Voices, lost and found

This project explores the quiet, often unspoken reality of baby loss and navigating the emotional landscape that follows. One in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage, yet the experience remains surrounded by silence, discomfort and misunderstanding. Many women carry feelings of guilt and shame, hesitant to speak openly for fear of judgment or of making others uncomfortable.

Unlike other forms of grief, baby loss is often deeply private - felt most intensely by the individual or couple, while the world around them continues largely unchanged. This isolation can create a sense of loneliness, as though life is moving forward without acknowledgement of what has been lost. In that that silence, many begin to question their own grief, wondering if they should ‘move on’, even when they are not ready.

Through this work, I aim to create space - for remembrance, for honesty, and for conversation. These images and stories give voice to women who are so often unheard, allowing them to share their experiences and remember their babies openly. By breaking the silence, the project challenges the stigma surrounding baby loss and highlights the need for greater understanding, support and compassion.

These losses are real, the grief is valid, and that every story deserves to be seen and heard.

Thank you to all the brave and generous women who shared their stories with me over the past few months. Your honesty, strength and willingness to speak about your experiences have made this project possible. I have nothing but admiration and gratitude for each and every one of you. ✨

I will be sharing the stories over the next few weeks so keep an eye out and maybe one to miss if you are pregnant. ❤️

Little moments of comfort during the hardest months of my life. ✨

I’ve been quiet on here and away from work for a few months, and I wanted to share why.

In February, we lost our baby at 16 weeks. After weeks of tests and scans, we were given the devastating news that he had two very severe and rare chromosomal abnormalities. This led to an incredibly difficult and heartbreaking decision to end the pregnancy.
There aren’t really words to fully explain the grief that comes with this kind of loss. It’s something I’m still processing day by day.

This was my third loss, and it has hit me the hardest. We saw him on scans, I felt him move, I had a bump. During those long, sleepless nights, I searched for stories like mine, trying to feel less alone and less consumed by guilt. Those shared experiences really helped me process things and because of that, I was inspired to start a new personal project.

I’ve been connecting with women in the Sheffield community who have experienced baby loss, and they’ve bravely shared their stories with me, alongside portraits. It’s been raw, very emotional, and deeply honest.
I’ll be sharing the stories soon so keep an eye out.

I’m now beginning to return to work, so if you have a photography project in mind, I’d love to hear from you. 🙏🏻
