ABOUT ME
I’M GRATEFUL YOU ARE HERE
So this is the boring section about me… I am really not important…it is all about you and your pictures, but if you really want to know…
I am Scandinavian, but first came to England in 2000. I live in a beautiful country village with my (English) husband, and our two gorgeous boys and our cat Cookie.
I have a MSc in e-Commerce Technology and Communications and spent 6 years in web and marketing. After having the boys photography took over. I guess my marketing background is why branding is a guilty pleasure, and why I do enjoy photographing for family and baby brands.
I just love photographing people! I particularly enjoy photographing mums with their children, simply because I don’t think we feature nearly enough in pictures and video. We give up a lot to become mums, yet in the future when people look back at our family images, it’s like we weren’t there. I firmly feel it is important for our mental wellbeing to see our selves, with our children, being good enough, we spend so much energy on feeling inadequate, and it’s my mission to get mums in the picture – I simply know they will thank me down the line.
I am qualified to Associate Level with the master Photography Association. I was awarded both child and overall photographer of the year, East Midlands in 2020 and children’s photographer in the Midlands 2021 & 2022. The awards aren’t important as such, but they are important because they reassure me, that the work I create for customers is of a high standard! I am ALWAYS learning.
I love chocolate, cake, food and holidays. I read a lot, I like interior design and we are an outdoors kind of family. We all like running, actually the boys are all into their triathlons, so we go to a couple of tri events every year.
Now, please do tell me about your photography ideas?!
I BELIEVE IN
Capturing life
Everyday is what fills our life, yet we mainly focus on capturing the hallmark days like birthdays and holidays. Imagine finding a box of pictures of everyday life when you were little, or from when your parents were little. Seing the house, the bedrooms, the furniture, clothes and toys, the food… and of course the people. Histroy is told and preserved in everyday pictures.
