Happy 1st December!

I love Mondays, the first of every month, the first of every year, which will be coming up soon! What a year it has been. I’m not going to do one of those reflecting over the year posts but just wanted to say that I have been thrilled to have launched the “40 over 40” campaign in September!

Inviting 40 women and men to join me to create something unique and beautiful about themselves as a way to celebrate their age and who they are.

Seeing the reaction and the joy when I share the portraits makes me all emotional. An invitation to stop and appreciate our age and who we are.

The campaign was recently featured on @claphammums sharing a little more on the motivation behind it, what it involves and how to join.

The feature is available on @claphammums website (link is in my bio as well).

If you can think of someone who needs to see this and needs to stop and celebrate themselves, why don’t you share it. I am still taking people on for this incredible transformative experience, looking for 30 people to join.

Could it be you? Or could it be a gift for someone?

I had the best surprise when the Master Portrait Awards results were released on 15th November.

I entered the competition mostly for feedback and to also see how these recent images I took with this lovely client would be rated. The portraits were created as part of the 40 over 40 campaign I am running, inviting women and men in their 40s and beyond to join me to create something unique and transformational.

After my usual Monday evening netball game, I checked my account and saw the 2 bronze awards the images had won!!!

Having only started in the contemporary portrait genre in June, I feel super grateful that these are recognised as images at a professional standard. Of course learning continues each day and thanks to @suebrycephotographer for her amazing learning platform @theportraitsystem.

For now I just want to relive that feeling of joy and excitement I felt when I saw the results!

The campaign is open and I am still taking people on, link in bio.

Thanks for trusting me with your family photos while in London!

I haven’t managed to post about this lovely family yet that I photographed last year and this year before they went back to Canada.

I love meeting families from around the world that make London their home.

It’s been a busy day here with galleries & emails. Hope everyone is having a good Thursday!!!

Time for a festive and colourful post! 🎉🥁🔥

Christmas family shoots are on 27/28th November and 5th December.

Due to some schedule movement I can accommodate a couple more families, so for bookings do get in touch directly, DM or email.

First time i photographed this family their little boy was 3 months old (now 3) and I’ve also met his little sister.

A great way to create memories ❤️🤩

Cruising already!

We’re getting at the time of the year when it’s safer to plan photoshoots indoors.

Although I still have a couple planned outdoors at the weekend but I must admit I love the warmth and certainly of the studio. I know we won’t get wet 😂❤️

Hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend like this little one is to life generally 🤩😍

How long are they little for?

Well in my view they’re little until they’re 3-4 years and then they’re are little but a little bigger until 7-8. 8-10 is a period of change, they grow, they have new teeth coming out etc and I find that age still cute but they’re growing up.

My eldest is now 10 and I have really noticed a change, a bigger taller boy with mood swings (pre-puberty??) and one that looks so different to his littler version of himself.

This is definitely little and with plenty of cuteness ❤️❤️

When did you feel your children really changed?

Those blue eyes!!! And the denim baby rompers!!

What do you think is the number one concern, parents have when thinking of booking a photoshoot for their babies?

From my experience parents often worry about how will the babies behave. Will they smile? Will they be content?

My answer to that is often in the planning of the session, so the timings of the day, the time of the feeds and sleeps. Things that are outside of the time we spend together but that make a difference in the time we spend together.

When babies are content I love playing with them, singing songs, playing peekaboo, clapping etc.

That window is often short that’s why we work quickly… 😅

Let me know if these sound right, and if there are any other issues that you might think of.

If you’d like photographs that capture what is timeless and precious in your family, get in touch today to reserve your date.

Life is too short to not be documented beautifully.

“Being part of a family means smiling for photos

“Being part of a family means smiling for photos”, right? I do agree with this quote 😂😂

Picking quotes is something I’ve been enjoying recently. What I’m really good at is picking natural spots and relaxed moments that capture the special bond and the love that runs through a family.

To reserve your spot and be totally relaxed, details for autumn shoots are in the bio.

“Children are not things to be molded, but are people to be unfolded.”

