International Women's Day 2018
I'm thrilled to share that I've been invited to speak at this event, hosted on March 8th by 'Lives Not Knives' empowering young women. I'll be one of 4 speakers on the night!!
Come along and book your ticket here
2018, marks 100 years since women in the UK won the right to vote, a victory that took 86 years from the start of the campaign and although an amazing accomplishment for all women, there was still discrimination against the type of women who could vote. 2018’s International Women’s Day theme is #Pressforprogress, which couldn’t be more fitting, in today’s society where inequality & discrimination towards women is still taking place, worldwide.
It will be held between 5:30 and 7:30 on Thursday 8th March at the LNK unit in Centrale Shopping Centre in Croydon Town Centre and will include guest speakers, entertainment, sparkling wine & cakes and the chance to network with and meet other inspirational women.
Lives Not Knives would like to invite you to join us, at an evening, celebrating women and their many achievements. Tickets to the event can be obtained from EventBrite or names emailed directly to karen@livesnotknives.org.
February - Month of LOVE
#Instagramtakeover
I'm celebrating February and the month of love over on my Instagram page!!
I see so many forms of love every time I pick up my camera that I wanted to share this throughout February + each day I'm posting a new image + adding love to my 'instagram story'. From weddings across the spectrum to friendship - it's all pretty magical!
November was a busy baby month x
It was such a joy to meet so many new babies during November and my birthday month!!
Baby Grace, gently holds her Dad's finger whilst gazing towards the camera and figuring out that 'clicking' noise came from me!!
Yesterday.....music FriYAY....
snapping (w/myphone) 'La Tour' taking a quick 'selfie' between our shoot
Oh My goodness!!! Yesterday was so much fun + SO great to work with such a talented group of singers...especially when they busted out the tunes during our photo shoot!
On location at The House of St Barnabas proved a super setting and backdrop and I cannot wait to share the images!!
Super Cute Family Session
Autumn light, the great outdoors.....
This time of year is one of my favourites for stunning light and photographing Beth's gorgeous family on Clapham Common was so much fun!!
A Perfect Sunday
Ultra Excited to share......
We've been published!!!
SUPER EXCITED to share this amazing wonderful news!!!
Mark hired me through flytographer to capture his proposal to Molly on their weekend away in London in May.
Post proposal we captured some fun engagement pictures along the south bank and on Waterloo bridge enabling us to include some of our amazing London skyline
I hadn’t been back to London in 10 years, and he knew it was my favorite city in the world. He surprised me two weeks before for my 30th birthday with a trip back over Memorial Day Weekend. We took a redeye over so after exploring a bit, he took a 3 hour nap, completely eliminating any possible ideas from my mind. On a whim he decided that since it was so sunny (which as we all know can be rare for London), that we should go down to the South Bank for drinks before dinner.
Of course, what I thought was last minute, was all part of his master plan. He had been working with photographer to get me to the perfect spot, so Jackie our photographer could document the entire thing. After a failed attempt at a selfie with the sun behind us, a nice women asked if we wanted her to take our picture to capture the lighting.
Turns out the entire thing was a setup and safe to say the rest was magic!

The Light in London tonight was pretty special x
London's South Bank from Waterloo Bridge
London in the evening light always looks beautiful
As I walked from Covent Garden to Waterloo this evening the air was warm and I kept seeing beautiful snippets of light everywhere as if I was in a Philip Lorca Di Corcia picture x
