Hello!
The first thing you'll notice when we meet is my accent! I grew up in England and moved to Rye, New York in 2005 when my kids were in single digits. Fast forward 20 years and one is now living in Los Angeles and the other in Manhattan.
The empty nest comes around quicker than you expect so I'm passionate about helping you capture your family and growing children - you will never regret not putting it off!
We're incredibly fortunate to live in this beautiful part of New York with the Long Island Sound, Rye Town Park, Edith Read Sanctuary and Marshlands Conservancy right on our doorstep, plus many more locations in surrounding towns and in nearby Connecticut. Each season offers a different, but equally beautiful backdrop for an outdoor session.
If you don't live locally I am more than happy to meet you at your favorite location so just let me know and we can discuss during your session planning.

Are perfect the way they are and don't need to be 'posed' or surrounded by props. Babies, gently wrapped or full/partially naked, are in charge during their session, and plenty of time is allowed for feeds and diaper changes!

There's nothing more important than capturing family connections, whether candid or gently 'directed' by me. It's not unusual for me to get teary-eyed when editing your session images and see special moments that were captured. The in-between hugs, the smiles and laughter from kids (and parents)
goofing around, and the random signs
of affection captured when no-one is looking. I feel privileged to be able to 'freeze' these moments in time, a reminder that "photographs are the great pause of life".
Families
Kids are encouraged to be themselves during the session. It's not about the smiles - if they come naturally then great, but the most important thing is to allow their moods and personalities to shine through.

Capturing the real you!
Enjoy a relaxed and un-rushed session as I guide you through natural poses that will leave you feeling more confident about being in front of the camera and happy with your images.
With social media being such a huge part of our lives, our digital identity has an important role in promoting our personality and professionalism so it's important to make the investment in you and put a face to your brand.

Our children grow way too fast and before we know it they've flown the nest. Please get in touch if you'd like me to help preserve special memories for you, and them. Your children will thank you when they're older!
