Albums aka Art books are a vital part of storing the memories of your photoshoot, not only in style but in a format which will be a pleasure to look at even decades from now.

Today we made elderflower cordial. Yesterday we foraged and for 24 hours we left the elderflower in some sugar water & sliced limes (we had no lemons 🤷‍♀️) and today we made cordial! For a first attempt it's pretty good. I think it will be bloody lovely in a gin. I had to stop mid cordial making to do a super quick shoot because it looked insanely pretty! 😍

I'm now 100% into cordial making, so if you know any good flavours let me know below! I'll need to buy more bottles though!

Resuming in home pictures now 😊 This carousel of images is from my last newborn shoot pre-lockdown. I've a few photography plans/ventures up my sleeve (stay tuned!) but for now I still love sharing these in-home sessions because I love 'em and I wanna! Also a quick thank you to all new enquiries I've recently recieved, its such a boost after a quiet few months - and to know that people are making plans for future shoots mean there is light at the end of the tunnel!
So, in other news, we recently got a 3-in-1 micro scooter for Eli. It's so sweet. It has a little seat until he's big enough for regular scootin'. We've been enjoying our warm day walks - but I'd love advice on how to keep a summer hat on a toddler?! It's not easy.

I'm finishing up my Doorstep shoots this weekend, I'm going to a really cool property for one shoot - I'll share when I have done it. I'll give you a clue: It's very Art Deco and its West London 🤓

So, doorstep portraits. I've been a little on the fence about doorstep portraits to be honest - and now here I am taking doorstep portraits 🙈

After the restrictions for only one walk a day were lifted I decided it would be nice to get on my bike and capture some families local to me. It's not something I'm going to do much of - I have one more set of Chiswick Portraits coming up, and a few Ealing way and then I will stop. But it felt wonderful to take pictures again!
All they are really is a quick hello, a 10 minute session - then I'm on my way. Which is why I'm donating all the money to my local hospital. I'm excited and proud to raise money doing something I love 😊. Also I get to explore little parts of my local area I didn't know existed!

I know doorstep portraits have been a little controversial but I'm hoping these images will be treasured and appreciated by those that came and stood on their doorsteps for me! Here is a little sneak peak of one family from this weekend 🏠

Hiya 👋 happy Friday! I'm super excited because I've decided it is pizza night. I said no last friday because I'm trying to be healthy but I've worked out a bunch this week (twice 🤣) so I'M DOING IT.
Sharing this post from a shoot last Autumn because I love, love, love this photograph. I love capturing honest moments and real connections. Which is why I *hope* clients choose to book with me. I come to your home and capture a mix of documentary and posed images of you and your favourite people. And when I say posed, it's a bit of guiding and usually telling you what to do with your hands 🤣

I know now is not the ideal time to book an in-home family shoot because its tricky to absolutely pinpoint when we can have it, but if you want one in the future consider booking now for an open date 💕 I'll then work with you, once we have to go ahead, to capture those you've been with and without during these past few months. DM me for my Welcome Guide 😊

I am struggling a little with how to be present here on Instagram right now. I've had a few messages actually from people checking on my because I've been so quiet 😅 I'm totally fine - thank you! Just not sure what to post, what to say, if I'm coming across to salesy right now but also wanting to keep my business strong. It's tough! And my fridge/freezer is still broken 😔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm sure it'll pass! So for now I'm going to share a lovely 6 week baby and Dad shot! I meet the nicest Dads on my shoots and I never really talk much about them! So shout out to all the fabulous Dads I've photographed - the way the cheer on their partners in the shoot, act as my assistant holding up plants (if you know, you know!) making coffees, offering snacks and changing babies, you're great! Hopefully it won't be long until I'm back capturing you all with your favourite people 💕

Ooops I've been a little MIA on here lately. It's tough to keep posting things when you have no idea when business will return to normal. I can't even begin to explain how grateful I am for my current clients that are still happy to postpone rather than cancel 💕 Its really sad to not be capturing these fleeting bump and newborn moments, I I miss it so much - and I feel for all those parents out there that desperately what these moments recorded. Let's try be positive, see what Boris has to say tonight. I'm hoping we're getting close now 🤞 Photographers friends - hopefully not much longer! I know that I have chatted to a few of you that feel the same.

Also my fridge freezer broke 🤦‍♀️ Positives though, got a new print order, bought a few fun photography things and might get a kinder bueno 👍🏻
