I had the joy of meeting this lil guy on Saturday.. only two days after he came into this world! What a very special privilege to meet him and photograph him at this precious time in his life. And I can tell he’s going to be a lil heart breaker.. he’s already stolen our hearts!

I still have to blog his mommy’s gorgeous mommy-to-be shoot images, so look out for those in due course, but in the meantime here’s my favourites from Saturday.. Feel free to leave comments if you like. Friend and family, please ask his parents for the password to the online gallery or get in touch with us here at the studio.

I can’t wait to photograph him again once he’s a few weeks older (and hopefully a little less sleepy..  after all it’s hard work being so lil and having to meet everyone for the first time!) :-)

A very big thank you to his mommy and daddy for sharing him with me so soon! xx





In late March, about a month before their wedding in South Africa, we did some pre-wedding portraits for Brian and Lesley in Pembroke Lodge. Their son Ciaran joined them so of course it was the perfect opportunity to also get some family portraits for them. The grounds around Pembroke Lodge in Richmond Park is perfect for a relaxed walk and giggle. Here’s a couple of my favourites from the session.

We did the lovely Sam and Jenny’s pre-wedding shoot along the embankment after work on evening during the last week of March.. with only a week to go till their wedding, the weather was fine but freezing and it wasn’t long before the spring rain come down. I promised them this was a great trade off.. rain and the freezing cold for their pre-wedding shoot vs. sunshine on their wedding day? It seems to work, because they had the most brilliant spring wedding day in early April (more about that to come soon!). Here’s a few of my favourites from the shoot.

Oh ps. Sam suprised Jenny on the morning of their wedding with prints of his favourites of them together on the shoot. How cute!! Of course she loved them.. and I loved being in on the suprise :)





We had so much fun with these two gorgous people a couple of weeks ago doing  their pre-wedding London portraits. They’re getting married next weekend in Cape Town and I’ve been bursting with excitement to post these at least before then.. More to come soon I promise, but here’s a few sneak preview images in the meantime.

Feel free to leave a comment if you like them.





Mark from Creative Film & Photography and I had a fun Saturday morning doing these pre-wedding portraits in the gardens at Pembroke Lodge, Richmond Park. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding at Tala Game Reserve near Durban in South Africa at the end of April. Just sooooo excited!

Here’s a sneaky-peak image from the shoot.. more images coming soon!_MG_9739





Isn’t this lil girl just too cute for words.. I had the privilege of photographing her and her Yummy Mummy last week and couldn’t wait to introduce her to  you:

Rob and Hailz, many congratulations on your beautiful little girl! x





I had the privilege of photographing this lil guy when he was only a couple of weeks old. It was brilliant photographing Jessie and Michael again and seeing how much their lives had changed in the last year – they’d gone from being an excited and amazing couple on their wedding day at Beauberry House to being loving and doting parents. They absolutely adore their GraphiStudio WeddingBook so for this session we’ve done a special GraphiStudio Portrait Book and I love it – it shows so many of Shawn’s expressions!

Below are some of my favourite images from their family portrait session. Friends and family can view all the images on the online gallery. Please ask Michael or Jessie for the password or get in contact with me.

I think the image above and the one below (which is my favourite favourites from the portrait session) must be any new moms favourite – when their little one is blissfully asleep! :-)

Micheal & Jessie, congratulations on your wonderful addition to the family! xx





Back in May I had a fun afternoon at the British museum with Ceri and Becky and loved getting to know these two a bit better before their wedding in Cardiff at the end of July (which was an amazing day – look out for the blog post coming soon)

Here’s just a few of my favourites from the shoot:

I’m the lucky girl who will be photographing Rod & Eleanor’s wedding in April next year and a couple of weekends ago we had a lot of fun photographing their pre-wedding portraits in Wimbledon Common. It was a fresh morning, but so lovely to be out and it was so cute to see these two together..

Congratulations on your engagement you two. I’m counting sleeps with you until April! x





The lovely Christian and Cristina recently joined me for a walk in Regent’s Park to photograph and get to know them a bit better before their big wedding in September. We had a lot of laughs and I’m so excited about their wedding! Can’t wait.. counting sleeps with you two..
