BE IN THE PHOTOS 💗

So often I receive messages (especially from mums) saying they just want photos of the children. They don’t want to be in-front of the camera and it breaks my heart 💔
Trust me I get it, not only can it feel a little awkward but also in today’s world where there is such immense pressure to look perfect 24/7 it can feel intimidating but whether it’s taking photos with me or just of your day to day life, I would always encourage you to BE IN THE PHOTOS!
If you book me to take your photos there is no pressure, I prefer a natural approach… I just give a little guidance to ensure we get the shot 📸

They don’t have to go online, they don’t have to be printed and framed but make sure they exist so that in the future, your little ones can see the version of you now that fills them with sooo much love and happiness 🥹💗

I honestly don’t think much of the photos of myself on my own as a child. However, when I look at the pictures with my grandma I can feel her warm hugs, with my mum I can remember the efforts she went to to celebrate all of the small milestones in my life and even the photos with my dad, seeing how the years have changed him as much have they have changed me is such a blessing to have.

Photos can be a special keepsake for you and your family, not always the whole world!

Be in the photos (and book me to take them 😉)📸🩷

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!!! The only word I can use to describe this special day for Ivy-Louise 😇

The last photo is possibly my favourite photo of my photography career so far, I would never post a child’s face without consent but I hope you can see why I literally sobbed while editing this beautiful album ✝️🫶🏻

I currently have events booked in until August which is sooo crazy but lovely 😮😭 I do still have availability between my bookings though so if you have an event coming up and are considering a photographer please get in touch asap 💗

One year with our sweet girl 💗

Many of you know Rory as my little chaotic assistant 😅 but the truth is, I wouldn’t have even started my photography journey if it wasn’t for her! She’s has been such a blessing in so many unexpected ways! For every grateful 🫶🏻

Me and my camera would appreciate it if you keep the maths away from us 🫶🏻
But funnily enough, when working in fashion design I probably ended up using the pi equation way more than those who followed academic careers 😅

In this moment I knew exactly what I wanted to capture.
The nails, the hair, the close up details of the dress 😍
I was so focused on the image I had in mind that I didn’t even notice the guy bent over in front of her until editing 😂
But look at the end result!!! From a seemingly random picture to a classy photo that shows off all the little details ✨
If you’re ever unhappy with an edit, I’ll always be happy to re-edit it for you but no, I will not send you the raw image 😅

Easter holidays complete 🐰💗
As much as I loved being off with my girls I’m sooo ready to get back into things!
Some exciting shoots booked in over the next few weeks, my website needs some serious TLC and I mayyyyy be looking into building on my skills with an in person course 👶🏻 which will broaden what I can offer as a family photographer 😁💗
