For the last 10 years now I have had the joy of using a great venue for much of my family and portrait photography work, StPeter's Hall in Horsham has been a fantastic space for me to grow and expand my business. It's provided me with a consistent venue for the many photo shoots that I capture there week in week out. The space is
I love maternity photo shoots; the excitement and anticipation of what's to come is infectious. There's a slight nervousness for mothers as they anticipate labour and life with their newborn baby which I love to capture. In my opinion it's something beautiful that needs to be photographed thoughtfully and delicately, and when photographed right is absolutely beautiful. I really enjoyed capturing Sam and Rhiannon a
A lovely couple whom I met a few years back (when they asked me to capture their wedding at what is now known as Brookfield Barn near Horsham) got in touch to inform me that they'd just had twins! Twins! I've got three children of my own and one at a time was enough for me, so hat's off to them! Anyway, they asked me
I just wanted to share this beautiful image captured recently on an engagement photo shoot. John and Kate are getting married at the beautiful Ghyll Manor Hotel in August and we went to capture a few photos of them together as a bit of a warm up to their big day.

There's nothing quite as precious as the arrival of a newborn baby into a family, and I find it such an honour to be asked to photograph this special time of life for both the parents to treasure and the little one to one day look back on. I've captured photos of every type of baby, from those who are wide awake and watching me

The standard of photography and re-touching required for a beauty/fashion shoot is different from a family photo shoot for the simple reason being that the focus is primarily on one person and that person has to look absolutely fantastic!

Portrait photos for a Bulldog. When I was called and asked if I'd be happy to capture a single portrait of a British bulldog, I was a bit perplexed as I am slightly better geared up to photographing families and groups of people, but the customer insisted that he wanted a portrait style photo of his pet pooch. Knowing the old moto "never work with
One of my favourite aspects of being a photographer is being a part of people's lives and capturing their happiest moments for them to treasure forever. Those moments become all the more special as customers come back time and again to show off their growing families, and I get to see their little ones growing up and capture the exciting new chapters in their little
Late November (and very early December) is the time you want to book into the studio or even book an outdoor family photo shoot if you're wanting your photos edited, ready and delivered in time to get prints/canvases and anything like that back in time for Christmas.