I loved working with this family and their fierce little one ❤️❤️

Although the weather is turning colder I know how to make you feel warm by jumping, running around and being physically active during a photoshoot outdoors.

Mini autumn sessions are coming up in Cannizzaro park next Saturday!!!

Last year I was asking for suggestions for places to go out of london and not too far from London and Seven Sisters Cliffs was suggested to me by @amandabenaki

We went to East Sussex for my father’s 70th and got to visit the area and go for a walk to Seven Sisters Cliffs.

Beautiful views and a lovely walk in the fresh sea air!!

And if you’ve seen my stories I had a photo accepted in vogue online today that was taken in seaford beach with seven sisters cliffs in the background.

It’s good overall to go out of london it seems?? 🤣❤️🙏

“Practice whatever you want in the future, now”.

Love this quote and found it very fitting this week, as I’ve been back to running first thing in the morning and listening to many inspirational talks.

Also happy to have these 2 pics added to my Vogue Online portfolio (more than a year after my first photo was accepted).

I’ve been uploading photos every week for over a year and for these ones I had a good feeling.

Pics taken in Wales while walking down from Pen Y Fan.

Also sharing the info, it is free to register with vogue online and create an account. You can upload photos every Monday and Tuesday to be accepted and the editorial team decide to accept them or not??!!

🤞😍

Every time I get an email ping from someone enquiring about my 40 over 40 campaign I jump for joy.

I have had a few more ladies join in this week. I spoke to them on the phone, which I always do to tell them more about the campaign and what is included.

We then schedule the date for the zoom consultation as well as the date for the photoshoot.

I’m very excited as this campaign is being very well received and I am speaking to women and men from all over London not just south west London, my usual area.

The campaign is one year long and people can join during that time and at the end there will an exhibition style event with all participants in the campaign! It will be so fabulous to connect everyone and to share and listen to everyone’s stories.

Curious and want to jump on board? The link to the 40 over 40 campaign is in the bio ❤️❤️

How do you work as a team? Who are the people that are behind the business and help run it?

Showing your team members creates trust and helps build relations which is so important with new clients but also your existing ones.

I hope this mini series of when and why you should update your company photographs was useful.

Let me know with some comments 🙏❤️

Another aspect that a business needs to show “visually “ is client interaction and having that sparkle and exciting attitude.

We all want to do business with companies that make us feel valued and listened to.

Are you showing that to your clients and future clients ?

Technology not only makes life easier but it improves communications. Are you showing that and making it visible for your business?

When is a good time for a business to look / commission new photography and imagery?

It usually happens on the occasion of a rebrand, a new website launching or a new direction in the business.

The best thing when such a time approaches as well as looking at overall branding is to put together a photography brief that will contain all the useful directions for everyone involved: type and look of images, location, people involved, how much time etc. To make sure everything goes to plan.

Loved working with this independent Estate Agent in South West London for their new website launch.

Love this portrait especially made for a lovely lady!!

And a couple of behind the scenes from the makeup session before the shoot with @rowenalatiff_mua ❤️❤️

Most people don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera, I know and I also feel full of emotions and self aware when I’m on the other side 😂😂.

However the best thing to do is to go with it and enjoy that time out of a busy schedule.

Having the makeup before the shoot also helps to relax and then I also work out my magic 😂😍

I’d love to know what is the thing you worry the most about being in front a camera?? Answer below 👇🏻🙏

We had so much fun during this session which was a combined session including a family photoshoot & a personal branding session.

I have done a few of these combined sessions, which works well in terms of time and arrangements as we make the most of the time of being together.

I love this location in south west London, near Wimbledon - anyone can take a guess where it is??

I’m finalising the details of my autumn sessions and will publish the page with details on how to book shortly but in a nutshell autumn sessions are for:
- outdoor photoshoots for families
- outdoor personal branding
- autumn mini sessions

Let’s make the most of being outdoors this season!

If you can’t wait for the page to be out and want to book in for any of the above, message me 👋 🤣❤️
