I love stories - reading them, writing them and telling them through images. Through both my professional and personal photography & writing work, I focus on creating stories themed around living a slow, simple, seasonal and sustainable life.

I specialise in travel, accommodation and nature photography, utilising natural light to create a soft, dreamy and moody aesthetic. I also shoot interiors, lifestyle product imagery and portraits for creative individuals such as musicians, florists and craftspeople.

My writing focuses on slow travel and simple living for clients such as Small Luxury Hotels of the World and Hotel Weekend. I was also the ghost-writer of a travel & interiors coffee table book.

Alongside my professional work, I publish personal written and visual content on my own journal, newsletter and Instagram, portraying a slow and simple life at home in the countryside and on my travels.

I’m a photographer and writer specialising in slow travel, living in the English countryside.

Photography

I’m at my happiest when my camera is in my hand and I’m capturing the little details of the world around me. My passions in life are exploring the world at a slower pace, immersing myself in nature, and connecting with people - and these are the subjects that I love to capture with my camera. My photographs embrace my love of storytelling, creating a unique body of work that utilises natural light with a soft, dreamy and moody aesthetic. Previous clients include Glebe House, Fforest, Studio Alexandra, Visit Wales, Whinyard Rocks, Berwyn Woodwork and Magic Organic Apothecary. I’m available to shoot destinations, hotels & accommodations, nature & gardens, portraits, and lifestyle product imagery.

Writing

I love words. Writing them, reading them and obsessing over them. I’ve been writing since I was a little girl; those scribbled thoughts and short stories have evolved into writing articles for print and online publications focused around my passions of slow travel and simple living. I’ve wrote blog posts, articles and was even the ghost-writer of a coffee table book for travel, lifestyle and interiors clients including Hotel Weekend, Small Luxury Hotels, Stylist, Loupe, Neptune, Elliot Organics and Lodestars Anthology. I’m available to write editorial articles for online publications and magazines, to give your brand & website a pop of personality, to write blog posts for your brand, or for ghost-writing projects.
