It was so lovely meeting Tracey & Chris with their lovely kids for this shoot ☺️ Hatty and I will be shooting their wedding in Bath next year, which is sure to be filled with a LOT of giggles!! We can’t wait!

I have an awful phobia of these guys, but my little girl absolutely loves them. If they come anywhere near me, I scream, I throw things, I run, and sometimes depending if they made contact with my skin, I’ll cry 🫣 My little girl simply says ‘Oh, hello…’ then delicately scoops her little hands around them to pick them up, inspect/adore them, then calmly pop them outside somewhere safer than being anywhere near her out of control mother… I know I’m not alone at least 😂 however, today whilst watching this one spin it’s web on the kids slide, I decided to put my big girl pants on and use my zoom (NOT macro…!!), to capture the lil’ beast in its beautiful habitat. As much as they give me the creeps, I can’t help being in awe at these tiny masterminds… especially whilst watching them from the safety of the camera and my longest lens 😅

The Rivers Wye and Monnow have been struggling after a huge dumping of rain yesterday. I popped the drone up earlier today to take a birds-eye view of it. I hope everyone affected has managed to keep safe 🙏🏻

Meet my newest little buddy, Freddie! We walked and toddled all over the place this morning, picking up stones and feathers and enjoying the world as seen by new eyes; pure magic ✨ It was so special to catch up with his lovely parents too - I photographed their wedding 10 years ago, and Amy is one of my oldest friends from our own nursery days together 🥰

Loved working for a lovely new little business setting up in my hometown soon, providing them with lots of photos to help with their marketing. Paint and cocktails were involved… definitely my kind of job 🤩🙌🏻

I had such a fun afternoon with Marie and Lisa at Forrest Optical Styling Studio in Ledbury a couple of months ago, whilst shooting their new branding video! There were laughs aplenty amongst the GORGEOUS eyewear in the studio. It's definitely worth a pop in if you're in the area and need some new glasses to suit your own personal style...

I can’t believe it was 10 years ago that I had been in Crete, photographing Carrie & Karl’s stunning wedding by the beach… where does time go??!
Here they are now, not looking any different from then, with their gorgeous kiddies ☺️ It’s always so lovely seeing you guys, and capturing more moments for you to treasure!

We had such a lovely day photographing the wonderful Emmy & Henry on Saturday ♥️ I was obsessed with Emmy’s dress (almost as much as the horse was with her bouquet 😂)! Thank you for having us capture your day guys, it’s going to be a very lovely edit! ###

⭐️ I’m super excited to make a little announcement ⭐️
After shooting 200 weddings largely solo, I’ve decided to enlist this lovely lady, my very talented friend Hatty, to work alongside me at future UK weddings starting from now! This means that when you book me, you’ll now be getting TWO photographers at your wedding… why? Because…

• it’s extra security - if one of us becomes really poorly, or held up in a traffic jam etc, there is another photographer already booked for your day and ready to go 💪🏻
• you get more footage during the morning preps - one photographer each 🤩
• more crowd control during groups and an extra set of eyes to check all is well 👌🏻
• two different scenes or groups of people can be photographed at the same time 😁
• you’ll get more footage, more moments captured, and often from two different view points 🙌🏻

I will still be doing all the admin and editing as usual, but I’m so excited to have a buddy with me during wedding days to be my extra pair of eyes and ears ♥️

Hatty and I have worked together for years now, so I know I can fully trust her - she’s talented, friendly and can be super cheeky 😆 I just adore her, and think you will too!

If you have any questions or are interested to have us come and shoot your special day, please get in touch at [email protected], or pop me a message on here!

We’re shooting a wedding together this weekend, and can’t wait!

Last night I was asked to photograph the incredible Jay from Breathe. Balance. Be who is partnering with YOFI Paddlesports at Ye Old Ferrie Inn to offer SUP Yoga classes! Jay is my yoga instructor (on sturdy ground 😅), so I can already rave about her, but to see her teach on the water was a whole new level of ‘wow’! If you’re local to, or holidaying near Symonds Yat, check them out for more info coming soon 🤩

I just had some wonderful photos sent to me 🤩 10 years ago I was in Florence, shooting my very first international wedding… this week, the couple went back and took their little boy to celebrate! They swanned around the city all dressed up, including THE dress, trying to find the spots we went to for their photos to recreate them! Here are my photos alongside their retakes - I just love this so much 😍🙌🏻 A massive happy anniversary guys 🥹 I will ALWAYS remember your awesome day!!

…I’m still shooting international weddings by the way… 😉✈️

I love shooting close up in nature, but my gosh these ants just. don’t. stop. working!! Trying to get this guy in focus with such a shallow depth of field almost got me sweaty (in this balmy 12°C June we’re having… 👀😂). I was very pleased with an ant silhouette in the end 😅

I was asked to photograph the new photos for Whitecross Hereford High School’s website and marketing a few months ago, and am so excited to see it all in action after the website was made live today 😁 I’d never done a job like it, walking all over the school, interrupting lessons, interacting with staff and pupils to get the shots needed. It was so much fun, so diverse and a total joy to see so many young people thriving at this school 💪🏻 to see more, head to: https://www.whitecross.hereford.sch.uk
