On Saturday it rained. Like, really rained… Cold torrential downpours all day long, without a break. I was due at the beach for a shoot with a lovely family which despite being nearly June, just wasn’t going to happen! So with a day freed up to spend with my beautiful daughter and an itchy trigger...

I had the great pleasure of photographing Marianne and her daughter Jenneke in the heart of Edinburgh. We had a fantastic time, they just laughed and giggled the whole shoot, both have such fantastic bubbly personalities. Thanks for a great time and for rolling with all of my wacky ideas! I’ll look forward to showing...
Spring has finally sprung!
Could it be that spring weather has actually finally hit Scotland?! It’s days like yesterday when I remember why I really love my job. I headed out to ‘the office’ – Yellowcraigs beach at Dirleton – in glorious sunshine for a fab family shoot with the Mackenzies! Such a lovely family, the kids Katie and...
Smily happy people…
What a lovely little man! Baby Owen was all cheerful and cherubic, a very contented wee baby and a complete delight to photograph, as were his folks!! Thanks for a great shoot…Some days I just love my job…. FacebookTwitter
My favourite waste of time…
Oh bother… Cute baby + lovely new colourful towels = no work for me this afternoon! Was supposed to be getting stuck into editing, but this wee sweetie kept distracting me, dagnamit!… FacebookTwitter
Baby Theo: Made with love…
My lovely friends Kate and David have just had their beautiful wee baby Theo! Very exciting, I’m so happy for them both, they’re such wonderful people and now fantastic parents! They’ve been such great friends, have supported me through thick and thin, and I’m just so pleased that they’re now a family! Just before the...
Double trouble…
My daughter Rose now has a wee pal to push around – cousin Phoebe! I’m sure they’ll get up to lots of mischief together in the future, watch this space for high jinks and nonsense… Their first photoshoot together went well, although Rosie kept eating Phoebe’s hand, and then Phoebe tried to bite Rosie’s nose…...
Harry and Rory…
I was out in the beautiful countryside in Dollar recently, to photograph Andrew and Rachel with their delightful wee boys Harry and Rory. I first met them (minus Rory!) back in October 2011, when I photographed them and the rest of the extended family at the beach, great fun… Lovely to see how Harry is...
Abby: round two…
With spring being so late this year and our sunny days so few and far between, I was delighted to be headed out on a lovely morning to photograph the beautiful Abby, with parents Rob and Jen… This was our second shoot together as Abby was a bit off colour last time we met, so...
Happy as can be…
Welcome to the world beautiful baby Phoebe! My gorgeous niece was born mid March, a bonny wee redhead with a lovely temperament! She’s such a wee sweetie – congratulations Chloe and Ryan!!! I’m over the moon for them, she’s such a bundle of joy and they make cracking parents! At one month old she’s already...
Francesca…
I had a wonderful time on friday photographing a beautiful little girl called Francesca. There’s a lovely timeless quality to her, something classic about her face with her lovely elfin hair and she was just the sweetest thing on the shoot, lots of giggles and serious pouts, she charmed me as soon as I was...
Hooray for Horatio…
Now this gorgeous wee man was a LOT of fun to photograph! Such a character, Horatio was just lovely from beginning to end - smiley, cheeky and full of beans, I had a great time capturing him running around the Botanics… Thanks Mike and Daljit for a lovely afternoon… FacebookTwitter
Pincers at dawn…
Rose has spent the last week perfecting her finger and thumb pincer action, grabbing everything she can get her hands on with the most intricate movements. Lovely to see but it’s not always a good thing… I curled Rosie into bed with me this morning to try and get a bit more sleep after her...
Happy chap…
I had a cracking morning this week photographing the absolute heartbreaker Marcus, six months old to the day and about as cheery as you can get! So many smiles, such lovely big eyes, I took far too many pictures as he was such a contented wee soul. He’s not quite sitting yet so we had...
Back in the saddle again…
Well, I’m back behind the lens again after my break for maternity leave and loving it! On Saturday I was busy photographing handsome wee man Ruan – thirteen months old, just toddling along and such a lovely character. He had lots of gummy smiles to give and after some colourful shots indoors we headed out...
Eight months old…
My beautiful wee girl is nearly eight months old and it’s such a lovely stage. Gorgeous and cheruby, all rosy pink cheeks, long lashes, gummy thumb sucking and plump legs, I just had to capture just a little of this scrumptious stage before Rose is all grown up and causing havoc! Love, love, love that...
Chloe…
My beautiful sister-in-law Chloe at eight months pregnant. I’m so looking forward to meeting Rosie’s new wee cousin… FacebookTwitter
Merry Christmas…
Happy Christmas to all out there… My lovely girl Rose was a star, dressing up for a few festive pictures…. FacebookTwitter
Five years time…
I was delighted to be asked back to photograph wee Harry, who I first photographed as a bump over five years ago! First I shot Jane’s maternity portraits, then photographed Harry as a newborn, and so it was great to see how the family are getting on five years later! Harry has grown into an...
Cracking colours…
I love this time of year, all glorious colours, pumpkins and bonfire toffee. Today I shared a wonderful walk in the Botanics with friends Lucy and Matt and their three children, Daphne, Rosie and Benjamin. Lots of fun, I just had to take some shots of the kids in the beautiful colours before the last...
