From fleeting moments to lasting memories

PORTFOLIO

“No two family photoshoots are ever the same. Each session is a reflection of your family’s personality, connections, and love. Whether it’s playful laughter, quiet cuddles, or spontaneous moments, I strive to capture the essence of who you are. My goal is to create images that feel natural and timeless—photographs that will bring you back to this moment, years from now.”

"I absolutely LOVE the photos Em has taken of our wee family, they are incredible! She really put us all at ease and made it fun and natural, it didn't feel like a photoshoot! Very talented and professional, would 100% recommend "

“We didn’t have the budget for an expensive newborn photoshoot and that didn’t really feel like our style anyway. Emily created a casual, fun environment which was perfect for us (normally a bit awkward in front of a camera) and the results were truly epic - we will treasure the photos she took forever!”

“Emily was so great through our family photography session. She was so relaxed and fun. She had a chill vibe about her-not putting any pressure on how things should be. She just allows us to be ‘us’ and captures the essence of who ‘we’ are in such a beautiful way. If your looking for someone who takes great pictures from unique angles, and your not someone who likes to be in front of a camera, then Emily is your gal; she will make the session so enjoyable and comfortable.”

“I recently had a photography session with Emily and I can't express how stoked I am with the results! She made us feel incredibly comfortable, allowing us to relax and be ourselves. Her talent shines through in every stunning shot, especially with her non-posed style that captures genuine emotions beautifully. It felt like we were just enjoying our time together, and the photos turned out to be authentic treasures I'll cherish forever. Thank you, Em for your amazing work! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer!”

“Emily made me feel so comfortable during the shoot, which can sometimes feel awkward, especially when you're the one in front of the camera. She was incredibly engaging with my daughter, making the whole experience enjoyable for both of us. I truly appreciate her attention to detail and the ease with which she works. Her approach is warm and professional, and it really shines through in the photos.”

"The lighting was perfect, and the whole vibe felt natural for me. As someone who wasn’t quite keen on the traditional photos, I appreciated the way Emily kept it simple but still capturing my bump. It’s cool to see a maternity shoot that feels authentic and not too forced or overdone. A great balance of nature, simplicity, and capturing the real essence of that moment."
