This has been the most wonderful year of family photography and I’m really excited to share some images with you. I’ve always loved keeping family photography alongside my wedding photography over the past decade. I’m now only taking on a very small number of weddings each year, so that I can really develop the family…
I loved this newborn photo session with this family at home in Devon. I photographed Craig and Sarah’s older son Reuben when he was a baby, so it was particularly special to return for a session with Jacob at the same age. It’s always really wonderful to catch up with families I have photographed before….
I recently had the pleasure of capturing this family photography session at Saunton Sands in Devon. The session took place in the morning, which turned out to be a great choice. It felt like we had the entire beach to ourselves at times, which meant everyone could properly relax and enjoy themselves. We had such a fun…
I have been looking forward to sharing some images from this evening family photography session at the beach. It was just about as close to perfect as it gets! We had such gorgeous weather, and it was an absolute delight to photograph the family on holiday at Hope Cove in Devon. There was even a…
What should we wear for our family photography session? It’s one of the questions I get asked all the time, and I thought it was worth writing a separate post about. I want the whole family photography experience to be really enjoyable for you. Your clothing is a really important part of your planning. The…
So how does a newborn photography session at home work? What should you expect? Do you need to do anything to prepare? I hope this will answer everything that you need to know about your newborn photography. I always photograph newborns in the comfort of your own home. The aim of the session is to…
I’ve been photographing families on location in Devon for over a decade, so I’ve got a very good idea of the best beaches for family photography. The South West is such a beautiful area. There are so many amazing beaches, as well as the moors, forests and general countryside, and it provides so many options…
All the laughter, all the warmth and cuddles, all the love! This year of family photography has been an absolute whirlwind of joy, and the hugest pleasure to share. I’m such a huge believer in creating family photographs, as I know how ridiculously quickly these days pass. It’s just so important to grab the moment…
Ah I just loved this family photography session in North Devon. I’ve been looking forward to sharing some of the images for ages! Amy is a wonderful family photographer herself, but wanted to be in the photos along with her own family during their Devon holiday. Photographing other photographers is always a bit of a…
Can pets be in our family photos? Should we bring our family dog to the photography session? It’s a solid yes from me! Your pets are part of the family, so I’m up for making them part of the shoot. I’m not saying it’s going to be straightforward, but that’s half the fun. If we…
2021 has been the most incredible year of family photography. It has been a year where families have really appreciated the opportunity to be together. In some cases, after a period of not being able to do this. It has felt even more important to photograph these times when they happen. I’ve photographed families all…
Having your family photo session at home is one of the best decisions ever. Most importantly, you get images of your family in your own familiar spaces, doing the things that you all normally do. All those every day moments that you usually hardly notice. The little cuddles on the sofa, the tickles in the…
Where should we have our family shoot in Devon? So, you are thinking about booking your family photography in Devon. Wonderful! But which location should you choose for your own shoot? Where are the best places for family photos in Devon? How much does the location matter? These are usually some of the first questions…
I always really love putting together a selection of my best Devon family photography images from the year. I think it’s safe to say that 2020 has been one that none of us will forget in a hurry. However, despite all the difficulty, there have been so many good things about this year. I’ve…
One of the best bits about being based in Devon, is how often I get to carry out family photography at the beach! When I am crunching around on the rocks or sand, with the sea splashing in the background, it never feels properly like I’m actually working. And the beach can make the most…
I’m so excited to share some images from this recent evening family photography session. Laura is a brilliant photographer herself, so it was flattering to be asked to photograph her family. There is always a level of extra pressure creating images for another photographer! However, it did also mean that we were on the same…
I photograph families across the South West, and wanted to share with you this lovely Somerset family photography session. It was such a pleasure to head up to North Curry and photograph the Langston family. Sophie and Tom told me that they had a really nice walk that they could take from their house, but…
I know that a lot of people choose to wait until spring or summer to organise a family photoshoot, but actually, you could be missing a real trick here. A winter family photography session can be the most flattering of all! The soft light can be absolutely incredible for photography, and this sort of thing…
It has been so lovely to look back over a year of relaxed family photography. I’ve put some of my favourite images together for this blog post. I’ve loved catching up with families that I have photographed in previous years, as well as lots of new families that I haven’t met before. There have…
I really love a relaxed family photography session that centres around the things your family would normally do. I loved spending time with the Jones family and photographing the time that they spent together one weekend morning. An easy Sunday morning, with the children playing at home, then a whole load of fun chasing kite…
