🚂✨ The Railway Children ✨🚂

Every now and again ( well quite often actually ) I get an idea that I just have to play out, and this beautiful vintage-inspired session at the railway station felt like stepping straight into the pages of a storybook🤎

There’s something so special about railway stations — the timeless charm, the sense of adventure and the feeling that every platform holds a story waiting to be told. 📖✨

Creating this little Railway Children inspired shoot was such a joy, and seeing these moments come to life reminded me just how magical childhood can be — full of wonder, imagination and simple adventures 🥹

Sometimes the most beautiful images are the ones that feel as though they belong to another era. 🚂✨

I know I know, photography is a luxury service, it’s not an essential and I totally get that.
That being said I do offer a trade of services, I have been regularly trading with my local beautician for the last year so here is a list of services I would happily trade for my photography services 😉

🌟 Beauty Treatments
🌟 Aesthetics
🌟 Tattoos
🌟 Cleaning
🌟 Party Decor/Rental
🌟 Photography Services
🌟 Air BnB Stays

If a photo session has been on your heart but not in the budget this is for YOU. Let’s work something out and get your memories captured without stressing the cost! 🩷

It’s funny bc it’s true 😬🤣

In all seriousness though I’ve been in a bit of an editing lull lately I appear to have lost my creative spark, like I feel a bit uninspired you know?

Thing is I have so many creative concepts I want to play out, but finding willing models can be tricky, and then sometimes timing just isn’t on my side or the weather so I end up just parking the ideas and then I feel sad bc I’m not shooting what inspires me!

If you think being a photographer is easy I assure you it is actually not 🤣

Honestly if you ever wondered why it take a me longer than most to get to get your photos back this is why 🤣
I am a chronic over shooter bc I don’t want to miss a single moment, but then it makes culling so hard 🙈
But you also get more images in the end so happy balance?

A whole lot of pastel sweetness, the most gorgeous custom-made little dress and a very special little birthday girl! 🥹💕
I absolutely LOVE when my clients come back to me to capture their little milestones, and this gorgeous girl was no exception. 🥰
From the dreamy pastel setup to the cutest little details, this Ms Rachel-inspired cake smash was just too adorable! 🧁🌈
Thank you for trusting me to capture another special milestone — it’s always such a pleasure watching these little ones grow! 🤍✨

Hello everyone!

I know I’ve been super quiet over here and it’s bc I’ve been thoroughly enjoying a well deserved summer break with my daughter, and we’ve had the most incredible time!

I am home now and fully unpacked and making my way through mounds of laundry and ready to hit the ground running! This trip was just the reset I’ve needed 🥹

Christmas minis will be going live soon and I’m super excited for those years set up, and I am still working on some other projects too I’m excited to share with you 🥰

Any outstanding galleries will be finished and sent out over the next few days, and of course I will be announcing the winner of my summer competition on Monday

Hope everyone has had a wonderful summer
🥹🥰

Lots of love

Jodie
