New on the blog – Spring Mini Sessions in Dulwich Park

I’ve just shared a few favourites from the recent family mini sessions in Dulwich Park. These short sessions are a great way to capture natural, relaxed moments together without too much fuss.

The light was beautiful, the park was in full bloom, and it was lovely to see so many families just enjoying some time outdoors.

If you’re curious about what a mini session looks like or thinking of booking one in the future, feel free to take a look.

Between Christmas and New Year’s, on a crisp, sunny day, I had the pleasure of capturing James & Clare’s intimate wedding at Brighton Town Hall. With just nine guests, it was such a personal and special celebration!

After their ceremony in the Regency Room - festively decorated with a real Christmas tree - we took a stroll through the Lanes and down to the beach for some relaxed portraits. The sea was unbelievably still, and the winter light made for the most stunning backdrop.

I love capturing weddings like this!

Planning a wedding in Brighton? I’d love to hear from you.

Celebrating Freddie’s naming ceremony at the beautiful Ockenden Manor in Cuckfield was an absolute joy!

Unlike a Christening, a naming ceremony is entirely non-religious, giving families the freedom to create a celebration that reflects their values and hopes for their child. Some choose to include readings, music, or symbolic gestures like lighting candles or planting a tree.

If you’re planning a naming ceremony and want natural, storytelling-style photos to cherish, I’d love to be part of your special day!
