This photoshoot was taken at the family home in early Autumn.  I’m always nervous before a photoshoot, will the clothing work, how is the light, what is my background, but I’m never really nervous about the kids.  I haven’t had a session yet when I haven’t been able to work with the children.  For me my first task it to create a connection with them, so that they relax and I can direct them while still having some fun. Matt & Laura’s kids were an absolute delight, the clothing was perfect and their were several options around the house to shot from. To View More >>

This is a wedding I will fondly remember as all about love and family. Not only did Jules and Adam have a two gorgous children of their own but it was also their family on both sides that was extremely important to them.  Every part of their day and ceremony had consideration and inclusion to make sure that their weeking represented just that - family. For me the day that was about them and their love but also acknowledges the importance of their family.  To View More >>

I have to confess to being a Mum who has occasionally taken her kids to school with her PJ's under her trackies. (“Mum, don’t you dare get out of the car!”)  One morning I woke up feeling slightly on the wrong side of the wonderful and I donned my less than vogue PJs/Trackie pants outfit to drop off the kids. As I arrived home I decided that a mood change was required and the morning was too beautiful to be wasted, so I grabbed my camera and my hairy children (the dogs) and off to lake we went. (Isn’t it great that your pets don’t care about bad hair and PJs!)  To View More >>

I often take snaps of my children but don't often take time out of my busy life to take those special images that will go into albums, be sent to grandparents and go on my walls.   Inspiration comes at all sorts of times, but for my somewhat impromptu family shoot, the location and the bed formed into a plan while I was on a run.  The bed was outside someone’s house with a sign "take me" and that’s what I did - well with my husband, Dale.  He did think it was a bit odd when I told him I wanted to take it down to the lake. It was the end of summer, golden hour, so beautiful To View More >>
