Time and time again, one of the things I love most about being a photographer is seeing families & children grow and develop. A couple of years ago i photographed Stacey & Stephens wedding at the incredible Rufford Mill. Recently, they got in touch to say they now had a gorgeous little boy and [...]
As regular followers of this blog will know, I tend to spend most of my time photographing young families and children. When I received an email asking if I would be available to photograph a party organised to celebrate 60 years of marriage I was super excited! It was going to be a big [...]
Choosing the perfect location for your photoshoot can be a challenge - that place that IS you, where the kids can be themselves. One option is a photoshoot around your home. It's an ideal location when you have very young children as everything is 'on hand', and it often adds that extra personal touch [...]
It's always a pleasure to photograph siblings. As much as they can often pretend to not really like each other, deep down there's a connection like no other! Most of my sessions take place in the evening time, but for this session, we had to aim for mid morning so decided to head to [...]

It was back in December when I shot this session with the adorable R. His Mum had asked if she's be able to use some of the images as Christmas gifts so I thought i'd best wait until the new year before sharing (photographs make great Christmas gifts by the way!). We decided to [...]
Quite simply, if I *had* to choose a single time of year to shoot family portraits it would be Autumn. I just love how the colours look so alive, the richness of the sunlight and the fact the cooler weather means you can wear lots of lovely textures. For this session, we decided to [...]
For a family photoshoot that involves children of varying ages, there's no better location than some of the glorious woodlands and forests around Mansfield and Nottinghamshire! Whilst forests make great locations all year around, it's never more so the case than at Autumn. The sea of colours is incredible and the crunchy leaves are [...]

We're truly blessed to have such a great variety, and so much of it is easily accessible 24/7. For this extended family session we headed into a local [...]
