Hello,I create beautiful portraits of newborns, people & pets, capturing personality & connection! 📸 It's all about the personality!

I create beautiful photographs of you and your children (even the four-legged ones), from my little garden studio located off the main London Road in East Grinstead, West Sussex. I specialise in Newborn Photography, and have undertaken training from professionals within the industry. As well as newborn photoshoots, I also love working with children & animals (call me crazy). Cake Smash Photoshoots are becoming evermore popular as first or even second birthday celebrations for little ones, and even dogs believe it or not. These are always fun, I really love to see your little ones expressions when they realise that this whole cake is for them! I love to capture those in-between moments, when your youngest has just whispered the most bizarre thing in your ear and you are both giggling about it! So please don't think that the pictures you’re going to receive will be stiff or lack emotion! It is my job to capture the very essence of who you are, as an individual or as a family! For more info on baby photoshoots, cake smash, maternity sessions, head shots or pet photoshoots please feel free to send me a message for a friendly chat.

Freddie's not that impressed that it's Monday again already! Where is this year going?

The next few weeks in the studio are extremely busy on the run up to Christmas so if you are thinking of booking, remember "the early bird catches the worm" 😃.

Happy Monday 💚

Baby's first year goes faster than anyone warns you 💛

One minute they're sleeping curled up on your chest. The next they're sitting up grinning at you. Then suddenly you're wiping cake off a one-year-old and wondering where the time went.

The Watch Me Grow package is my way of making sure you don't miss any of it — three sessions, one incredible year. Newborn, sitter at 7 months, and the full cake smash finale.

All three for just £149 (usually £199) — and yes, the cake's on me 🎂.

DM me "Watch Me Grow" and I'll send all the info over.

Thank you, Leia 💛

"She went above and beyond by thoughtfully including my late brothers' boxing gloves in some of our photos, creating memories we'll cherish forever."

Some sessions stay with you long after you've packed the studio away. When Leia told me about her brothers, and asked if we could weave their boxing gloves into some of baby's photos, I knew we had to make it something truly special — a quiet little tribute, tucked into the start of her little one's story 🥹

Photographs can do something really powerful. They can hold the people we love right alongside the people we're just meeting. And honestly, it was an absolute honour to be trusted with this one.

If there's something meaningful to your family you'd love to include in your session — a blanket, a piece of jewellery, something that belonged to someone you love — please always tell me. I'll find a beautiful way to bring them into the frame 💛

"When should I book my newborn session?" — asked in my DMs almost every day 💛

The short answer: sooner than you think. Dates book up around due dates, and the earlier we pencil you in, the easier everything feels when baby finally arrives.

Due in the next six months? Pop "newborn" in my DMs and I'll send all the info over.

"If you are looking for a photographer who can seamlessly handle every member of your family — four-legged ones included — look no further." 💛

Newborn. Big sibling. Mum and Dad. Two dogs. All in one session. 🥹

Honestly, these are the sessions I live for. The chaos, the cuddles, the "wait, where's the dog gone?!" moments — all of it. There's something so special about capturing a whole family exactly as they are in those first few weeks: tender, tired, overflowing with love, and completely themselves.

Thank you for the most beautiful words — reviews like this absolutely make my week. It was such a joy to spend the morning with your gorgeous crew (dogs very much included) 🐾

If your family comes with four-legged members too — don't worry, they're always welcome in my studio.

Meet baby Jesse 💛

This little man was absolutely not interested in sleeping for his newborn session 😅 He made me work for every single frame — but despite his best efforts to stay wide awake, we still came away with some truly beautiful images of him.

Stephanie & Will, I cannot wait to show you the frame we've created for Jesse — I think you're going to love it 🥹

Maternity Mini vs Full Session — the question I get asked almost every week 💛

They're both gorgeous, but they do very different things. The Mini is quick, focused and all about mum and bump. The Full is the whole experience — gowns, styling, family in the shots, and a proper gallery to choose from afterwards.

Swipe through for the honest breakdown, save it for later, and if you're still not sure which one suits you — just DM me "maternity" and I'll help you work it out.

"I first found Hazel to photograph my son 3 years ago… I recently used her again to photograph my daughter. The photos are absolutely stunning." 💛

Three years ago I had the joy of meeting little Theo for his newborn session — and this year, his gorgeous baby sister Indie arrived and I got to do it all over again 🥹

There is honestly nothing like welcoming a family back into the studio for baby number two. Watching how much has changed, meeting the new little person who's completed their family, and knowing these photos will sit alongside the ones we took of their big brother — it genuinely never gets old.

Thank you, Natasha, for trusting me with both of your babies. Words like these mean the absolute world ✨

If you're expecting your next little one (or your first!), my newborn diary opens around your due date — pop "newborn" in my DMs and I'll send all the info over.

Meet Gena & Gerry 💛

Gena won her maternity session through my giveaway with the lovely team at Numi Scan — and I had the best time capturing this little chapter before baby arrives. I genuinely cannot wait to meet their little one and photograph them all over again as a family of three 🥹

A little heads-up while I've got you — October is almost full and November is filling fast. Newborn dates get booked around your due date, so if baby's arriving in the next few months (or you're thinking about a maternity session before then), please don't leave it to the last minute.

Pop "newborn" or "maternity" in my DMs and I'll send everything over 💛
