I don’t personally know this lovely family but they came across as fun, fresh, edgy, and active. I wanted to capture these and reflect them on the final photos.

Meet the Tapps… / London Portrait Photographer
Picture perfect family.
Meet the Pantons… / London Portrait Photographer
The little girl was such a darling to photograph – she loved posing and working the camera. The little boy on the other hand could not be more different; he worked the camera alright, with a grumpy face pretty much the entire time. Ah, but I caught him smiling in two shots and that was just wonderful!
My biggest photoshoot to date: a clan of 22 people – 11 children 11 adults! – London Portrait Photographer
Where do I begin? 22 people which include 11 kids all under the age of 6! I reckon the best place to start is with the head of the clan…. no doubt the calmest and most gentle grandparents to 11 small children I have ever met! We were all in one big room and the kids were running around, clambering over sofas and chairs, rolling on the floor. But it didn’t feel stressful or noisy for some reason. It felt as if life just carried on; it was normal. I … Continue reading My biggest photoshoot to date: a clan of 22 people – 11 children 11 adults! – London Portrait Photographer

Snow + snowman + poinsettia + reindeer pajamas + cheeky-gorgeous C and pretty-adorable F = the perfect Christmas shoot!
Of cameras, weddings and love… / London Wedding Photographer
Seven years ago all I had was a very cheap point and shoot that didn’t take good pictures and cost me a lot of money in developing and printing photos.

The gorgeous Lyths / London Portrait Photographer
Who says kids are difficult to photograph? J and H exceeded all expectations. They did so well, they were true angels!
Another set of twins, girls this time, and very cute! / London Portrait Photographer
M and H were only sixteen weeks when these photos were taken. I have never met such a laid-back contented set of twins.
A family of boys and their lovely mummy / London Portrait Photographer
These boys sleep, dream, and breathe Star Wars! Well, perhaps not the baby yet, but judging from the headstands, jedi moves, and light sabre fights, it won’t be long before little babe joins the fun!
Playing with photoshop: faking a seamless shoot and trying ps overlays / London Portrait Photographer
I’m interrupting my scheduled catch-up blogs with a mini-session of my kids I did just yesterday. I’ve recently swapped some gear for a 50mm 1.4 and a 35mm 1.8 and I’m trying them out. Here are the results.
Welcome Baby Grace – the girliest baby I’ve ever met! / London Portrait Photographer
Meet the newest addition to our church family. She is the girliest girl I have ever met. Who has ever met a 2 week-old baby who loves all things pink, vintage, and Cath Kidston?
The twins are starting to roll over, and crawl, and cruise! J & A at 10 months!
It wasn’t long ago that I got to photograph these adorable twins when they were only 5 and 6 pound tiny little bundles!
Fancy dress and birthday party for three little people
For 2 years running, we’ve had a ‘triple’ birthday for our 3 autumn celebrants in the family.
A mini photoshoot for my son at Princess Diana Memorial Park
Last autumn, I took my little boy to the amazing Princess Diana Memorial Park on a ‘mummy date’.
A little glimpse into my work process: shooting and editing
It’s about time I blogged again!
I have been asked recently by a number of people how I make my images “beautiful”… “A lot of thought and hours and hours of photoshop”, I reply. They laugh.
Autumn Photoshoot
Autumn photoshoot – part one… the lovely Ankita and her little Yasmin…
My Mum and my kids
My kids ADORE my mum, and she adores them. Whenever my mum comes, it’s guaranteed you will hears plenty of laughter in the house. For some reason, my mum makes them laugh. She has her own ways of entertaining them with her stories and jokes and they love it when she tries and teach them words in Cebuano. All my kids are quite shy and have been relatively clingy when they were little. But all three of them have immediately warmed to my mum – their Nanny, from day 1 … Continue reading My Mum and my kids
