Current favourite sleep suit - it’s safe to say that this is washed, dried and then worn again the next day. Just hoping that this little pickle doesn’t have a blow out whilst wearing it 🤭

Imagine being 11 weeks old and rocking the softest, gentlest sleep-suit there is 🥰 The print totally suits Orlas little personality and we are obsessed with how lush they are.

The two way zip is a game changer 💃

10 weeks tomorrow of our little Orla ❤️ 10 weeks of this shining light and absolute dream babe. It hasn’t been easy on me, and I don’t think it will be for a while but this ray of sunshine is making everything brighter ☀️

It’s so easy to pretend everything is ok and “just get on with it” but it’s so important to talk about postpartum depression and seek help if you need it ❤️

Little bits of creativity is definitely helping focus my brain 🤗

Oh hey 👋

Can we just talk about how it’s August already which means it’s coming up to a year since Adam and Claire got married? How did that year whizz by?

I may be rocking a newborn to sleep with a toddler at my ankles, but I’m still here and answering enquiries ❤️

If you are looking at booking me for your 2026 or 2027 wedding then get your organising hat on and pop an enquiry through to get your zoom call booked in 💃

Super excited to talk all things wedding with you… and cake. Because cake is life right now 🥰

Raw & honest motherhood post - 20 days. 20 days since birthing this queen. 20 days it’s taken for me to have the mental capacity to pick up my camera.

It’s been hard this time. Mental health wise, we aren’t as healthy as we’d like to be but I’ve got this 💃 I know it’s because I’ve had a tough time postnatally with having to be in and out of hospital for high blood pressure but I also feel like I have a constant panic head at the moment.

One thing that brings me joy is thinking about Orlas birth which was so blooming beautiful. I’d been contracting for a good week and on the Friday, I just couldn’t do it anymore. I was able to be put on the wait list to have my waters broken. We got the call at 18:00 to go into the delivery suite. I was grateful because it meant I’d most likely be birthing overnight and avoiding the 30 degree heat. My waters were broken around 19:45 (I think) and I was left to it. The midwife got everything ready as she was convinced it was going to be a quick labour. Unfortunately, Orla decided to move position 🫠 As her position didn’t allow for her to move down the birth canal, it meant everything took longer! An epidural was required at around 2am, and the midwife let me rest then did some biomechanics (to encourage baby to move).
During the second biomechanics position, I knew baby had moved and I could feel so much pressure. There was still 6 hours before they’d examine me again. I swore. I shouted for the gas and air and just focused on my breathing. They examined me and baby was ready to arrive. I shut off outside voices and got lost in the gas and air. I breathed out baby’s head, maybe a little push and then laughed/pushed the rest of baby out. I’m desperate to remember what we were laughing about! There’s so many other parts that I haven’t written but as much as it was painful and physically draining, it was also so incredible and powerful.

Women are amazing.

Anyway, meet Orla Stevie Bailey. 20 days new. Our “baby sister” or “fluffy”.

The photographer? Me although a 20 day postpartum, hormonal and anxiety ridden me.

I had all the intentions of posting a pro photo of her but hey, its only day 3 🤭

Luna is obsessed and already being an incredible, empathetic and beautiful big sister (with some struggles which is understandable) and Guy is now officially outnumbered ☺️

I’ll be taking some time out to enjoy the newborn snugs and figure out this new chapter.

Love you all, Jess xx

24/5. A true beaut of a day. I’ve been trying to put into words how blown away I was by the styling of yesterday’s wedding and quite frankly, I just cant. Words don’t do it justice… but I guess that’s where the photos come into play, right?

Its safe to say that family sessions are becoming a true favourite of mine. They are child led, super relaxed and all about capturing personalities.

Yes, we will do a few posed images but it’s so important to me to capture memories of you as YOU. I’m truly in love with this most recent session with this gorgeous family. Perhaps it’s because they capture them in their own little world and every smile you see is because of pure joy.

Did the kids end up in the water during this session? Yes, yes they did 🤭

I have a few sessions available before my family expands so if you are looking for a child led, relaxed family photoshoot then get in touch.
