    A Spectacular Golden Hour Newborn and Family Photoshoot

    L reached out to me for a newborn shoot after being recommended by her friend. The world was just starting to open up after the intense first phase of the lockdown, which meant the usual at home indoor newborn shoot wasn’t going to be feasible. We waited until M was 5 weeks old and groups of up to 6 people were allowed to meet at a distance outside, and then we created this marvellous outdoor newborn shoot with all 4 of their perfect little family, in a spectacular golden hou

    Do we really need an album?

    With the ease of displaying and preserving digital images, I'm sure the majority of engaged couples question at some point: Do we really need an album? So, I'm just going to come out and say it: No, you don't. You don't need your images printed into a book to remember your day, or to enjoy the photos.

    How To: Create a Stand-Out Wedding that Supports Craftspeople and Indie Business at No Extra Cost

    This week is the #justacard campaign. The idea is to promote all the small little people and save the independent artists, boutiques and inevitably the creative high street. Essentially, every time someone buys even just a card, or a pin, or anything at all, that person does a little happy dance and gets a glow feeling, and it directly helps them to support their own families - to clothe them and put food on the table. And, as you know, I'm all about running a business ethica

    How to: An Ethical Wedding

    So, when I was preparing for my own wedding I started thinking - how could we do this more ethically? The very nature of a wedding being a one day event, and in many cases an extravaganza of guests and details and expense means that inevitably there are waste issues, or worries about whether certain things are "worth it."
