Honest, documentary style photography for families and mothers in Dorset.
Unscripted, unposed, authentic, genuine moments.
Hi! Thank you for being here.
I am a documentary-style photographer, working in Bournemouth, Poole and surrounding Dorset. I specialise in capturing ‘real’ lives and honest photography for Motherhood, Newborn, Family and Personal/Creative branding.
Story telling is at the heart of my art, which specialises in human connectivity and emotive imagery. I am madly in love with documentary style photography and how capturing a moment exactly as it plays out in front of my camera results in capturing real - life connections. Photography for me is not about capturing a perfectly styles or posed image, It’s about the feeling. My photoshoots are relaxed, naturalistic and candid, with minimal direction. Resulting in meaningful, authentic, timeless images.
My hope is that you will look back on these images and find yourself there, exactly as you were, a moment in time.
