The morning light is just so beautiful and soft. The Lappeman’s were out on a business trip and wanted a fun family shoot with their little girl. The light and the love just made it, don’t you agree? You have a beautiful family and it was so great to meet you all xxIMG_9791 IMG_9822 IMG_9866 IMG_9883 IMG_9894 IMG_9934 IMG_9936 IMG_9946 IMG_9955 IMG_9968 IMG_9985 IMG_0019 IMG_0023 IMG_0046_1 IMG_0061 IMG_0078 IMG_0105 IMG_0159 IMG_0272 IMG_0303 IMG_0339 IMG_0456 IMG_0482 IMG_0487

Tom and Jen are undoubtedly a gorgeous couple, so much so that they were featured on the cover of a magazine. I may be a bit biased though, as Jen is my sister, after all. Love you guys, you are amazing together and even though it’s going to be tough, we are all rooting for you, you guys rock! So much love xxxIMG_5383 IMG_5365 IMG_5351 IMG_5340 IMG_5328 IMG_5322 IMG_5298 IMG_5294 IMG_5288 IMG_5233 IMG_5142 IMG_5131 IMG_5084 IMG_5021 IMG_4992 IMG_4984 IMG_4973 IMG_4959

It’s a food and beverage online magazine that I have always admired, their content is top class and I feel so privileged to be involved. Food photography is something that I really love, take a look at the latest issue which has a little write up on me and a restaurant feature!

It was a beautiful misty morning as you would expect which held out the whole day for us. It was such a beautiful, relaxed wedding full of laughter and and love.

I photographed this beautiful little family in Sheffield beach whilst they were there for the Christmas holidays. Such a chilled little guy, congrats Dave and Cands and welcome to the world little Luke. Here are some of my favourite images from our shoot.

I photographed the Long family in the build up of a huge storm a couple Sundays ago, so they had to endure wind and rain and still look beautiful and happy.  I am so chuffed with how well the images came out – proof that a bit of rain won’t kill you. Well done guys, you rocked it! xx

The light was amazing, everyone was relaxed and we had a lot of fun, (doesn’t hurt that the subjects were so damn pretty too.. hehe). Can’t wait to meet this little one in a few weeks time, watch this space … and good luck Nix and Andy!!!

I am pleased to introduce little Mr Noah Tyler – this adorable little man’s shoot was done at under a week after he was born.  He has the cutest long little fingers and unbelievable strength and attention/ awareness for a week old baby (holds his head up on his own and looks right at you)  but those lips of his – wow, he is definitely going to be a heart breaker. Congrats to Natalie and Nick, well done on creating this little cutie pops! xx

They live in such a beautiful home and it’s opposite the local Yacht Club which adds to the grandeur. The family are like peas in a pod, they all get on so well and genuinely enjoy each other’s company which I hope comes through in these images.

This is part 4 of my styled “urban fashion” series … I love the bow-tie accessory and the soft feeling of the all denim look. I chose these shots because I like the obvious way the model is interacting with the camera and the interesting shapes she makes with the poses.
