Behind the Lens

“WHICH OF MY PHOTOGRAPHS IS MY FAVOURITE?
THE ONE I’M GOING TO TAKE TOMORROW.” – IMOGEN CUNNINGHAM

Photography is my passion. I fall in love with every new set of photos and I’ve never lost that excitement as each new image is revealed. I delight in capturing the essence of each situation which I aim to do with a natural, artistic style.

People have always inspired me, but as a shy child I learnt to observe and read situations instinctively, which is possibly why it feels so natural behind the camera. It’s the emotions evoked that truly make an image and being an emotional girl who wears her heart on her sleeve, I am always moved by those precious moments in life: a mother’s tender smile for her newborn or that stolen glance between nearly-weds .

My background and training is in art and design, achieving a BA (hons) in 2004. I’m also am a qualified art teacher but I love what I do too much to just teach it. I have worked abroad photographing wedding and lifestyle shoots, been published in national magazines and have received awards, but for me the greatest rewards still come from working with amazing and inspiring people every day. I love my job.

I currently live in a tumble-down cottage in the depths of South Norfolk with my fantastic husband, 2 mischievous children, Mitsy the cat, our dogs Rufus & Brodie, and soon to be added feathered friends: Hetty, Betty, Liddy & Esther! I adore my little eclectic family. They are my inspiration and motivation, and an endless source of photographs.
