Hi, I’m Emma. Thanks so much for visiting my cosy little spot of the internet.

Who am I? I'm a Storyteller, a Memory Maker...your story is unique to you. My style of photography will capture your personalities, not just what you look like.

Most importantly, I want you to feel happy in your own skin while doing it. I'm passionate about creating beautiful images that you will want to hang on your walls. To give you memories that you can relive everyday and be proud of your amazing family bond.


If you’re looking for professional family or newborn photographers who will capture the uniqueness of your family and the connection you have, in the beautiful setting that is the Derbyshire countryside, then you’ve come to the right place. My portrait sessions are fun, relaxed, and natural. 

As a fellow Derby Mummy of a four-year old and seven-month old, I really know how to get the best out of your little ones, encourage them to have fun, and be themselves. I want to provide you with photographs that capture precious moments and create beautiful images that you will have no choice but to smile at every time you see them.
