Rediscovering Joy: My Journey Back to Photography

Embracing New Beginnings

You honestly wouldn’t believe what life has thrown at me since 2020. My business closed for just over a year, and I truly thought that chapter was gone forever. But the universe had other plans. It brought me back to my beloved studio in Hertford and even reunited me with my fish, my Koi living in the moat beside it. I could never have imagined this twist.

And just like that, I am back. Back doing the thing that lights up my soul. I adore photographing little faces. It does not matter how tiny they are or how chaotic those toddler years can be. I adore them. Childhood is so fleeting and gone in a blink.

The Value of Capturing Moments

What fills my heart is knowing that I am giving parents something they will treasure for the rest of their lives. They may not realise the value of these moments yet, but one day they will. This is not just photography to me. This is purpose.

My ex-husband used to call my work ‘click rip off’, but some people never understand the importance of photography until it is too late.

Creating Lasting Memories

Photography is more than just taking pictures. It’s about capturing the essence of a moment. Each click of the shutter freezes time, allowing families to hold onto their memories forever. I believe that every photograph tells a story.

When I look through the lens, I see the joy, the laughter, and even the quiet moments that often go unnoticed. These are the moments that deserve to be celebrated and cherished.

The Magic of Newborn Photography

As a newborn photographer, I have the privilege of working with families during one of the most magical times in their lives. Those first few weeks with a new baby are filled with wonder and love. It’s a time of discovery, and I am honoured to be a part of it.

Capturing those tiny fingers, delicate features, and the bond between parents and their newborns is truly special. Each session is unique, filled with its own emotions and stories.

A Personal Touch

I strive to create a warm and inviting atmosphere during each session. I want parents to feel comfortable and relaxed. After all, these moments are about them and their little ones. I encourage parents to be themselves, to laugh, and to enjoy the experience.

Every photograph I take is infused with love and care. I want my clients to feel that when they look at their images. It’s not just about the final product; it’s about the journey we take together.

The Importance of Family

Family is at the heart of everything I do. I understand how quickly time passes, especially in those early years. One moment, you’re cradling a newborn, and the next, they’re off to school. I want to help families hold onto those fleeting moments.

In Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Barnet, Enfield, Hertford, Ware, St Albans, and the Herts bordering Essex areas, I see the beauty of family life every day. I am inspired by the love and connection I witness in each home.

Building Connections

Through my photography, I aim to build connections. I want to create a community where parents feel supported and understood. It’s important to me that my clients know they can reach out, share their stories, and feel a sense of belonging.

I am here to celebrate the joys and challenges of parenthood. I want to remind you that you are not alone on this journey. Together, we can create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

Conclusion

Life is full of surprises, and sometimes, those surprises lead us back to where we belong. I am grateful for the chance to return to my passion and to share it with you. Together, let’s create lasting memories that will warm your heart for years to come.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I can’t wait to see the smiles, the laughter, and the love that we will capture together.
