Wedding & Portrait Photographer based in Leicestershire and across the UK.

I have finally got round to blogging about Julie and Nigel’s wedding which took place at Sketchley Grange hotel in September. of 2017. When I first met Julie and Nigel for their consultation before they booked me to be their wedding photographer I instantly loved them. Julie and Nigel are two of the most lovely people I have ever met, both were super excited about their wedding and quite rightly so. Though both older than most of my couples they were still tremendously young at heart. The wedding was to be a great reason for a huge family party.

Boudoir photographer in Leicester / Leicestershire

I adore boudoir portrait sessions, it’s such a great feeling when you have a woman who is nervous and conscious about herself and body come into my studio and then walk out after the session feeling great – that feeling is amazing! Even more amazing when they come back to view their images from the portrait session and cannot believe that it’s them. Who else is it going to be?! For these sessions, I do minimal editing, so I leave my client’s skin ALONE! The whole purpose of a boudoir portrait session is for the woman to feel amazing in her own skin if I edit her skin I’m making her someone she isn’t. It’s about making women feel great in their own skin, giving them their confidence back, showing them that others (like myself) see them as beautiful and showing them in portraits that they are.

Cake smash portrait photographer in Leicester | Leicestershire.

Before I start, I must warn you Harper-Lily is super adorable so just keep that in mind when you see the beautiful images. It has been a little while since I had done a cake smash portrait session, so really wanted to make the set up for Haper-Lily’s portraits just something more beautiful than I’ve done before. I asked Harper-Lily’s mum what kind of theme she wanted to go for, in which she replied with pinks, whites and golds, I thought perfect! I had tassels, the pompoms and a white wood backdrop and I knew this would look great for them.

Wedding and Portrait photographer in Leicester | Leicestershire

This week I wanted to write about Carla’s Boudoir portrait session. I am so glad I got to do this boudoir session for Carla, after what she had told me she suffers from on a daily basis I am so glad she was able to make it to this session. Carla like many is a working mum but she suffers from a few conditions, fibromyalgia being one of them as well as diverticulitis which is an awful condition and stops her doing normal things we all take for granted. With conditions like what Carla, unfortunately, suffers from it stops her from being able to plan and go out when she wants, as well as being more than 30-45mins away from home.

Pre-Wedding Portrait Session; Loughborough Park, Leicestershire

I’m so excited to be able to share with you the pre-wedding portrait session that I had the pleasure of doing with Gemma and Karl a few months ago. Gemma and Karl are two amazing people, a truly beautiful couple. I loved the way they both look at each other, pure love! I was over the moon when they both said yes to booking me to be their wedding photographer, I can’t wait, Gemma is obviously on a countdown, weeks are just flying by which I told them it would.

As soon as we booked the pre-wedding session, which was at the last minute as I was free the weekend and the weather was going to be beautiful, luckily they were both free for the portrait session. Booking it last minute made Gemma stress out a little, I got text messages and pictures asking if these clothes were ok to wear, thankfully we got there in the end. Until the session then they were both nervous – not that you would tell from the stunning images of them both! I worked my magic and put them both at ease straight the way. We talked about their wedding plans between whilst walking and between shots. It’s always nice to hear all the plans my couples have for their special day.

Rebecca and Chris’ Wedding at The Woodlands, Hothorpe Hall, Market Harborough

I first met up with Rebecca and Chris way over a year ago when they booked in for a consultation with me, to potentially book me to photograph their wedding day. The consultation was brilliantWhilstand Becky and Chris wanted to book me to be their professional wedding photographer for their special day; I was so excited and couldn’t wait for their wedding.

After some months passed by, we then booked in for their pre-wedding portrait session. It was such a lovely pre-wedding session! As soon as I saw them ready to start the session I couldn’t believe how much weight they had lost. They both looked fantastic. As a joke in the new year, they said yes to going to either weight watchers or slimming world with a friend, well they actually went and stuck at it. They both looked even more beautiful. The pre-wedding session was lovely, some gorgeous photos of them both together, so this made me even more excited for their big day. As always I tell my couples that the time flies when you’re planning a wedding, as soon as you start the time just goes so fast. They never believe me – none of my couples ever do … until the day and they say you were right it has just flown by! Didn’t I tell you??

You may have guessed already what is coming … Christmas! Christmas is on its way. The past couple of weeks when I have been to the supermarkets and other stores they have had Christmas items in. It’s mostly the tins of chocolates and biscuits, but the other day I took my friend to a warehouse place to look at wedding items and they had a whole Christmas section, a few Halloween items but not much in comparison to the Christmas isles.

Hello my lovelies,

I’m sure if you follow me on Facebook then you may already have seen this but as I have recently moved house, this has also meant having a brand new studio. Guess What?? …… It is complete! Wooop. I’m so excited to share it with you. My dad is super amazing, truly the best in the whole wide world. It was mostly my dad that did a lot of the work to make what was a garden shed into my beautiful studio, not only my dad though one of my older brothers did all the electrics for me. I can honestly say I am truly lucky to have such an amazing family.

Well, what can I say … Julie and Nigel booked in for their pre-wedding portrait photography session as their wedding day is approaching. When we booked in the session, we had a list of different locations that were possible and lovely places for portraits. In the end, we decided on Beacon Hill, Leicestershire, Leicester. Beacon Hill was lovely and quiet when we did the portraits which was great because we had a choice of the sections to Beacon Hill, we didn’t have to wait for people to walk past to take a shot – perfect!

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of photographing Jill, Adrian and their two gorgeous grandsons. It has recently been both Jill and Adrian’s 70th birthday, so as a present for them their wonderful daughter Karen brought them a portrait family photography session to have with me. Karen currently lives in Ireland so she booked the session for them and was hoping to be able to make it to the viewing appointment. Jill got in touch so we booked in the portrait session and we booked in the viewing/ordering session appointment too, we worked it around Karen being back over, I didn’t want Karen to miss out on seeing the images.
