Here is a little sneak peek at our beautiful beach shoot for the amazing British Wedding dress designer Sassi Holford! We had a beautiful day at West Wittering beach, the sun shone and the wind….did it blow! But, I am so excited to share some our beautiful images taken from what we got up to.

Lydie dalton was our amazing floral designer on the day and she created some totally stunning flora designs for the shoot. We had great fun posing our beautiful model Layla all over the beautiful sand dunes that the beach has to offer, and our gorgeous palette of make up and boho hair was created by the super talented Cara Mcdaniel .

More of the results of our shoot coming soon.. watch this space !

Many thanks to all the wonderful parents and attendees of the private view at the Big Beach Cafe on Sunday evening. It went amazingly well and I finally got to meet the wonderful parents of my gorgeous subjects! 

Thank you also to the fabulous staff and management of the Big Beach Cafe- you guys are absolute legends and I couldn't have asked to a better start to my exhibition.

I am very proud to announce that I have received an 'Honorable Mention' in the much coveted 2015/16 I.P.O.T.Y Awards.

I entered my portrait of Rueben and am very pleased with the result as the competition was tough! Watch this space for more competitions coming to fruition in the next few months and sneak previews of my Taylor Wessing entries for 2016.

Ive just updated my website with some lovely images I have taken for ABC magazine (the Summer issue out on 1st July 2015) and I am very excited to announce that one of them has been chosen as the front cover for the Hampshire wide edition.

The photograph chosen is one of a little girl eating an ice cream, the image need to be 'as Summery as possible' when in fact it was blowing a gale and freezing cold on Hove seafront! It was a lot of fun all the same and everyone ended up with Ice cream.

Look out for my editorial piece inside the magazine on  'How to get the best photographs of children'I have tried to give some top tips whilst not giving away all of my secrets ;)

On a freezing grey February day last week I went to the Essex tidal salt marshes of Wallasea Island. I spent many years of my life here, looking for stuff to do while my parents either sailed,scrubbed off anti foul or were in the 'Wardroom' with friends. 

The tidal inlets were as muddy and smelly as I remember them - I used to scan them for hours looking for crabs or jetsam from France. Random things always make their way in land after a high tide and I loved to scour the high water mark for evidence of people from far off lands (but usually just as far as Southend on sea;)

The large metal and wooden blocks in some of the photographs are the old pontoons that our boats used to be moored to. Believe it or not they actually float and got here the same way as the lighter jetsam has. 

One gave me a nail through the foot, several others gave me hours of splinter torment and I caught jellyfish after jellyfish in my fishing net while balancing on the un submerged part of our mooring block.

These ones have been here for as long as I can remember, almost definitely washed up after the great Hurricane of 1987.
