Whilst growing up, I never thought I could ever make a living from being a photographer, but here I am, 30 years later and still loving what I do. I specialised in People photography. Wedding photography. Artistic photography that has won me awards. But it is always Family photography that has held a special interest for me.
I’ve photographed many a couple on their wedding day, who then come back to me a year or two later for maternity shots, and before you know it they in the studio again with their beautiful Newborn. Then in the blink of an eye, it’s their first birthday and it is time for a Cake Smash photoshoot! Over the years, I’ve even been lucky enough to photograph these babies as they grow into toddlers. Who come back for our Magical Fairy and Elf adventure shoots. I couldn’t believe it when one family then called me to a Sweet 16 shoot! This was a girl who I had photographed as a ‘bump’ – as a tiny newborn and all of a sudden she has become a young woman... It is a privilege to be part of this very special process for a family; it’s like being a distant uncle to children you get the joy of watching grow up.
If I thought time had flown by, image what mum and dad must have felt coming back and realising their ‘baby girl’ is actually no longer a baby, or even a child. You assume you are going to remember all the little details of your children's early years, but as each year passes, sometimes the older memories are being replaced with the new ones!
These days, we all seem to have such busy and hectic schedules. Many times I have heard the phrase “We just don’t have time right now. Maybe next year.” The problem is the years fly by, the sessions never happen and before we know it, our babies are toddlers, our toddlers are children, then children into teens and they have grown up right before our eyes without even noticing.
When you walk into our studio, the magical portrait experience begins! We have made capturing forever moments an easy process for parents, as well as an exciting adventure for the children. From dreaming up the perfect scene, adding the magical artwork effects to then creating a stunning piece of art to display in your home.
