THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME!

I’m a Somerset girl and have made home in the village I grew up in, although I’ve lived in many places around the world in the interim (on occasions wishing I could click my heels together and return home!). Family, friends and home are what it’s all about for me - my perfect day would include everyone I love enjoying food and drink together in a beautiful garden. Married for 25 years now I have two lovely adult(ish) daughters and a shaggy lurcher of whom I’m insanely fond.

YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE

Still, according to Mae West if you do it right once is enough! I always say I’ll try anything once and I try to make the most of any opportunity. Photography is not my first career, but rather the culmination of many different roles and life experiences that have come together happily behind the lens. There have been times when I’ve felt inadequate for having changed direction, but I love learning and I’ve experimented widely with many crafts, I am endlessly curious about other people and their creative pursuits and remain in awe of anyone who can remember how to crochet between sessions!

In 2022 I was accepted as a Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society which reassured me that I am indeed capable with a camera in my hands. You’ll get to know me better via my semi-regular 'Pixel Postcards’ and my blog, I enjoy writing but find social media frustrating these days preferring to make contact with people locally and by word of mouth - ‘though I’m very open to any invitations for photo shoots in exotic locations!
