I am passionate about capturing this wonderful time in your lives by creating – beautiful natural photos of your baby. If you’re looking for a relaxed friendly environment whilst you sit and enjoy your newborn photoshoot, then you’ve come to the right place. As you look through my website you will quickly notice that I am inspired by the magic of childhood, children and babies, I think all children should be cherished.

NEWBORNS
Beautiful newborn photography is best undertaken at under 14 days new, you will not believe just how quickly your gorgeous little baby will change and my job is to safely record every precious little detail for you to look back on and cherish forever. Your baby is in safe hands, babies come first above anything else, making for a beautiful relaxed few hours where you can sit back and just take in this little marvel that you have created.


CHILD PORTFOLIO
I specialise purely in photographing families, and in particular children and babies. Photoshoots are fun and carefree meaning your child will feel relaxed and at ease being themselves, capturing their true personalities, quirks, smiles or pouty lips! Rather than feeling they have had a posed photo session, they feel they’ve had fun being themselves and playing. I offer studio portraits, styled photo sessions, outdoor shoots, fairy photoshoots, carousel horse and imagination sessions.
MATERNITY PORTFOLIO
I specialise in stunning outdoor maternity photoshoots usually at around 34-35 weeks although it can be before or after dependant on how comfortable you feel. Posing is always kind to ensure you look like you are glowing even if you’re not quite feeling it! I have a wide range of maternity gowns or you can bring your own outfit, as you can see I love outdoor pregnancy photography in a fine art style, I also can provide milk bath maternity sessions, studio pregnancy portraits can be taken if preferred.
