Hi, it's nice to meet you.

10 YEARS AGO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW MY DREAMS
Before landing a studio job, something completely unexpected happened - I fell in love with the art of wedding photography while planning my own tiny wedding. I instantly knew this was what I wanted to do and quit my 9-5 job and began paving my own path as a documenter of love.
I now specialise in capturing elopements, small weddings and portraits of mothers & artists in wild nature settings, using a mixture of still photography & film. Over the years I've captured stories all over the country and abroad (as far as Australia), and love what I do.
Image making and storytelling has always been my passion. I remember writing a lengthly essay for my English exam about my desire to become the next Sofia Coppola. As a terribly shy girl I didn't do great at school, but this got me my first A.
After travelling Europe in an old 70's camper van (with my now husband Chris), I went on to gain my degree in Film at university in Edinburgh and moved to London shortly after to try break into the industry.
A snapshot of my life
After a decade away I returned to live on the island I grew up on in the Outer Hebrides, situated just across from Skye. I call North Uist home and share my life with my husband Chris, our 2 year old son Iggy and 2 cats Peggy & Freya.
We live in an old croft house by the sea and enjoy amazing sunsets. Life here is slow paced and we relish in all its natural beauty with full moon lit walks, growing veg and wild swimming.
I'm constantly inspired by our rural life but my freespirited nature craves to roam and adventure. While the majority of my work takes place across the islands and highlands, I frequently travel across the U.K and internationally to work with my dream clients.
My spring to autumn's are spent on the road for weddings in my micro-camper, while in the winter we like to escape to hotter climates for hiking & desert camping.
