Plot twist - before photography, I was a secondary school teacher for 10 years, specialising in Geography 🌍

And it turns out, a decade of managing classrooms full of teenagers is surprisingly good training for being a photographer.

✨Teenagers who would rather be anywhere else than having their photo taken? I can chat to them without worrying about being too talkative, mildly embarrassing or completely uncool.

✨A large wedding group slowly wandering in twelve different directions? Teacher voice activated.

✨The awkward uncle who has absolutely no interest in joining the family photos? I have dealt with Year 10 on a Friday afternoon. He does not scare me.

✨Keeping a wedding day moving to a timeline while remaining calm when things inevitably run late? Basically a school timetable, but with champagne.

✨And obviously, the Geography teacher in me LOVES a good location. Give me dramatic cliffs, a sandy beach, beautiful gardens, wildflowers or an interesting landscape and I am very happy.

❤So there you go. 10 years in the classroom and it turns out I use far more of those teacher skills in photography than I ever expected.

Now I want to know yours - what is your random hidden talent or previous job that people would never guess?

Life with a new baby can feel like a blur and it’s easy to tell yourself you will book photos later. You do not need to feel back to normal to be in the frame. This season matters too.

I’m a Newborn and family Photographer based in Bangor, Co. Down photographing families in a relaxed and natural way.

If you’ve been thinking about your own newborn shoot, leave me a comment or send me a message. I would love to chat with you.

☀️Summer Minis☀️

For the parents of busy little ones… this is your sign to book the photos 🤍

They don’t have to stand still.
They don’t have to pose for ages.
And they definitely don’t have to look at the camera in every photo.

We walk, explore, cuddle and play, with a little gentle guidance from me along the way.

Your kids get to move, and I get to capture all those lovely natural moments in between 🌿☀️

Summer mini sessions at Bangor Walled Garden were during the summer heatwave and it was gorgeous! 🌼🌸☀️

❤Love doesn't have a timeline.

Every wedding day is different, and that's what I love most about photographing them. Whether you've been together for a few years or a lifetime, the moment you choose to say "I do" deserves to be celebrated and remembered.

Gary and Eithne's day was filled with quiet moments, genuine smiles, and the joy of finally becoming husband and wife. It was a privilege to capture the beginning of this new chapter together.

As a wedding photographer based in Bangor, County Down, I photograph weddings in a natural and relaxed way, creating timeless images that reflect your story and the people you share it with.

If you're planning your wedding and looking for a wedding photographer in Northern Ireland, I'd love to hear about your plans. Send me a message or leave a comment below.

✨ Weddings at Bangor Castle ✨

Billy and Louise chose to celebrate their day surrounded by their closest family, and it was such a lovely reminder that a wedding isn't about how many people are there. It's about the promises you make, the people who stand beside you, and the moments you'll want to remember for years to come.

From exchanging rings, to walking through the grounds together as newlyweds, to the smiles shared with their children, every part of their day told a story that deserved to be remembered.

As a wedding photographer based in Bangor, County Down, I love capturing weddings in a natural and honest way, creating photographs that take you back to how your day really felt.

✨ Wedding Photography ✨

There is something so special about photographing two people who are completely present with each other.

From the quiet moments before the ceremony to the exchange of rings and those first portraits together as husband and wife, every photograph tells part of their story.

As a wedding photographer based in Bangor, Northern Ireland, my focus is always on capturing your day naturally and honestly, so that years from now you can look back and remember exactly how it felt.

✨ Newborn Sessions ✨

The tiny fingers wrapped around yours. The sleepy cuddles. The little stretches, yawns, and curious eyes taking in the world for the first time.

These early days pass so quickly, and before you know it, they've changed again.

My newborn sessions are relaxed and baby led, capturing the real moments that tell your family's story. Whether your little one sleeps through the whole session or wants to stay awake and explore, every stage is worth remembering.

As a newborn and family photographer based in Bangor, County Down, I create natural, timeless photographs that you'll look back on for years to come.

If you're expecting or your little one has recently arrived, I'd love to help you capture this special chapter. Send me a message or leave a comment below to find out more.
