The best wrinkles in town.

A very happy hello to squidgy little Seth. He's got so, so much character and he was such a good boy for us. Such a nice relaxed session with mum and dad cuddled up on the bed, a nice feed and a few changes.

Love this nose to nose!!

Are those the same ears as his Daddy?!

All smiles cozied up with mummy.

He was ready to go! I think this is his Blue Steel pose.

Thanks for letting me try something new- I LOVE LOVE how this turned out.

Your sneak peak of gorgeous Miss Amelia. All of two weeks old, she's absolutely gorgeous and has so much personality. The faces this lady makes are fabulous!




She even had one nice little sleep for us.



but not for too long...

Sammy

A very awake and oh so handsome little Sammy. Have to love those absolutely gorgeous blue eyes. He's such a contended little guy. Makes me realise how much my Eli has grown! Here's a little sampler of our session today. We even managed to get a little smile.

Back to School September Special

I love autumn time. It's my favourite time of year. And being from the states, and a bit of a bookworm, after 3 months of summer vacation, I always looked forward to going back to school. Mind, with a bit of nervous excitement. What to wear on the first day of school, finding my classes, new teachers, new subjects, who I would sit with at lunch.. all very important matters to address.

And so, in honour of all youngsters marching back up the pathway to school, all sessions booked during September will be a special £25 with an additional %10 off all orders over £100.

Class is in session. Let the fun begin!

Dormer Family

A fun afternoon with the Dormer's. They finished their McDonald's at my house and then we were off to the park. Lilly has loads of princess personality with her pink nails and tutu and Noah is a super chilled dude. Probably my fav pics of the day were when the flower was talking to Lilly and Noah getting thrown up and down by his dad. So cute!!

Golden family

I absolutely adore this family. They are so great to photograph. Of course, the oldest being a model helps- he loves to pose!! As for little brother, wel the only time he'll sit still is when he's asked to give little sister a kiss. Which, lucky for me, he loves to do!!

Harley Q

My friend Pippa had her 'not so little' boy Harley, 9 lb 3 while I was in America. I couldn't wait to get back and meet him. And it gave me a chance to try out my new lens. Loved his gorgeous squishy little lips!

A very good place to start...

I'm so excited to finally have to have my blog up. I recently wrote on my Facebook account that I didn't know where to start so I'm glad to have gotten over that initial hurdle! I'm so excited to finally have my blog up. Now to fill it up with a few of my favourite things: pictures of lovely kiddos and families!

I've got to get up to date with some of the recent photo shoots I've done before next Saturday's mini photo shoot extraordinaire! So excited to have some great families lined up to try out some new ideas out and about Horsham.

etc photography is born. Welcome to the journey.

Details

My session fee is £40. Generally your session will last around 1-2 hours. I don't book shoots close together, so there is no pressure of strict time restrictions. I know kids are unpredictable and it can take awhile for them to warm to a new face!
I can come to you, where you and your children are most comfortable and relaxed, surrounded by their favourite things. Or we can arrange to meet at a location of your choice, or one I have scouted out. I work around the Horsham/Crawley/Dorking area. I want your photo shoot to be a memorable experience. Just relax and enjoy.

NEWBORNS:
Newborn photoshoots can take considerably longer, I'll leave plenty of time for feeding, changing, and cuddling. So it's not uncommon for them to last around 3 hours.
The best time to contact me is before you have your baby. I will then keep space available in my diary around your expected due date. Once your baby arrives, the best time to have your session is within the first week for those peaceful, sleepy and very curly poses. After two weeks of age, they are more likely to be disturbed while sleeping, and can also become colicky or baby acne can start to flare.

PRODUCTS:
I offer a variety of products for my clients, including fine art prints, storyboards and session albums. Please contact me for a complete list.

I love my husband and I love being a mum.

I write poetry and enjoy matching socks.

I love making brownies and cookies- and I love eating them even more!

I love photographs, the way they capture that perfect moment and tell stories. Remember that cheeky smile or that wrinkled face. I was first a photographer at 8 when I would dress up my little sisters and arrange their toys just so for the perfect picture.

What more can we ask for in life than to do the things we love and share that journey with others along the way.
