A little over a decade ago, I picked up a point and shoot camera for a weekend away at the beach with my then boyfriend (now husband). I took a picture of him with his surfboard ready to jump in the water, and my love of this medium was born - it’s still my favourite shot out of the many hundreds of thousands I’ve taken to this day.

Many of you will have your own favourites of the moments I’ve captured over the years, and whilst I have enjoyed immensely those many moments I’ve been able to witness, this last 6 years or so has been somewhat of a rollercoaster. I have laughed, I have cried (lots), ridden highs, suffered lows, made the most amazing friends (both clients and colleagues), but most of all I have worked and worked and worked.

The time has come to step back.

I want to be clear that this is not a covid casualty situation, and that this decision has been made by me, and not for me. It is time for rest, recuperation, and for the nurturing and witnessing my own families memories for a little while.

This job is fun, but it is also gruelling, stressful and to be honest, at times really tough. I have been lucky to have been able to build my business up, but this has also meant it is unrelenting, and this it has taken its toll on me.

I am forever indebted and grateful to the people who have believed in me from the start, and those that have given me the chance to capture the moments I have - it’s meant I’ve achieved things I never could have dreamed of - so thank you!

Rest assured if you are a current client, everything remains as normal. If you have enquired with me recently I will be getting back to you shortly with some recommendations - I want to thank you for your patience with me on this.

For now take care, and I’ll see you soon - I have a new project here at if you’d like it to be sooner 🙃
