Photographing a 1940’s wedding – Maizie and Darren style
Here is a photo story about Maizie and Darren...about on this August day, after being together more than 10 years and having four completely stunning children (two boys, two girls) together, they chose to get married in true 1940's style. It was not only a day to celebrate their relationship and all that they've experienced together, it was a day where they embraced everyone they know and love in…
a day in the life of a classroom
I have a great relationship with the school my daughter attends. Regular updates on her progress, interactions with teachers and plenty of social occasions that enhance my picture of life through her eyes with the teachers she learns from and children she learns with. Of course many of us understand how our children connect and behave within their learning environment. BUT what really…
martha’s dancing heart
Martha was born on the 10th of January 2015, checking into this big and beautiful world a whole five weeks earlier than planned. It was an emotionally charged journey for mum and dad, Michelle and Rick leading up to her birth, with regular hospital visits until this gorgeous little lady was able to come home some weeks later.
Michelle and Rick, along with Martha's big brother Will have decided…
Magenta Change… “make each day your masterpiece”
Sue Revell got in touch with me as "a self-confessed hater of having my photo taken" but on the brink of launching her new website and brand, she accepted the inevitable that this couldn't be avoided any longer. So this was the start of our honest and creative relationship together.
I have certainly found one of the most fanatical tennis addicts - that's watching or playing it - and she's also…
when mum and dad got married
Traditionally, a wedding day is about two people starting out in the world, but what is particularly lovely here is that this was a true family wedding, they all got married together.
The happy couple have had five children together and everyone had a starring role as bridesmaid, page boy, best boy and ring bearer. They got to watch their mum and dad get married in a sweetly simple almost…
we’re going on a bear hunt
The all time classic children's book, We're Going On A Bear Hunt by Michael Rosen was chanting through my mind as we tramped across fields and followed tracks lined with tall and thickly woven majestic trees. Brandishing a strong long plastic sword and armed with many snacks fit for a bear hunt, a young knight named Griff led us deep in to the forest in search of his bear friend. His faithful…

Kirsten and Laurence
Last weekend I walked away after a photo shoot realising I had experienced something very real and special. It's quite rare to get the opportunity to photograph a couple simply to celebrate who they are. We all lead such busy everyday lives and in the main, our relationships all too often are given a back seat.
As far as couples go, Kirsten and Laurence are naturally and visually connected. But…

A week with Bethan
Bethan chose to spend her year 12 school work placement with me. She is clever and talented with a passion to learn everything she can in this world, she's already wise beyond her 17 years. It was really great to have the opportunity to share a piece of my world. Here is Bethan's diary in her own words, along with a gallery below showing some of her photos during the week...I'm going to miss…
