Hi there and welcome to my website. It’s so great that you found me! I’ll not bore you with my life story, but I will tell you a little bit about me and my journey.

I just love photography. Whether it’s families, newborn babies, headshots, weddings or pets, photography is my jam. Put a camera in my hand and there’s no stopping me. Photographing people is one of the most interesting and rewarding parts of my job. I love capturing the emotion, the personalities and the candid details.

I recently won 4 awards at the NIPA inter camera club competition and had one of my images awarded a commendation in the Will McCrum Portrait Competition. In the summer of 2023, I was awarded an PAGB ribbon for my portrait image ‘Glide’ in the NIPA Exhibition.

My relaxed style of shooting will ensure you thoroughly enjoy your photography session and come away with fabulous images to treasure forever.

      I offer on location shoots in the County Down area, including Hillsborough, Lisburn, Downpatrick and Saintfield, or come to my cosy studio in Ballynahinch. If all this sounds good, then I think we might be a perfect fit!

I hope to see you in front of the camera very soon!

 HOW TO BOOK

  • To make an enquiry or book an appointment, click on the button below and fill in the short form.

    I will reply within 24 hours and we can have a natter about your date, shoot location (whether the Ballynahinch studio or out and about) and anything else that comes to mind.

    I’ll then get you booked in (booking fee will be required to secure appointment) and send you a wee information pack via email with everything you need to know about your upcoming photoshoot.

    Closer to the time of your shoot session, I will be in contact to finalise everything and answer any questions you may have. Then all you have to do is enjoy the experience!

  • When you are ready to book a date for your photoshoot, I ask for a non-refundable booking fee of £30. This is to secure your slot and make sure that date is yours.

    In the event of life getting in the way (as it tends to do!) and having to cancel your appointment, the booking fee can be transferred to your new date.

    More information on booking fees and cancellations can be found in your info pack when you make your first enquiry.

  • After your shoot, I upload all your images into my computer, select the absolute best images from your session and begin the editing process.

    Once they are ready to go, I pop them into an online gallery and send it to you via email, so no need to return to the Ballynahinch studio. You can view the gallery at your leisure and choose your favourites, download the ones you want and you can even buy extras, such as prints, frames and albums.

    Your gallery will be live for 6 months.

  • Nope! The price you see is the price you pay. Each package is clearly laid out so you can see what you are getting. It’s then totally up to you if you want to purchase further items.

    I have absolutely no minimum spend and you are not obligated to purchase anything else outside your package.
