A small selection of the photos on my latest blog post sharing this gorgeous lifestyle family shoot at home:

26/11/2023

One of my favourite shoots of the year. I was privileged to be present as photographer at Liliana's birth and to photograph the family at home in the early days. Making this an extra special Motherhood session, as it comes to the end of their breastfeeding journey.

My favourite place to photograph you is on a sofa, or comfy chair with natural light working its magic. By being photographed in the comfort of your home, you and your little one will be more at ease.

Baby Amanda's home birth.

What a home birth to be present for and have the honour of photographing. Emma is such an inspiration.

A beautiful home birth, supported by her husband, children and midwife, Paula.

Welcomed into the world totally surrounded with love!

Proud to finally have become a volunteer for Remember My Baby]

An incredible charity which offers a gift of baby remembrance photography to UK parents experiencing the loss of their baby before, during or shortly after birth.

I couldn’t have received a thank you note with truer words than this. My personal fear of not being strong enough, or being too emotional, needed to be put to the side. It always felt stupid to acknowledge these thoughts&I recognise how trivial they are in comparison to those experience faced by those parents who need RMB photographers.

Thank you to the two Mums who spoke to me about their experiences, when they tried to find a photographer to take the only family photos of their little girls and couldn’t. Sharing your experiences with me, put me on the path to become a volunteer for RMB.

Remember My Baby] is connected to a number of hospitals across Northern Ireland, but not all yet. I’d love to see that changed, so every family has the opportunity for beautiful photos of their little one&as a family.

One to celebrate the Dad’s.

As a photographer, I’m all about celebrating Motherhood&your journey. Getting beautiful photographs of you with your little one is always the focus of the session; but I always like to get a portrait or two of your little one with their Dad.

It’s usually on my client’s photo request list, so I know it’s an important photo to have. And usually I’m told that I need to be ready with all powers of persuasion, as this is done with an arm twisted behind their back! But if it’s important to you, I’m here to get that shot 🙌
