Thank you so much to my fantastic creative team. It was an honour to create stories with you. I truly believe it’s important to create experiences and memories in adult life that reconnect us to the sense of magic we felt while discovering the world when we were the little ones ✨

Collaborative photoshoots are genuinely my favourite. It might sound strange to say that I love creating alongside other photographers, but the truth is that I really do, especially when there’s no ego involved, just love, curiosity, and a shared desire to help each other bring our visions to life 💗
I love seeing how differently we each interpreted the very same shoot. Every image becomes a reflection of our own experiences, choices, emotions, and creative eye, and I think that’s such a beautiful thing 🌱
Irene and I worked on the styling together, and Eve kindly did her own hair and makeup. It was a tiny (but mighty!) team, which is honestly my favourite way to work, and such a lovely creative memory to hold onto from my first time in Banff 🥰

The “Three Princesses” photo story was captured in the summer of 2023 👑 I was back in England and the girls and I wanted to make magic together again. I think the last time we all came together like this was for the Bridgerton set.
We had a rough idea of the concept, and everyone had their part to play.
🌞, our eco designer queen (who also modeled), created the dresses by repurposing Indian clothing
🌸 worked on the hair pieces from home and brought everything to Oxford for final assembly on the girls that day
🌱 made the crowns and sent over several beautiful headpieces, of which these three fit the looks perfectly.
🦋 (model) pulled the whole team together and really helped kickstart the project.
💫 joined in (model), and it was so lovely having her creative light as part of our little girl gang.
I proposed shooting at Minster Lovell Hall, a 15th century ruin filled with lore and history, a place that never fails to inspire me whenever I visit.
🌿 And, our lovely videographer, kindly joined us for the day to capture behind the scenes moments for us all
💖 Big love to for featuring this set on their spring cover and within the issue itself ✨
The colors in this set completely ran away with me. I wanted it to feel like the illustrations we loved in childhood storybooks had somehow come to life and, somewhere along the way, they truly did.
It really was a day filled with such beautiful energy and, as we played in the afternoon sun, I truly felt like I’d slipped back in time, stepping through a portal into the realms of childhood imaginings and play.
When was the last time you felt that childlike sense of wonder? 🌱

Summer in England is where I find myself thriving again. The sweet air, the vibrant blooms, the magic of the countryside, historic homes, and their enchanting gardens.
Here are a few pictures from a session I had with the lovely during her visit to Oxfordshire. She was such a joy to create with, and I have more to share soon, along with a behind the scenes video, so please keep a look out for that 🌿🌱
I’ll be back in the UK this summer from June to August. If you feel called to create something together in the English countryside, you’re so welcome to reach out at for rates and availability ✨
Anddd if you’re feeling called to a little adventure, I’d gently nudge you to take a look at a retreat I’m hosting in Germany with and 🌸✨
It’s a 5 day experience where you are the muse, joined by a small group of like-minded souls. We’ll be staying together, creating across three beautiful locations, and you’ll receive images from each setting 💫
All of the styling will be thoughtfully handled by, so everything is taken care of for you.
All you need to do is arrive, settle in, and allow yourself to enjoy the experience ✨ More info about that experience here -
And of course if you have any questions at all feel free to just drop me a DM ☺️

Last summer I had the pleasure of joining,, and for creative adventures in Azores 🌿 we spent the days exploring the island, experiencing its incredible natural wonders, connecting in girlhood, and immortalizing our creative energy through the lens.
I feel the most alive when in nature, embraced by its scents and soundscapes, combining that love with photography is truly my happy place 🥰
