One of the reasons I LOVE engagement shoots so much is because they give us all a chance to slow down, have some fun and get to know each other before the wedding day itself ✨

Just one month before their June wedding, I met the lovely Lizz + Alex at the absolutely stunning Ashridge House where they’ll soon be saying “I do” 💍

As the shoot went on, they became more and more relaxed in front of the camera — which is SO helpful ahead of the big day. By the end we were laughing, wandering the grounds and completely lucked out with the most gorgeous weather too ☀️

I always think these sessions are about so much more than photos. They help build trust, confidence and connection, and it’s such a lovely way for our relationship to blossom before the wedding itself 🤍

Roll on June ✨

Something I’ve been quietly working on behind the scenes for a very long time is finally starting to become real… ✨

I’m honestly SO excited.

There are still lots of details to finalise, plans to pull together and things to announce properly… but once again St Albans has completely inspired me and reminded me why I love creating events here so much 🤍

This next chapter feels really special and I genuinely cannot wait to share more with you all soon.

If you want to be FIRST to hear the announcement, please make sure you sign up to my newsletter via my website:

So excited for what’s ahead ✨

Brilliant day with FSP at the BAFTA’s discussing future of AI. Great day, very well thought out by the team and always lovely to reconnect with FSP in general. Thanks for some awesome thought provoking ideas.

What a wonderful venue for small events. I had a lovely meeting here today and was able to see the gorgeous space available. I will be holding a little event here on Thursday 14th May. Details to come but if you fancy learning more about it subscribe to our newsletter or email me [email protected]

A fantastic opportunity to see inside this historic building home of the amazing entomologist Eleanor Omerod if you didn’t know that already. And guess what there are six beautiful bedrooms you can hire here too for a really private and luxurious stately home feel. It’s definitely a hidden gem in the heart of St Albans

It’s not where we went today that was important it’s where we didn’t go !!

Today was a lovely content creation walk soaking up the history of Holywell Hill with a gorgeous collection of local creatives while taking social media reels and photos but having so much fun along the way. Thanks to:






After a stroll down to sneak a peak (not) at the oh so well hidden grand design house we turned a corner to ponder the history home of entomologist Eleanor Omerod who endorsed the use of the arsenic Paris green as an insecticide (the same powder green they think made Van Gogh mad ) past the seed warehouse which once belonged to Samuel Ryder who was the first person to sell penny packet seeds to the victorians now

Quick and unexpected stop to visit hairdresser and stylist to meet Lee and his beautiful dog Neo and visit the spectacular bathroom - not to be missed.

We popped into to see the ancient wall mural of Venus and Adonis - what a find and then on to and found the door to the cellar of ghosts. Secret passage way boarded up but still exciting.

Last stop to find the local legend cowboy of St Albans , Ginger Mills belt he made for Marsha Hunt but alas no joy locating it just plenty of fun scooting about the old jail and passageways. Finishing off with a fab visit to get coffee and cakes for the loveliest orange and cardamom bun and scoffed the lot in the beautiful century gardens while admiring the old mulberry tree.

What a day. Thanks for coming guys. Next tour and content walk Friday 8th May. Email [email protected] I totally love doing these fun walks and creating useable content to share afterwards and plus we meet local people and small businesses in St Albans which makes it even more exciting. Thank you to everyone who allowed us into your shop and to everyone who booked my mini tour so I could show you all the things I love about St Albans.

When was the last time you updated a photo of you that actually feels like you? Eek scary I know!

I recently photographed a brilliant local family for individual portraits. Grown-up children building their own careers, each needing something slightly different, but all wanting to feel confident and authentic in how they are represented. It was great fun.

I created a full set of portraits for each person in just an hour so roughly 10 minutes per person with approx 6 different backdrops, different moods — quick, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable.

It reminded me how important it is to update your image. Whether you’re on LinkedIn, running a business, or just stepping into a new chapter, having a photo that feels like you matters more than we think.

And if the idea of it feels a bit daunting… it doesn’t have to be. The best part of these sessions is how quickly that nervousness disappears.

I love doing these shoots — they’re creative, fun and such a lovely way to capture people at this stage in their lives. If you are interested just email me [email protected] - and if you fancy the content creation walk on Friday 17th April in St Albans for some instant reels of yourself out and about get in touch!
