Because life's is too short to say no to cake!

Wow, what a baby boom 2019 is turning into! Here's afew babies that have melted my heart this year so far 😍 I am now booking into November and I am nearly fully booked for June, July and August. I will have very limited availability in September and October owing to a big holiday so if your considering newborn portraits please get in touch and book before your baby arrives ❤️💙

Also celebrating their first birthday this weekend with a smash and splash session was Edgar who brought his big sister in on the action!! Thanks for another amazing cake Peedie Kirkwall Cakes 🧁

Happy 1st Birthday to Kruz who celebrated his first birthday in style with a smash and splash session!

I had a fantastic time with the gorgeous, giggly Abigail last month. She had stunning dresses, shoes and accessories any girl would die for and it made for one of my favourite shoots to date! 😍 I reckon we have a little model in the making, what do you think...

Earlier this year I had the pleasure of capturing the beautiful and very talented Tara. I loved our unique shoot at Highland Park Distillery and think her portfolio portraits take a little bit of Orkney with her on her dance career!

After an extremely busy 6months I’m taking some much needed time off and jetting off on my hols! I will be trying my hardest not to reply to any messages after today 🙈 but please still get in touch particularly if your booked in for a newborn session and I’ll get back to you when I get home 🍹☀️ x

🐰🥕Anyone else see the Easter Bunnies today 🥕🐰...bet they weren't as cute as the gorgeous Thea and Neve who stopped past me today!!😍

Looking for a Mother’s Day Treat? Why not spoil your Mum/Wife/Partner on Mother’s Day with a special ‘Mum & Me’ portrait session and make some memories to treasure forever 💖 PM to book your slot x

❤️🌹Happy Valentines Day🌹❤️ I hope everyone has been spoiled with love and flowers today! and if you haven't, then Little Neve is sure to melt your heart xox

Last year I had the pleasure of working alongside the very talented Stef from Move Orkney and some of her fabulous ballet dancers whilst they visited the moon! 🌚 Its amazing what you can achieve when two artists come together ❤️
