About Me
With over 7 years experience in Maternity, Newborn and Cake Smash Photography I enjoy making every session special and unique in order to provide a high quality result.
My studio is located in the city centre of High Wycombe with easy access to various restaurants, a few minutes away from the M40. Baby facilities, toilets and full use of a kitchen are also available on my premises. I am fully insured and registered with the top Photography Societies in the UK.
In 2009 I have graduated from University of Sunderland with a BA(Hons) Degree in Photography. I then continued my academic studies at Newcastle University where I obtained my MA in Media & PR in 2012.
After spending a few years working as a trainer for companies such as Nikon, Sony and Panasonic and becoming a mum of 3, I have finally started working as a full time Family Photographer .
I have since invested further in my education as a photographer specialising in Maternity, Newborn and Cake Smash Photography and have learned from the best in the industry such as Russ Jackson, Tianna Williams, Maddy Roggers, Emma Jane and more. In the meantime I have won various awards and most recently 2nd Prize at the National Maternity Competitions held by The Newborn and Portraiture Show 2022.
Recently I have received the local award of Top 3 Rated Photographers in High Wycombe in 2023.
For any questions or ideas please feel free to get in touch.
Thank you for considering me and looking forwards to welcoming you in my cozy studio.
Kind regards

FAQs and Useful Information
When and how should I book?
If you are looking for a weekend slot I would recommend at least 6-8 weeks in advance as these slots get booked up the fastest. For weekdays slots at least 3 weeks. Please get in touch with your desired date and I will provide you with my closest availability. Once we agree on a date and time I will send through the invoice for your deposit, which is needed to secure the slot. Without paying a deposit I cannot reserve a slot. The remaining balance is due at the time of the session - I accept cash, bank transfers and card/credit card payments.
How and when do I choose my themes? or Dresses?
On my website you can find all available themes and outfits. I request screenshots of your choices, to be sent over ideally 2 weeks prior to the session to allow time to organise everything for your date.
What do I need to bring with me?
MATERNITY sessions - all you need is some nude underwear and if you wish to bring along and use any personalised outfits or accessories, you are very welcome to do so.
NEWBORN sessions - if baby is bottle fed, please bring some extra milk as they get hungrier during session.
CAKE SMASH sessions - some of their favorite snacks, which we would use to get them started with the cake if they need some extra help and a towel for the bath splash at the end.
How do I receive my images?
A week after the session you will receive the link to your Online Proof Gallery from which you will be able to choose your photos for edit. Once you are done with your selection I will need around 2 weeks to edit and resend your download link from where you will be able to download in full resolution.
What facilities can I find at the studio?
During your time at my studio you will be able to have access to a fully fitted kitchen, wash room and space for you to change outfits, change baby and feel comfortable.
Can we choose the design of the cake?
We always welcome ideas from the clients, however the baker I collaborate with can happily create personalised , theme based designs to best match the set up of your choice.
What if my baby has allergies?
We can cater to your requirements. Many babies have egg or diary allergies which the baker can certainly avoid using. Please mention your requirements at time of booking.
Do you provide hair and make up?
YES :) I work with a team of experienced hair and make up artists to provide the best experience possible. You can include Hair and Make up with any sessions - for an extra charge of £100 ( which would offer you 3 extra FREE digital images on top of your chosen package)
