Gorgeous newborn boy joy {London Newborn Photographer}

I was absolutely ecstatic when Paula asked me to photograph her newborn baby boy. I simply love photographing newborns - I feel blessed to capture this time for parents as it goes by so quickly :)

Baby K was born prematurely, which meant he was tiny and still very sleepy...although he was already almost 4 weeks old by the time we had our session. He patiently allowed us to pose and play with him during the session without making a sound....the perfect newborn model! I was extremely happy with the day as I also got to use my new baby props - a baby hammock and pod directly from the USA - both gifts from Paula on the day.

Thank you again Paula and I hope you enjoy your sneak peak...

Richmond Park Introduction {London Portrait Photographer}

When Shannon suggested Richmond Park as venue for her winning portrait session (competition featured on our Facebook page), I was none the wiser of where she was referring to. Yes, I have to admit, I must be the last photographer in London to not have discovered this gem of a location. This, coupled with the perfect weather, made the day one of those "ideal-wish-everyone-was-like-this-one" sessions.

Even though the drive there took me much longer than expected, the moment I met the family I knew the day would be perfect. It is always fantastic to meet clients you get along with instantly and we surely did! When I was invited for a tea and cake session at the lovely Pembroke Lodge afterwards, I gladly agreed :)

Thanks Shannon (and family) for the fab day (and cake) - hope you enjoy your sneak peak...

Boudoir session love {London Boudoir Photographer}

Ok - so I have been looking forward to this shoot for a while. I mean...what is not to look forward to? 3 Fun girls, a fabulous venue and some Boudoir-amazing props, outfits and a fab make-up artist....and voila!


I am slowly but surely falling in love with Boudoir sessions and love everything about them. It empowers women and are so much fun to plan and do! You might be seeing more of these soon....


Here are a few sneak peaks of the session, more to follow within the next week. Enjoy! :)

Wimbledon park fun {London Portrait Photographer}

You have no idea how much I looked forward to sharing the images of this shoot with you! Our shoot took place in a park near the home of the family in Wimbledon, London. 

The day started out with rain warnings, but the sky miraculously cleared for the exact amount of time we needed to get the shots. The family was so adorable - they played along to all the ideas I had (even the wacky ones) without questioning my sanity. :) 

This was also the first day I was joined by my new assistant/old friend, Deovonne. She rocked my reflector and made my life so much easier...it made me wonder how have I ever done it without her?

Here are some of my favourites taken on the day:

Welcome baby M - {London Newborn Photographer}

I absolutely love to photograph newborns! There is nothing quite as beautiful as meeting a brand-new human being, still untainted by the world and it's ways... (do I sound cynical?)

Meet sweet baby Michaela! She was super quiet and calm during her session at her home in South London, Wimbledon, and patiently waited for me to photograph her. I usually prefer to photograph newborns within the first 10 days when they are still sleepy and flexible for those cute newborn photographs, but baby M played along fabulously and we got a few precious images for her proud parents.

Here are a few of my favourites:

Meet stunning lady M! {London Maternity Photographer}

It has been a busy easter weekend for me so far! I had to catch up on a few sessions, but have to say that I loved doing them all.


I had the pleasure of photographing gorgeous lady M for her pregnancy session at her home in Wimbledon a few weeks ago. I loved her home the second I walked in - it also had fabulous natural light streaming through the windows and I could simply not get over her vintage leather sofa! I am in LOVE with this sofa!


Here are some of my favourites of the day...

Thanks M for a great session!

Love at Waterloo {London Engagement Photographer}

I have to start this blog by apologising for my absence the past few weeks... It has been a hectic few weeks where I had to catch up with all my editing and shoots, but I am glad to report I am finally back on track and will try to blog more regularly from now on :)

I wanted to share a teaser of what I have been busy working on this past two weeks with everybody... Go to my website to see the rest of the images taken at this shoot. I had the pleasure of shooting an amazing couple at Waterloo a while ago and suggested a graffiti backdrop for an urban love theme. They kindly agreed to play along and I am extremely happy with the results! And seriously...how photogenic are they?


Thanks L and D for making my job so easy!
