Hampstead Heath Family Photography | At home session in Belsize Park
On a lovely sunny but cold Saturday morning back in March, I took the train to London Victoria to do a Slice Of Life session with Hamish and his family in Belsize Park.

Family photoshoot with the grandparents | Ivy and opa at the beach

Brighton Baby Photography | A Newborn shoot in Preston Park
Newborn photography sessions are always exciting but, when it’s a shoot for people you’ve photographed before, it just makes it all extra special! Serin’s baby photo shoot was originally planned for when she was just a couple of weeks old, but unfortunately this had to be postponed because the poor little girl wasn’t well and…
Brighton Wedding Photography | Documenting Jelmer & Cedric’s special day
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I documented Jelmer and Cedric’s wedding! Wait, what?! Do you also photograph weddings? Well, yes and no.

First Birthday Photoshoot London | Reportage Family Photography
I feel so lucky that I still have so many lovely clients in London. I love living in Hove, but it is nice sometimes to travel to The Big Smoke to photograph families that you know and look forward to photographing again. Most of these families live in South East London, and at the end of last year…
How to do a maternity shoot at home | a step-by-step guide
Something slightly different on the blog today. I’ve created a step-by-step guide for documentary family photographers who are not yet, but might be toying with the idea of, adding documentary maternity photo sessions to their portfolio…
Brighton Family Photo Shoot | Discovering The Lanes with Isabella
Kicking of the first blog of 2024 with a lovely family photo shoot I did for Isabella and her parents. They live all the way in Hong Kong, but were in the UK over the holidays to visit family in Hove and wanted some natural, unposed family portraits of their stay. We picked a cold but lovely sunny day in December and decided to go and explore…
