FAQ

WHAT TYPES OF PHOTOGRAPHY SERVICES DO YOU OFFER?

I offer a range of photography services, including Newborn/Baby and Portrait Photography and Lifestyle Sessions. I specialise in capturing meaningful moments and creating stunning visual stories.

ARE YOU THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR ME?

My mission is to create whimsical, timeless portraits that will touch your soul. Do I always capture my clients smiling at the camera? No, although I love capturing genuine smiles, I strive to capture the true essence of the people and their story, so I will generally not ask you to look and smile, but rather capture the moment that is unfolding. The eyes are the gateway to a persons' soul and speak louder than smiles and words.

HOW DO I BOOK A PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION WITH YOU?

Booking a photography session is easy. Simply reach out to me through my website, email, or phone, and let me know the type of session you're interested in. I'll guide you through the process, discuss your requirements, and find a convenient date and time for your session.

CAN WE CHOOSE THE LOCATION FOR OUR PHOTO SHOOT?

Absolutely! My Baby and Newborn sessions are usually in-home sessions, but I am happy to discuss other options if you wish for something different. I believe that the location plays a significant role in capturing unique and personalized photographs. Whether it's at your home, a scenic outdoor location, or a venue of your choice, I'm open to capturing your portraits in a place that holds meaning to you.

HOW DO YOU PLAN OUR PHOTOSHOOT?

We will plan your Photoshoot together! We will talk about what you are imagining from your session, plan where to go, and what to wear. We'll create memories and have fun!
You decide if you would like a more traditional portrait, or more relaxed, lifestyle type images, or a mixture of both. My emphasis is on true connection and joy with your loved ones, and give you gentle guidance along the way to get the most out of your session.

HOW LONG DOES A TYPICAL PHOTO SESSION LAST?

The duration of a photo session varies depending on the type and scope of the project. Portrait sessions typically range from 1 to 2 hours. We strive to provide ample time to ensure you feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the session.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE WEATHER IS UNFAVOURABLE ON THE DAY OF AN OUTDOOR SHOOT?

If the weather doesn't cooperate on the day of an outdoor shoot, we can discuss alternatives such as rescheduling the session or finding an indoor location. Unless it's very wet or other extreme weather we usually go ahead with the photoshoot, clouds and wind can add beautiful depth and atmosphere! We want to ensure the best possible outcome for your photos, and we're flexible in adapting to unforeseen circumstances.

WHAT TYPE OF NEWBORN/BABY SESSIONS DO YOU OFFER?

Capturing a baby in its' first days and weeks of life is surely one of the most precious things! As a Mummy to two beautiful girls, I know only too well how quickly those precious moments pass. Let's capture some of those incredible moments and your babies' tiny details, so you can treasure them forever!
In my previous career I worked as a Neonatal Intensive Care Nurse, so you can rest assured that your baby is in very safe hands.
Our newborn sessions take place either in your own home , so you and baby can feel relaxed in your own environment, or if you prefer you can come to my home studio, where you can relax while I take precious photos of your baby.
Our newborn and baby sessions are a combination of Lifestyle based and gently posed images, both for baby, and with parents and siblings, if you would love to be included.
Are you looking for very posed images in beautiful baskets and props? Then I am not for you, I take a more organic and baby led approach to document your babies' early days. You are welcome to book a session no matter your babies' age.
I also offer outdoor baby session, please contact me, and we can discuss your options.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE THE FINAL EDITED PHOTOS?

We understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos. Our editing process typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. We prioritise quality and attention to detail to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations.

WHERE ARE YOU BASED AND DO YOU TRAVEL?

We are based east of Edinburgh in the beautiful conservation Village of East Linton, and yes, I am happy to meet you at your favourite park or beach, or visit you at home. If you're not sure of a location for your Photoshoot, we are happy to talk you through options, so you can get the most out of your session. We photograph people in and around Edinburgh, the Lothians and Fife.
If you live further away, please contact us to discuss options.

I'd love to know what I'm getting for this price!?

I’m a firm believer in quality over quantity.
Photography is not only about pressing a shutter—it’s about years of training, honed technical skills, creative vision, and the ability to capture moments in a way that tells a story beautifully and authentically. An experienced photographer brings a deep understanding of lighting, composition, and posing, as well as the ability to adapt to any environment or unexpected challenges. Professional photography involves more than just the time spent shooting, it’s careful planning, professional-grade equipment, meticulous post-production editing and customer service. I aim to give my customers not just a Photoshoot, but an experience making lots of happy memories!
