on connection. I want you to feel comfortable, look your best, and walk away with images that reflect your love, your story and your season of life. To help ease the pressure, I can offer styling advice if requested an the option to use my curated client wardrobe for women, babies and children - so you can spend less time stressing and more time enjoying the experience. If that sounds like your kind of session, I'd love to create something beautiful together

I’ve been quietly working behind the scenes over the last few weeks, making a few changes to my studio and slowly turning my dream into a reality

You might spot someone else in this video… Rocki Dobra the photographer’s husband. The job he never applied for, can’t resign from, doesn’t get paid for, and where HR is an absolute nightmare. 🀣

In all seriousness, thank you for every hour you’ve spent helping bring my ideas to life. I couldn’t have done it without you. 🀍
