Why wedding photography?

After becoming a mum photography became my way of holding onto everyday life, which turned into a family photography business, then when the pandemic hit & small micro weddings were the only option for couples I started offering wedding photography, and it was an INSTANT love affair! Five years on and I’m obsessed!

I treat weddings like we’re already best mates - I’m the problem-solver, the extra pair of hands, the calming presence and the one who wants to make sure you have the best time at your wedding.

Whether it’s a multi-day celebration or a town hall elopement, being a part of a wedding day will always be the biggest honour and something I really cherish & am proud to call my job.

How would I describe what it’s like to have me photograph your wedding?

I’m not a fly-on-the-wall type, I think the best way to put you and your guests at ease is to integrate myself, but that said I don’t stage moments during the day - only a bit of guidance during portraits. I’m also passionate about photos not taking over the running of your wedding day - they should flow seamlessly into your timeline, be an amazing memory and represent you.

“I value presence and authenticity over the pursuit for perfection”


“She has such a gorgeous colourful style and captured the small and big moments absolutely perfectly!

Her eye for an interesting composition makes the photos even more incredible.
Throughout planning and on the day she was lovely, charming and put everyone at ease”

-Jessie

What inspires you

I love a good, cinematic series. House of Guinness was really good recently.

On a wedding day I’m inspired by the surroundings, the atmosphere and the vibe.

Biggest dancefloor jam

Teenage Dirtbag by Weezer, but I also can’t resist Fleetwood Mac.

Go to comfort food

I’m passionately veggie (trying to go vegan) so really good Italian food with friends is a core memory.

You also can’t beat a burger & chips.

Dream celeb client

I love Leon Bridges … his whole style is so well put together.

Or Olivia Dean - she’s incredible.
