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...

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...
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
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...
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
Abby…
Check out this beautiful little girl – Abby has such gorgeous peepers and a crazy mop of hair – love it! On the morning of the shoot she was a bit of a poorly girl, but she still managed to pull out the smiles and there’s some sweet shots of this wee poppet….Watch out for...
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...
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...
Bonnet bairn…
I love old style bonnets, and whoever knitted this beauty should be up for an award! Rose looks a right bonny bairn in her new bonnet, I just couldn’t resist taking a quick shot of her… x FacebookTwitter
Autumn in the park…
It was the coldest day of the year so far in Edinburgh but truly beautiful. Crisp, sunny and filled with colour, it was the perfect day to photograph my friends Liesel and Giles with their beautiful wee two year old boy Dexter in glorious Inverleith Park. I first photographed Dexter as a tiny newborn at...
Smile…
…and the world smiles with you… Hard to resist smiling at her cheeky chops first thing in the morning, no matter how many times she woke me up through the night… FacebookTwitter
Elephant infatuation…
She only has eyes for Elmer… FacebookTwitter
Finally…
Ok, my apologies…Daft idea for me to do a photo a day when moving house and going without broadband for the moment! So, much delayed, here are a few pictures of my Rosie posie. I just knew I’d eventually find a use for those petticoats cut out from my wedding dress!… FacebookTwitter
Sister Mary Rose…
Rosie rocking the wimple look this morning…. FacebookTwitter
I Heart Daddy…
Today would have been Greg’s 34th birthday…Rosie celebrated it by wearing her favourite I Heart Dad socks…. FacebookTwitter
Biggles strikes again…
Looking pretty darn cute in her comedy headwear, can’t beat a silly hat… FacebookTwitter
Spring at Lauriston…
It was a beautiful spring day for a shoot and Lauriston Castle Gardens is just gorgeous at the moment! I had been asked along to photograph Sophie, Patrick and Kate for a family shoot – great kids and we had a lot of fun moving around the gardens taking shots. I last photographed this wonderful...
