One of the reasons I don't let customers choose the time for outdoor family sessions.
Every summer I get messages like:
"It's such a beautiful sunny day! Can we meet at 12pm or 1pm?"
And every time I read that message, I have to resist the urge to throw myself dramatically into the nearest hedge.Not because I have lunch plans.Because that's literally the worst possible time to photograph you.I know. It sounds completely backwards.
Sunny day = great photos, right? Wrong!!!!❌❌
At 12pm the sun is directly above your head trying its absolute best to give you:panda eyes,shiny foreheads,squinty eyes,random shadows across your face,skin tones that look like you've spent a week on a budget airline to Tenerife.
Then when I suggest meeting at 8pm or even 9pm, people look at me like I've completely lost the plot.
But the beautiful images you see on my website?
The soft light.The golden glow.The dreamy colours.The gorgeous skin tones.
That's not because I sprinkled Photoshop fairy dust on them afterwards.That's because of the light.
And unfortunately I still haven't figured out how to negotiate with the sun to move golden hour to 2pm.Trust me, I've tried.😅
I know late evening sessions can be challenging, especially with younger children, and I always try to find the best compromise possible.
But if you've ever wondered why photographers become slightly obsessive about sunset times...
Now you know 😌

Have you watched The Devil Wears Prada 2 already? 👀

I actually really enjoyed it!
Curious what everyone else thinks?
Worth the hype or should they have left the original alone? 😌
By the way… if you would ever like a session where you look like you just walked straight off the cover of Vogue/Runway magazine, I’m here 👋

Need your help for a moment 😊
Photography business changes so quickly lately that honestly sometimes I feel like by the time I understand one social media trend, another 17 already appeared and died.
I’m currently planning quite a few changes in my business and I’m genuinely curious about something.
What is actually the MAIN factor when you decide to book a photographer?
Is it maybe quality of work,price,photographer's personality,location,recommendations,style,social media presence,feeling comfortable or maybe you are simply here for entertainment and would never actually book a session?
No hard feelings.
No judgement.
I’m genuinely curious how people think nowadays because the industry changed SO much over the years.
So tell me honestly 👀

I’ve just come back from prom suit shopping for my boy.

Oh boy… he looks GORGEOUS!

There is absolutely no chance he’s escaping a photoshoot now. I can already hear the dramatic sighs and eye rolling from here.
“Muummm please no.”

Sorry son, but one day you’ll thank me when you realise your mother was documenting your peak 😌

Boys usually act like being photographed is a violation of human rights.
Girls? Completely different story 😂

Most of them secretly dream about the full glam moment.
The dress. The hair. The makeup.
Feeling like a Hollywood star for one evening.

And trust me… after seeing the prices of prom dresses lately, those gowns deserve more than one night out before being banished to the wardrobe forever 😭

So I decided to create something special.

✨ PROM MINI SESSIONS ✨

5 edited images — only £150

Don’t let that beautiful dress disappear into the back of the wardrobe never to be seen again.

Give your daughter another 30 minutes of feeling absolutely incredible… and years later those photos will remind her:
✨ how beautiful she felt
✨ how excited she was
✨ and that magical age when the whole future still felt huge and exciting

And honestly?
One day these photos will probably make YOU cry more than her 😭

Parents of teens… are we already prom-ready or are we all still casually pretending 1.5 months is loads of time? 😉

I often see posts in mums groups saying:
“I’m looking for a photographer that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.”
First of all, I would just like to reassure everyone that I still do not accept human limbs as payment. 😉Times are hard but not that hard.
But jokes aside…
I think many people genuinely believe photography is just pressing a button and magically beautiful images appear… and photographers are swimming in money vaults like Scrooge McDuck afterwards.
I wish.
The reality is usually quite the opposite.
That tiny newborn outfit the size of a loaf of bread costs the same as a decent adult coat.
The editing software?
You pay for one thing, then realise you need another thing for the first thing to work properly… and then another thing for that thing. At this point photography software is basically a Russian nesting doll of subscriptions
The equipment?
Camera, lenses, lighting… basically the price of a car.
And unlike a car, it doesn’t even drive me to Tesco.
And then there’s education.
Learning how to safely pose your baby.
Understanding light so you actually look your best instead of looking like you were photographed under Tesco car park lighting.
Knowing WHEN to click the shutter, not just randomly pressing it 700 times and praying for the best.

So no — people are not paying photographers just for “clicking a button.”
They are paying for the years of knowledge, experience and expensive mistakes that happen BEFORE clicking the shutter.
Hope this helps and you stop thinking photographers just turn up, press one button and go home rich😊

Your photos are either making people trust you…
or scroll past you.
There. I said it.
People decide within seconds whether you look like someone worth paying.
Before they read your prices.
Before they read your “about me.”
Before you even open your mouth.
And if your photos still look like “I quickly did them myself against a white wall” while you’re trying to build a premium business… Houston, we have a problem.
Because your branding is not just “some nice pictures.”
It’s the difference between:
✨ “she looks established”
and
✨ “she’s probably cheap.”
Harsh? Maybe.
True? Absolutely.
And no—my sessions are not just about standing awkwardly holding a coffee cup pretending to laugh at nothing.
Half of the women who come to me arrive saying:
“I hate being photographed.”
“I’m awkward.”
“I don’t know what to do with my face.”
Then 20 minutes later they’re out there looking like they own three companies and reject low-paying clients for sport.
Because something shifts when you finally SEE yourself differently.
You show up differently online.
You talk about your business differently.
You stop hiding.
And people feel that.
Premium brands don’t happen by accident.
Neither does the way people perceive you.
So if your business has outgrown your current photos and your online presence still looks stuck in 2019… maybe it’s time.

Let me know if you’re ready to stop looking like the budget option.
