Ok, so I have a confession. I am obsessed with photo booths, and the more vintage looking the better.

I cannot pass one without making the whole family cram inside for photos.

These latest ones were in Cornwall a few weeks ago.

What's your secret obsession, go on, tell me xx

I don't know about you but I love the summer holidays, lazy mornings, meeting up with friends and this amazing weather we've been having.

And as much as I want the holidays to last a few more weeks, there's something about the start of September I love. Maybe it's that new school year feeling, buying all the new stationary (like I need more of that) and everything feeling like a fresh start.

One thing I will be looking forward to are more photo shoots like this. I love the back to school photos, the clean uniform, neat hair and not forgetting those incredible smiles.

Bookings have started for Autumn/ winter shoots so if know a school or nursery who'd like to try a more relaxed, outdoor approach to school photos, tag them below or send me a message and I will be in touch x

Good luck to all everyone collecting their GCSE results today.

Don't forget they don't measure how amazing you are, what a great friend, brother, sister, son or daughter you are, how amazing you are at your hobbies or how you care for the people you love. You are all super stars.

Some of the first children I photographed when I started my business are collecting their results today, how is that even possible!!! To me I still think of you as little ones running around the park x

Some of my favourite nursery photos are the ones that include a favourite cuddly toy.

These toys are so special, such a big part of our children's lives and have been everywhere, adventures, holidays, bedtimes so I love including them in nursery photos.

In our house it's Patch, a Jellycat dog that's been alongside my daughter since she was born. I love seeing Patch in photos over the years, even if it's just to see how much cleaner he used to be x

Wow, what a summer!

I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to all the wonderful nurseries and schools that invited me back this summer, and to all the new nurseries I had the pleasure of visiting for the first time.

It's been such a lovely few moths meeting so many amazing children, seeing familiar faces, and making you all smile.

Also thank you to all the parents for your orders, for booking family photos shoots and for all the lovely messages I receive. They really all do mean so much to me.

Thank you for keeping me busy this summer - I can't wait to see what the next school year brings!

Loving my beach bag this summer!

Adam makes all of my work hoodies and he made this little (well, not so little) bag for me last Christmas.

If anyone needs any branded work gear I can highly recommend Adam who has a shop in Caversham x
