Lavender Mini Sessions – Banstead, Surrey

This year I will be running my super popular lavender mini sessions again at Mayfield Lavender in Banstead. These sessions always sell out really quickly, probably because the lavender backdrop really does make for such a pretty one! This is one of my favourite mini sessions of the year. The lavender makes a perfect backdrop for all photos and children especially find it so much fun being able to explore the lavender fields, most like to run along the pathways and this always makes for a great photo.

The sessions are 25 minutes long and included in your package are 4 beautiful images of your choice. There is the option to upgrade your package to include all the images or purchase individual extras. I am running these sessions July 24th and another date will be added soon due to such high demand.

To book a session or find out more information please send me an email and I look forward to hearing from you.

Family photoshoot – Esher, Surrey

This family photo shoot was for a 70th birthday, so it was a pretty special one and I felt very honoured to have been chosen to take ‘the family portrait’ for this amazing birthday gift. They were such a lovely family and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them all that morning. We were able to get some really lovely photos, especially of the children.

Neonatal Photoshoots – Kingston Hospital, Surrey

After having Jaxon I remember coming home and looking back over all of the many photos I had taken of him on my phone and I thought to myself how I wish I had taken in my camera to capture some of Jaxon’s time on the unit when he was so tiny. When you are there on the neonatal unit, taking photos is the last thing on your mind really and you almost don’t want to have lots of photos of such a challenging time in your life however it’s not until you arrive back home that you think how nice it would have been to of had some precious moments of you and your baby in those early days to allow you to look back on just how tiny, perfect and amazing they were.

Newborn Photoshoot – Chessington, Surrey.

Looking back over the photos from this lovely families newborn photoshoot that I did March 2018 in Chessington, Surrey.

I loved capturing precious first family moments for this family who I was connected with through knowing the wonderful Pauline Woods from the charity Born too Soon. This little man was super cute and was the perfect model for his photos that day.

Jaxon is turning TWO – West Molesey, Surrey

This weekend we had a little party at Sandown Play Cafe in Esher, Surrey to celebrate Jaxon’s 2nd birthday. He will be officially 2 on Wednesday and I can’t believe it has been 2 years since we welcomed (rather unexpectedly) our tiny baby boy into the world. Jaxon was 12 weeks early and weighed 2lb 2oz, he spent a very long 10 weeks at Kingston neonatal unit with a wonderful team of doctors and nurses caring for him.
