I photograph maternity, newborns, milestone sessions, families and children celebrating occasions such as First Holy Communion in my studio in mid-ulster. Clients are warmly welcomed into my professionally built studio, with a custom infinity wall and a warm, private space for my client photoshoots.
It is an informal space, with a focus on relaxed images which truly reflect you, the client.
MATERNITY
It’s truly a special time, and I love to celebrate this moment in a new mother’s life with simple, flattering and beautifully lit images. Mum’s will forever be the picture takers for their families, so there is no better time to document her, looking & feeling beautiful.
Some prefer a session on location, perhaps there is a special place for you – a first date location, or where he, or she/them proposed? Some clients simply love the coastline.
If that’s you, have a little look at my location shoots page too.
NEWBORN
Your newborn images will become a lasting legacy for your family, of the very moments when mum and dad welcomed their child into our world. Those unique little features will change so soon, and as babies grow so incredibly quickly, you’ll never regret capturing these memories in truly timeless photographs.
Your shoot will be a wonderful experience, from deciding what to wear, through to selecting backdrops and props which allow your images to sit beautifully in the surroundings of your home. I am on hand to advise you, and help you to create wonderful memories from your session.
I’ve been professionally trained by Lidi Lima-Conlon (Newborns by Lidi) who traveled to NI to teach us her highly refined photography techniques and advise us on the important safety procedures required when working with precious newborn babies.
The focus of the session is very much on the family, rather than specifically on the little one (or little one’s!) but please rest assured the images of all the family are softly lit, and angled to please even our most self conscious clients.
MILESTONE SESSIONS
Whether your little one is just starting to sit up, or you’d like to mark them turning one (or any other age at all) then a studio session is a simple and lovely way to mark these special little moments in your lives, a full range of props are available for use in the studio, with little baby and toddler outfits and a large range of gorgeous pieces like our wooden toy pram from The White Company and lots of other items purchased for client use from a range of other bespoke craftsmen.
FAMILIES
We can accommodate parents and their children in our studio with ease, in the case of requests for extended families (to include grandparents, cousins etc.) we recommend clients take a little look at our outdoor session options. Both sessions are focused on natural, timeless images to suit the clients home. Advice is readily given to allow for clothing choices and styling to reflect the space in which images are to be displayed.
Please take a look on our pricing page, to choose a session that will be best for you.
Approximately two weeks after a clients session, I deliver the images digitally – and make print recommendations. I can also suggest some wonderful ways for clients to display the photographs in their home. We can review all the finishing options for the photographs, from dozens of paper & frame finishes to canvases, photo books, thank you cards and many more.
These frames & finishes have been an ongoing labour of love, curated over the years so that you may preserve these memories for the generations to come. I am here to help you so that when you are ready to pick up your artwork it’s easy to take it home, display & enjoy.
