Happy Father's Day 💙

Today we're celebrating all the wonderful Dads, Stepdads, Grandads, Father Figures and the special bonds they share with their little ones.

It's such a privilege to capture these precious moments – the cuddles, the laughter and the love that shines through in every photograph.

We also know that today can be a difficult day for many. Whether you're remembering a Dad who is no longer here, longing to become a Dad, missing your children, or finding today bittersweet for any reason, we're thinking of you too ❤️

Wishing everyone a day filled with love, however you're spending it.

Happy Father's Day.

Here's a little look at some of the gorgeous dads and their babies I've had the pleasure of photographing 💙

📚 Back to School Mini Sessions 2026 – They're Back!!!

I first started these sessions in 2018 when my son began school, and they’ve become one of my absolute favourite yearly traditions 💛

I can’t wait to get started again – I love seeing how much the little ones have grown, welcoming new faces, and capturing these special milestones for you all.

These sessions (in my totally unbiased opinion!) are such a lovely way to document your child’s school journey – and I promise, you won’t regret having these memories to look back on!

🕒 10–15 minute sessions (+ extra time for vieiwng)
👧 Individual photos only (siblings welcome, booked in the same slot but priced separately)
💻 Prices from £25–£95
📦 Choose from prints, digital files & collage bundles
🎒 Personalised setups – props may vary, but the ruler image stays the same!
👉 £10 non-refundable booking fee (deducted from your final order)

Booking Link: https://book.usesession.com/s/ENYioW4oxE

If you have any questions please let me know, I'd love to hear from you and hopefully see you soon!

I've had quite a few people ask recently whether I'll be running my Back to School Mini Sessions this year... and the answer is YES! 🎒✨

I'm currently finalising dates and times and hope to have the booking link ready by the end of this week!

In the meantime, please help spread the word—especially to any families you know with children starting Reception this September! 📚🍎

I can't wait to welcome you all back for another year of Back to School photos! ✨

I’ve been a bit quiet on here lately… and honestly it’s because I get so caught up in doing what I love, I forget to share it 😅

Between sessions, editing late at night, mum life, and trying to keep on top of everything… social media always seems to fall to the bottom of the list 🙈

But behind the scenes, there’s been so many beautiful moments captured… the kind that make me stop and feel so grateful that this is my job 🥹

So I’m going to start sharing them properly again, because they deserve to be seen 🤍

Starting with this little cutie at her cake smash session… pure joy, messy hands, and the sweetest little personality shining through 🎂

Thank you so much to all of you who trust me with these memories… it honestly means more than I can say 💛

If you’ve been thinking about booking a session or capturing something special, my messages are always open — I’d love to chat whenever you’re ready 🤍
