Spring Wedding at The Alnwick Garden Northumberland

Spring Wedding at The Alnwick Garden Northumberland

Spring is on its way again! And it has reminded me of Tom & Beth’s beautiful spring wedding at The Alnwick Garden, Northumberland. It was a day filled with sunshine, prettiness, and so much love, laughter and emotion. The Pavillion was exquisitely dressed by The Event Dressers, with the personalised room and cake bunting created by […]

Waitrose Hexham Charity Fashion Show

I had a fun evening photographing Waitrose‘s annual charity fashion show in Hexham. The store was supporting local charity Chrysalis at Tynedale, which provides support, social events and activities for people suffering from memory problems and dementia in the area.

Jess & Mark decided to have their engagement shoot at Jesmond Dene as it is one of their favourite family places to visit.

Their little girl, who has just started walking, was sporting […]

Beach family fun – Northumberland children’s photographer

Beach family fun – Northumberland children’s photographer

“You must take lots of pictures of your children”. As a family and children’s photographer, I hear this statement quite a lot! And yes, I guess I do take lots of pictures of them, but sadly these days, it seems to be mainly on my phone. However, a family day out at Druridge Bay Country Park […]

Natural Maternity Photography

Natural Maternity Photography

One thing I wish I’d done when I was pregnant was to get professional maternity photographs taken of my bump. I know it’s not the same for a lot of women, but I absolutely LOVED being pregnant. Watching my body change with new life growing inside of me was a really awe-inspiring time. And whilst […]

Anniversary Family Portrait, Northumberland

Anniversary Family Portrait, Northumberland

I come from a family where all my siblings are dispersed around the country, so I love it when we all get together for a good old family knees up. This is usually for a big event like a special birthday, landmark anniversary or at Christmas. It’s always a privilege when I’m asked to shoot a family celebration, […]

A Midsummer Wedding at Shortflatt Tower

There were so many reasons why I was looking forward to photographing Kay & Craig’s wedding, not least because they are such a  lovely couple. When I first met them at Shortflatt Tower almost a year ago, I really clicked with their relaxed and informal approach to their plans, and I knew we were in […]

Family Portrait – Three Generations at Wallington, Northumberland

It seems a bit strange blogging about a winter shoot in the middle of May, but I’m in the process of catching up on all of my sessions, and the less-than-summery weather outside my window now, provided me with a gentle reminder… Back in January, I was invited to the beautiful Wallington National Trust property […]

Shortflatt Tower Styled Wedding Shoot

I love the buzz of working as part of a team, and I’d been thinking about a photographic collaboration for some time. A conversation with a friend, who just so happened to own a wedding dress boutique, was exactly the stimulus I needed to set up this themed wedding shoot. We brought together a team […]

Portrait of a post box – creative project

Earlier in the year I was set a photographic project that challenged me to find something that I felt drawn to within a 50m proximity of my location, to photograph it for 20 minutes, then to create a piece of art from the images. Fortunately I found my subject quite quickly – it was hard […]
