WHY?
The toddler and preschool years are precious. In a blink of an eye the children are at school. I aim to provide parents beautiful images that record these early childhood memories. Being able to see your little one happy in their nursery setting is something I value as a mum and want others to have the same.
HOW?
My style is simple and natural, focussing on the personalities of each child. I love to capture it all from the playfulness, intense looks, curiosity, grubby hands and the amazement of learning something new. I will find a way to connect with each child, putting them at ease and allowing them to just be themselves. After all, that's what this is all about - capturing the children just the way they are.
WHY ME?
With two little ones, I understand how chaotic life can be and I love to look through the lens as a mother above everything else. Nothing needs to be perfect
in order to capture kids being themselves.
WHEN & WHERE?
The best time of year to attend your nursery is from Spring through until the end of Autumn. I appreciate that not all children attend nursery on the same day, so it’s best to attend your setting mid week to maximise the number of children that can be photographed and offer for those who do not usually attend to pop in for a few pictures.
I focus on capturing beautiful portraits typically outdoors. I love using the natural light in my photography.
Routines are important for all children, so I do my best to work around the routine at the nursery making sure that snack time and lunch time are no
different. Well fed kids = happy children!
"I just wanted to write a quick note to you to say how happy we were with how the mornings you spent at our nursery photographing the children went. We have had several photographers over the years and the time spent with you preparing for the sessions and during them was so relaxed and easy. The staff loved working with you and really appreciated your patience as they reassured some of the younger children and your responsiveness to the older children as they went about their play! The picture you took were beautiful and really caught the children’s individual personalities and as such we very much look forward to working with you again in the near future.“
“Thank you so much for the absolutely beautiful photos of our son. We love them! you’ve captured his cheeky grin, deep frown and lovely smile perfectly.“
“Thank you so much for the gorgeous photos of our son - we love how you captured his cheeky spirit and smile!"
WHATS NEXT?
I'm so glad you asked! I’d love to meet you to discuss being your dedicated photographer. I always find it beneficial to meet in person, so I can get to know you and vice versa.
