Yes – natural, relaxed photographs are very much my style.

I’ll always guide you into flattering positions and make sure the lighting works beautifully, but that doesn’t mean your photos will feel stiff or overly posed. I usually start by getting everyone settled together and then let things unfold naturally, capturing the moments in between.

With children, I work in a gentle, playful way. Rather than asking them to sit still and smile, I’ll give them something to do and encourage interaction, which leads to expressions that feel genuine and full of personality.

You don’t need to worry about being “good in front of the camera” – I’ll take care of that part (and I’m not above a bit of silliness if that’s what it takes).
