🌿 Before You Book

Answers to the questions you didn’t know you had… yet.

From nervous first-timers to seasoned memory-makers, this is where curiosity meets clarity — with warmth, honesty, and heart.

Whether you’re here to mark a milestone, celebrate your family’s bond (fur or human), or step into a little bit of everyday magic — you deserve to know exactly what to expect.

Here are some of the most asked, most felt questions — and the answers that just might make you say, “Yes, this feels right.”

❓What will the experience feel like?

Expect warmth, calm, and kindness. My sessions are never rushed, never cookie-cutter, and never about saying “cheese.”

Whether we’re in the studio or out in nature, the focus is always on you — your story, your pace, your people (or pup). For little ones and dogs, we let the magic unfold gently. For grown-ups, we hold space for confidence to grow and stories to emerge.

People often tell me they were nervous beforehand… and then surprised by how relaxed they felt.

❓What kind of photography do you offer now?

While I began my career in weddings, my heart now lies in portrait-led experiences. These include:

  • Pet & family pawtraits

  • First birthday celebrations (cake smash, bath splash, and gentle portraits)

  • Mother-daughter connection sessions

  • Wizard School experiences for imaginative children

  • Headshots for creatives and professionals

Each session is bespoke, thoughtful, and rooted in storytelling.

Do I need to be confident in front of the camera?

Not at all. Most of my clients aren’t.

But here’s the lovely thing: it’s not your job to be confident — it’s mine to help you feel at ease. Whether you’re booking for yourself, your child, or your beloved dog, I create space where you can relax, be yourself, and forget the camera is even there.

❓What makes your work different?

My clients often say, “This was more than just a photo shoot.” And that’s exactly what I aim for.

It’s about capturing who you really are — the relationships that matter, the in-between glances, the genuine emotion. I’m not here to stage your life. I’m here to honour it.

❓Will I see examples of your real work?

These aren’t styled shoots or stock moments. Every photograph on this website comes from real people, real stories, and real connections — captured with care, just as they unfolded.

If it feels personal, it’s because it was.

❓Are you qualified and insured?

Yes, absolutely. I’m an accredited and qualified member of several professional organisations, including:

I’m fully insured for public liability, professional indemnity, and employer’s liability. Your safety, trust and peace of mind are non-negotiable.

❓How far in advance should I book?

For signature sessions (like cake smashes and custom portraits), We’ll find the perfect date for you but I recommend getting in touch sooner rather than later so we can plan.

Some seasonal experiences do book out quickly — especially Wizard School — so if you’re even thinking about one, keep an eye on your e-mails and my socials so you can register your interest as soon as the dates are released.

❓Do you still photograph weddings?

While I no longer take on full-day wedding commissions, I do still love photographing small, heartfelt celebrations that need just a few hours of coverage.

If you’re planning an intimate ceremony, a quiet gathering with your closest people with meaning at its core — then I’d be honoured to capture it.

And if you’re looking for something bigger, I’m happy to recommend trusted colleagues who share my values and style.

Hello!

I guess you are reading this because you are planning your wedding, so huge congratulations and I hope you are having lots of fun planning your big day and I want to say thank you for having a look at my website. There are tons of photographers out there so it means a lot that you are having a browse at my work.

Where I Photograph

My wedding photography starts at £850.00 and I photograph weddings all over West Sussex, Kent, Surrey and East Sussex and the odd few in Essex too.

Why I Love Weddings

I am not a conveyor belt type of ‘gal’ so I limit the amount of weddings I photograph each year. Part of the magic of photographing weddings is to actually have a relationship with you, I like to offer you a bespoke service before, during and after your big day. I don’t want the most special day of your lives so far to be just another job, I want to photograph stories, your unique story. I want to laugh and cry with you as I think emotion needs to flow through the lens both ways for images to have that ‘je ne sais quoi.’

I love getting to know my couples before the big day; this makes such a difference to the images and helps with the emotionasl flow I just mentioned.  Chatting is where your day starts to take shape and the magic begins, the excitement builds and plans are made.  For you as a couple something happens…you are no longer afraid of being in front of the camera and on the day you will both be seasoned pros and looking beautiful darlings 🙂

My Style

So what’s your style I hear you say; well it’s an eclectic mix of classical portraiture, a good dollop of drama (I love a bit of drama), lots of quirky fun along with my documentary style, which is the glue to my stories. These are the elements that bring the story of your day alive to produce the timeless memories that will be forever your wedding day.

My Approach

I would love to meet with you to have a chat about your plans and I am loving that you are considering me as one of your potential photographers. We can have a good old chat over a cup of something and cake as I do think that wedding planning should always involve cake!! It will also be a good opportunity to look through lots of full wedding slideshows, wedding albums and printed work. Most important of all you will be able to ask me all the questions that are so vital when making such a big decision. Being fully informed will help you when making your final choice of photographer. I don’t just show you cherry picked images, you will see whole wedding stories. I photograph weddings all through the year so whatever time of year you are getting married there will be something to watch.

One last thing I don’t do the whole hard sell thing, so if you do get in touch don’t be afraid I will be on your back day and night as I won’t!!
