With sunset drawing closer, we bundled into cars and headed down to the beach—just five minutes from my Margate studio. Mama and baby had a quick outfit change, and honestly, the soft blue set she chose was divine. It was the perfect summer tone to complement the golden warmth of Botany Bay’s cliffs and sand. This is where thoughtful styling becomes so important. If you're booking a family or newborn session, don't let styling be an afterthought—it’s one of the things that elevates your photographs from good to timeless, cool, and full of personality.

What’s not to love? Ox-eye daisies and newborns, buttercups and baby toes, golden hour settling over a fairytale scene as you soak in those early days with your baby—whether they’re brand new or already growing fast. This hidden gem in Canterbury, Kent, is peaceful and almost impossibly magical, like a scene from a storybook. As a Kent Newborn and Family Photographer, it’s one of my favourite locations through spring, summer, and autumn. With its ever-changing wildflowers, long swishy grasses, cows grazing in the distance, and the most dreamy evening light, it’s a perfect backdrop for capturing natural but also elevated family heirloom photographs.

When I deliver your gallery, know that every close-up included was taken on purpose. It was seen. Felt. Chosen. And my hope is that years from now, it will mean even more than it does today.

As a maternity and family photographer serving Kent and London, I am constantly in awe of the quiet depth within these fleeting seasons of life. I don’t just want to document how your family looked. I want to capture how it felt to be theirs.

Every family session is a little different, and that’s exactly how it should be. Whether you’re a snuggly crew who love quiet moments, or your kids are full of wild energy and curiosity, I meet you exactly where you are.

We’ll wander, play, pause, and laugh. There’s no pressure to perform—just time to connect, unwind, and soak in the joy of being together in a beautiful space. And I’ll be there, capturing the warmth, the softness, the chaos, and the love.

come and have a peek inside my natural light earthy photography studio in Margate, Kent, for maternity, newborn, family and breastfeeding photoshoots.

It’s also taking a moment to connect with this baby you’re lovingly anticipating. The whirlwind of first time parenting whilst your family rapidly grows. For this Canterbury based family we chose Botany Bay, Margate, Kent as the ideal location to keep their sweet girl busy and engaged in nature whilst we documented their connection.

Pregnancy isn’t just about carrying life—it’s about transformation, vulnerability, and strength. However, between endless to-do lists and day-to-day busyness, this chapter often slips by undocumented. A maternity photoshoot serves as a pause button. It gives you the space to celebrate your journey, honor your growing family, and capture moments you’ll treasure forever.

Life has a way of moving too fast. One day, you’re adjusting to the rhythm of being a new parent, and before you know it, years have flown by. That’s exactly what happened to this lovely family of three. They never got around to taking their first family photos until now. Between sleepless nights and chasing their growing daughter, time slipped away. But they realized something important — they couldn’t afford to wait any longer.

If you’re reading this and still haven’t had your first family photoshoot, this is your sign. Don’t let time pass by without capturing the beautiful bond between you and your family. Especially if you're located in Herne Bay, Kent, or along the East Kent Coast, now is the perfect time to book your session and preserve these memories.
