About Me

I am a Skipton wedding and family lifestyle photographer, on the doorstep of the stunning Yorkshire Dales and not too far from Leeds, in Yorkshire.

Skipton Photographer

My biggest passion is photography. I am a self confessed photo junkie and my camera has become an extension of me. I tend to see something interesting that may be dismissed as mundane. It just feels right to have my camera in hand. Photographing what's around me is what I do best.

Wedding photography

I love to document the journey of a wedding. It is thick with emotion and laughter and the day is full of amazing moments to look back on.  My interest in photography started with photojournalism and I tend to apply this style to my work. So if you want a true representation of your day and don’t like lots of posing in front of the camera, we are a great fit. I like to photograph discreetly and capture the story as it unfolds. So if you want time with friends and family instead of generic wedding photos, you’ve got it.  

Natural Family Photography

It isn't just wedding days where special moments occur.  I equally love to shoot family portraits - those precious moments spent with your loved ones.  As the outsider looking in, I can freeze that pinpoint in time and put a frame around it for you to treasure forever. If you like the idea of family photos but worried about the awkwardness of a photo shoot, you are not alone. I’m here to make sure you relax and enjoy the shoot as well as capturing beautiful family photography.

Capture your story!

A little about me... the girl behind the camera

I love sunsets, escaping into the Yorkshire dales, sun drenched beaches and watching the waves. Fantasy novels are my favourite,  and I have a constant like/hate relationship with exercise. I'm transfixed by the art of dance. I love animals with an extra soft spot for tigers...okay and dogs (standard) I believe hugs and laughter should be had everyday. I enjoy walking with my pup, who is actually an old boy and sadly can’t do the miles anymore, but he is bag pack size!

It’s more than pretty photos. It’s about making genuine connections

and making the person in front of the camera feel comfortable so they can enjoy themselves.
