My approach

Many of the families I photograph, I first met at their wedding. And being the one still holding the camera as the family grows is the part of this work I treasure most. You don't need a history with me to start one, though: if you've found your way here for the first time, you're every bit as welcome.

Sessions are relaxed and low-key. No stiff lines, no "everyone look here and say cheese". I let kids be kids and parents be parents, and photograph the closeness as it really is: the squirming, the belly laughs, the cuddles, the lovely chaos of it. That's where the photographs you'll keep forever actually come from.

Enquire About Your Session

What I photograph

  • The slow, round-bellied months of waiting, the quiet before everything changes.

  • The first bewildering, beautiful weeks, photographed gently at home rather than posed in a studio. Real and tender, the way those days actually feel.

  • The people you love at the age they are right now. The ordinary Saturday mornings that turn out to be the ones you miss most.

Enquire About Your Session

She has such a calm, easy presence and an incredible eye for capturing real, beautiful moments.

“

During our newborn shoot, our son cried and cluster fed for what I'm sure was the entire session, and somehow she still managed to deliver the most stunning photos. I have no idea how she did it, but I’ll be forever grateful that she captured those precious early days so beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Maternity sessions are usually best between 29–34 weeks.
    Newborn sessions can take place within the first few weeks and up to 3 months old. Sweet spot usually around 6-8 weeks old.

  • No pressure at all. I’ll gently guide things and follow their lead and I always prepare time for feeding, comforting, and settling. The best photos usually come from the in-between moments, not perfect behaviour.

  • Newborn sessions are booked around your due date rather than a fixed day. Once your baby arrives, you simply let me know and we will confirm your session time accordingly. I always allow flexibility in my calendar for this reason.

  • Maternity sessions can take place outdoors in nature or at your home, depending on the feeling you are drawn to.

    Newborn sessions are usually held in the comfort of your home, where your baby and family feel most relaxed.

  • My approach is natural and connection-focused. I do not use elaborate props or heavily posed setups. Instead, I gently guide you while documenting real moments — holding, comforting, feeding, and connecting with your baby.

    This allows your photographs to feel timeless, emotional, and personal.

  • Absolutely. These sessions are about documenting your family connection, and loved ones are always welcome.

  • Simple, neutral tones work beautifully. I recommend avoiding big text and strong, neon colours. I’ll send a short guide after booking, and you’re always welcome to send me options if you’d like help.

  • If the weather isn’t suitable, we’ll reschedule to the next available date, no stress.

  • Your gallery will be delivered within 4 weeks.

  • Life can happen and I will try my best to accomodate this, however, sessions are timed to allow for travel between different shoots/ locations. If you arrive late, your session will be shortened accordingly, as I’m not able to extend or move other bookings.
