POV: You book the chicest London elopement imaginable

18/04/2026

It’s been a little quiet here for a while, at least when it comes to sharing weddings, and not because there hasn’t been anything to show, quite the opposite.

I recently saw a post from a worried bride who hadn’t seen her photographer share anything for a month and thought they had disappeared… and it made me smile, but also made me think. I wondered if any of my own couples might be thinking the same, that I’d quietly vanished or gone into some kind of hibernation.

The truth is, I haven’t gone anywhere.

While my team have been capturing and creating behind the scenes, this past year has looked very different for me. It’s been a season of stepping back, reflecting, and learning to be present, not as a photographer, but as a mum, a daughter, a wife, and a friend.

2025 changed everything. I was heavily pregnant with my third baby, unexpected, but so deeply loved. Pregnancy for me is never easy, and this time was no different. Months of sickness, dizziness, bed rest, and a high-risk journey, all alongside a busy wedding season… it was a lot.

Then, just before my baby arrived, I suddenly lost my dad 💔

He’s the reason I became a photographer. He gave me my first camera, encouraged me, challenged me, and believed in me long before I believed in myself. Losing him made everything feel heavier, especially the thought of photographing those emotional moments at weddings.

So I stepped back.

For the first time in over 12 years, I allowed myself to pause. To be at home, to rest, and to be present with my baby.

Towards the end of the year, I slowly returned with a few weddings for close friends, and something shifted. I didn’t fall apart. Instead, I felt present and grateful.

I realised my life as a photographer hasn’t ended, it’s just changed.

More intentional.

More aligned.

So if you’ve been wondering where I’ve been, this is it. And if you’re still here, thank you 🤍

There’s so much I’m looking forward to sharing… just slowly

We went to Paris without a plan 🇫🇷📷

Just an instinct to arrive and let the light, the streets, and the architecture lead us.

Glass reflecting light.
Stone, texture, historic doorways.
And a quiet moment, the Eiffel Tower framed by blossom, almost hidden.

We are so similar, and yet so different.

Two photographers.
Four cameras.
And endless ideas.

Drawn to the same things, light, texture, history, but seeing it all in our own way.

Twelve years ago, we were two single mums with daughters, building something from nothing.

Since then, hundreds of weddings, every emotion, every moment.

It’s always been an honour to be part of such meaningful moments in peoples lives.

But this past year, I stepped back.

To be present. To become a mum again.

And this week, my baby turned one.

I’m so thankful for every couple, wedding planner, venue and supplier who supported me, and gave me the space to do that, and to my incredible team, especially Ellie, who carried so much for me.

Now I’m back.

But not the same.

More intentional. More aligned.

Taking my time as I find this next chapter.

And always grateful for Margo,
for the friendship, the support, and a shared love of light.

More to come

soon…… X

We don’t usually comment on politics from this platform. It’s not what we’re here for. But this isn’t about party politics, it’s about protecting our environment, our communities, and future generations.

As a family and as a business rooted in the South West, we care deeply about nature.
The rivers our children paddle in.
The beaches we walk.
The oceans that make this part of the world so special.

Our work is often outdoors, documenting love stories by the sea, capturing families exploring the coastline, embracing everything this beautiful landscape gives us. It’s part of who we are.

After watching Dirty Business, on Channel 4
we felt genuinely heartbroken & outraged.

The ongoing sewage pollution affecting our rivers and seas is devastating. It raises serious questions about accountability, responsibility, and how we safeguard what matters most.

We believe this is something that affects all of us, especially here in the South West.

If you feel the same, you may want to look into the work being done by
Surfers Against Sewage

They are campaigning for cleaner water and greater transparency around sewage discharge.

If you’d like to support the petition, you can find it here:
https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/end-the-profit-driven-sewage-pollution-scandal-1?source=rawlink&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_source=rawlink&share=b48b125f-3d53-4c81-921d-1d421ec534d9

Let’s protect the places we love. For our children. For their future. For the simple joy of a clean sea and safe rivers.

If you’re near the coast today, take a moment to appreciate how precious it really is.

We owe you a little apology 🤍

We really tried.
We watched the forecast.
We rearranged dates.
We hoped the rain would ease.
But the truth is… this half term’s outdoor mini shoots just haven’t worked.

The weather has been absolutely appalling 🌧️ Flooded fields, muddy paths, grey skies that just aren’t giving the light or the experience we want for you.

And rather than keep postponing and waiting for the rain to stop… we’ve decided to pivot.

So instead, we’re launching something that doesn’t depend on the forecast at all.

✨ Half Price In-Home Sessions ✨

Newborn • Maternity • Family Lifestyle

And if these images are anything to go by… home might actually be where the magic is.
These sessions aren’t about perfectly styled rooms or stiff posing.

They’re about:
• Tiny curled newborn toes wrapped in soft blankets
• Toddlers giggling on the bed
• Bare feet lined up side by side
• Parents sitting close on the sofa, holding both chaos and calm
• The dog wandering into the frame because… that’s real life

The light is soft.
The colours are neutral and timeless.
The feeling is warm, relaxed and full of connection.
You don’t need a show-home. You don’t need everything tidy. You just need yourselves.

Newborn sessions are completely baby-led, slow, gentle and calm.

Family sessions feel like cuddles, laughter and movement.
Maternity sessions are intimate and natural, surrounded by the space you’re preparing to bring baby home to.

And when you look back at these photographs, you won’t just see what everyone looked like.

You’ll remember:
The weight of them in your arms.
The sound of that giggle.
How small those toes were.
How full your sofa felt.

Sometimes home is the most meaningful backdrop of all.

If you were hoping to book a half term mini, this is our way of making it up to you, and creating something even more personal in the process 🤍

Thank you for bearing with us (and this never-ending rain).
We can’t control the weather… but we can still create something beautiful.

To book your session please complete the form below and we will get back to you with our availability
