this is more than just photos.

this is the middle of the story, where everything happens…

You don't need a big occasion for me to turn up.
I photograph the slow afternoons, the last weeks of a growing belly, and the way your toddler still fits under your chin… these are the parts of your life you'll want to come back to.

The seasons I love photographing most, from bumps to babies, to the ones who are all grown and still won't sit still for a photo. I take photos in your home, at a location that’s special to you, and in my own space -

hey darling,

A woman with long wavy brown hair and light skin, sitting in front of beige curtains, wearing a cream-colored ribbed sweater and dark pants, resting her chin on her hand and looking at the camera.

I’m Amy. I’m a mother, a friend, a moment capturer, a memory preserver… your photographer. I have always been the designated photo taker; the one who cared about capturing the moment; the young gal at the pub with a camera swinging from her arm.

Documenting people - whether families, lovers, small businesses, it’s my whole heart. I want to document the real connection you have with your loved ones, and I’m a massive sucker for creating images that feel like a big basket of nostalgic feelings.

  • " We’ve had Amy photograph our family three times now, and we absolutely love her photography style. She has an incredible ability to capture both the love and the beautiful chaos of family life in her images. Amy always makes us feel comfortable in front of the camera and is amazing at connecting with and settling our wild kids! "

    - Rach

  • " Having Amy in our home feels more like having a friend come to visit than a photographer. She always makes our whole family feel completely at ease. During our most recent session she had my toddler completely smitten, and our newborn was so calm and comfortable with her too. Her work is stunning, and we couldn’t be happier with the photos!! "

    Jaclyn

  • " Amy you are incredible and what you do! Amy is incredible! She is thoughtful with our kids and is always able to engage them to get the best images. We have used her for newborn photos, mini sessions, and even extended family shots. Am goes above and beyond to work with you to get amazing shots, and is definitely a perfectionist (in the best possible way!) when it comes to editing. She will always be the one I contact for any photos in the future "
