Captured Moments of Childhood

Childhood changes so quickly, and every stage deserves to be remembered. These portraits celebrate the laughter, curiosity, and wonder of growing up. Based near Harrogate, I photograph children of all ages — from maternity and newborn sessions to playful outdoor shoots and school milestones — creating timeless keepsakes your family will treasure for years to come.

Maternity & Early Days

Soft, gentle portraits that mark the beginning of a new chapter. Whether at home or in the studio, these images capture the quiet anticipation and love that come before your child’s first adventure.

It all starts here …

From those quiet moments of anticipation to the first smiles and tiny hands, these early days portraits celebrate the beginning of your child’s story. Each image captures the warmth, tenderness, and wonder of new life.

Infants & Toddlers

Tiny toes, first steps, and infectious smiles — portraits that preserve the earliest years of your child’s story. Perfect for wall art, photo books, or thoughtful gifts for grandparents.

Playful & Natural Moments

Unposed, joyful sessions in the park, garden, or favourite outdoor spot. I encourage children to simply be themselves — running, exploring, and laughing — to capture their true spirit and personality.

Studio Sessions: Exploring Personality Through Light

A single session can reveal a child’s full range — from quiet reflection to playful energy.
Studio portraits allow me to explore personality through light, pose, and expression.

Whimsical & Creative Composites

A touch of magic, a spark of imagination — these creative composites transform ordinary portraits into fantastical scenes. From candy-coloured dreamscapes to surreal adventures, each piece is designed to celebrate personality, play, and limitless childhood imagination. Perfect for wall art, birthday gifts, or simply capturing the wonder of growing up.
