        A few of my faves from a very cold and very windy winter family photo shoot. This lovely family braved Southend seafront with me between Christmas & New Year, it was worth it though!

        Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
Excuse the radio silence, after the last few tough Christmases this one turned out to be pretty decent. Full of family, friends, loved ones and even some laughter ๐Ÿฅฐ 
This year I've had a refreshing mix of my own weddings and shoots plus lots of 2nd shooting which I've really enjoyed. Recently had a couple of shoots back in the studio and it made me realise how much I'd missed that side of photography! Hopefully 2023 will be another eclectic mix of photography and creativity and a little more time to actually start to paint again! 
Yesterday was my last shoot of the year with a big family shoot on the seafront, cold & windy but a lovely family who braved the weather. I'll leave you with a few of my faves from a recent studio shoot with Frances who is building her portfolio for her acting career. I feel very grateful to have worked with such lovely people this year.
All our wonderful wedding clients, thank you for letting us be a part of your amazing wedding days โค๏ธ I'm grateful to all the photography colleagues who ask me to shoot with & for them this year and who also had my back when Covid struck & of course to my bestie & favourite 2nd shooter Katy. Before I turn all Gwyneth Paltrow I'll just say it's been an absolute privilege! THANK YOU xx
Wishing you all a new year filled with health, happiness & peace ๐Ÿ˜˜

        Lovely to catch up with an Old school friend who asked me to capture some of these birthday celebrations. Their youngest was a bit poorly so wasn't up for many smiles but they were pleased with their gallery non the less. A couple of posed but mainly natural shots to remember the day with their family & friends. Here's a few of my favourites...
