My work is rooted in connection, the kind that unfolds naturally when you’re comfortable, present, and simply being yourselves. After more than 11 years photographing families, parents-to-be, and newborns across Southampton and Dorset, I know that the most meaningful images aren’t posed or perfected. They happen in the in-between moments. The way you hold each other, the small gestures you don’t even realise you’re making, the laughter you don’t think anyone notices. That’s what I’m here for.

August always feels like the point where you realise summer won’t wait.

My weekends are fully booked until the end of September, but I have a handful of weeknight sessions available for anyone who wants to hold onto a little piece of this season.

Because these are the good old days after all. 🤍

It took me 13 years to shape my business and life into where I’m at now. The funny thing is, once I finally recognised exactly where my heart had always belonged, everything became so much simpler, and instantly everything just clicked!

I’ve always believed that simplicity is the key in business, life and motherhood.

I mentor a lot of photographers alongside helping with their SEO, and simplifying things is always where we start! Strip away the overwhelm, focus on what matters and everything becomes clearer.

What’s one thing you could simplify in your business or life today?

Home from the most beautiful 2 weeks away. One week in Spain and one week in Cornwall. Slow days, amazing food, daily swims in waterfalls, sea and the pool - precious times with my girls, loved every second.

Every year I leave a piece of my heart in Cornwall, and it’s safe my say that my whole heart is now there!! ❤️

I’m feeling refreshed and looking forward to a busy rest of summer head, all beach shoots of course 😍

I adore the energy that siblings bring. The key is to keep that energy flowing throughout the session. I guide kids so naturally they don’t even realise I’m positioning them, allowing me to capture the real magic in the in between moments… just like the next frames ✨

For years I thought opening a studio was the dream I was working towards. I came so close to taking on spaces, at the start of covid, just as I found out I was pregnant and then again at the end of last year. The timing never aligned.

I truly believe everything happens for a reason and I now know that a studio was not the right path for me. But the beach? This is where it’s all clicked.

Since niching into beach photography, I’ve never felt more aligned, fulfilled or happy in my work.

To mix my happy place with a business I’ve built over 13 years… this is the dream. 🤍
