Lifestyle and travel photography

Journeying from working as a statistician in the UK Civil Service to a full time freelance photographer, I am grateful for absoecolutely - what I hope comes across - is a kind, giving, affordable and conscientious business.

I simply love photography and delivering your special projects in a romantic, timeless, film-esque style, no matter the genre. So really, lifestyle and travel, to me, means any aspect of your journey, from portraits and events, to interiors and hospitality and if needed more, including website building and social media support - I am here for you!

with Best Wishes,
