I have photographed families in some stunning locations over the last decade, and after all this time I still feel my heart beating a little stronger in one particular location … your own home! Your sacred space that comforts you during sleepless nights, where the sunrise peeks through curtains as you cuddle in bed, the nursery that holds all the little storybooks you dreamed of reading together while babe was still cosy in your womb, and the sofa where you all crash after days spent trying to fill life with as much magic as possible. You and your baby will likely feel more at ease in the warmth and safety of your own home, and you can simply cuddle together while I capture all the breathtaking emotion of your new bond. Older children love having a visitor with a camera show up at their house, and I delight in capturing all the smiles whilst they show off their favourite toys and the latest skill they’ve acquired! There’s always time for quiet portraits too, to capture that soulful look in their eyes, and a tender moment between parent and child.

I also love capturing family stories in the wild outdoors! Tell me your favourite beauty spot that holds special memories for your family, or I can offer some location ideas x

I’m a big believer in wearing what makes you feel cute and comfortable. That being said, there are a couple of pointers that help to avoid your photos looking out-of-date quickly! I suggest choosing mum’s outfit first and then styling the rest of the family’s clothing around that. My session guide gives some ideas of colours and textures that look beautiful in photos x

The beauty of an in-home session is that it can take place any time of day. I work with natural light to capture you and your family beautifully. If you would like an outdoor session, I recommend meeting an hour before sunset and hopefully we’ll find some gorgeous golden light to bask in!
