As a newborn baby specialist working in West London, I get to meet all kinds of families from all over the world. Amin’s family used to live in London but now live in Dubai. Amin came to see me when he was just two and half weeks old and he was just so adorable. He slept really well for the…

A surprize baby shower!
Did you know that the baby shower phenomenon started after World war II and evolved with the consumer boom of the 1950’s and 1960’s. Well there you go – that’s a new fact of the day for you 🙂 I’m often asked to photograph baby showers these days. They are a wonderful way to herald the arrival of a new…
Baby Thomas’s first photo shoot
As a specialist baby photographer working in and around London, I get to meet all kinds of babies at every age. Thomas came to visit me a couple of months ago after his Dad bought a shoot voucher as a Christmas present for his Mummy on Christmas Eve – what a good idea! Thomas’s shoot was a wall to wall…
The longest way, Noor’s newborn shoot in London
Meet Noor, isn’t she just beautiful? As a newborn specialist photographer working in and around London I get to meet families from all over the world. Noor’s Mummy and Daddy live in Nigeria but Noor was born here before she went back home, I think she’s my furthest travelled client despite being 2 weeks old 🙂 I’m looking forward to…
Ellen’s newborn shoot
Ellen first came to see me when she was exactly a week old, and even then she didn’t have a name as Mum and Dad were still deciding on the perfect one 🙂 She wasn’t too fussed about going to sleep on her first session so came back a week later and we had another go. This time she did…
Meet Tom
Tom came to visit me recently when he was four weeks old. He was very interested in what was going on and didn’t want to go to sleep at first but the magic of some white noise and the warm studio worked it’s magic and he did drift off for a nap for a while to allow me to get…
Rosie’s cake smash
Rosie was one recently and her parents wanted to mark the occasion with a pink cake smash! Rosie was certainly all smiles and giggles when she saw all the balloons and bunting and was delighted to find that the cake had big white chocolate buttons on it 🙂 She was very ready for a quick dip in the bath to…
Lily’s newborn shoot in Uxbridge
Oh Lily – you were just prefect for your session 🙂 I don’t think I saw her eyes at all, she was so fast asleep. I had the pleasure of photographing your big sister as a newborn not so long ago and you are the very spit of her. I am totally in love with your portraits, I hope you…
A gaggle of wonderful girls!
I love this lot. I really do, they are a whirlwind of fun, laughter, giggles, arguments and huge love – like all sisters are 🙂 It was a great pleasure to photograph them all again recently and we had a great time catching up on school, activities, fashion, parties and whether or not I was to be called ‘Big Pickle’…
Happy New Year!
So welcome to 2016! I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and New Year and now it’s back to reality! To blow away the New Year blues meet Odhran – he came to visit late last year for his shoot and was a little super star. He was very interested in what was going on to start with but…
Happy Christmas!
Wow! Where did 2015 go? I can’t believe is Christmas this week. I’m looking forward to spending time with my amazing family and celebrating another year of happy memories. It’s been a brilliant year for Red Poppy, I’m so lucky to be able to take pictures for a living and capture families and new additions and I’d like to thank…
Joseph is One!
Joseph celebrated his actual 1st birthday with me and we had such fun doing his cake smash 🙂 Happy birthday Joseph!
Jack’s newborn shoot
Jack came to see me a few weeks back for his first photo shoot which was a baby shower present to his parents from work colleagues – what a good idea that was! He already has a head fully of musical theatre songs as both parents love the theatre and Jack was happily soothed by a few songs from some…
Captured for his first photo shoot!
Meet Hunter 🙂 His Mum and Dad found me at Duck Pond Market and they’d only just found out that Hunter was on his way, so I was part of a big secret very early on! We had to wait for Hunter to arrive as he didn’t feel like coming out on time but I have to say he was…
Oh Billy Boy!
Billy Flynn – what a heart breaker you are going to be when you’re older! You did so well in your first photo shoot and promptly fell asleep when we needed you to 🙂 It wasn’t until I showed your Mum and Dad your portraits did you let me see you big brown eyes – I suspect there’s a cute…
