Today I did something radical.

I ordered a @canonuk camera.

As I’ve started to work with more brands helping them create content, my workhorse DSLR (which weighs almost 2 kilos) feels way too heavy to carry around. Definitely not suitable for grabbing a quick video at a moments notice.

So I caved and bought something portable but still powerful. To use as well as, not instead of my portrait camera.

So if you suddenly see a lot more english countryside cottage stuff here, sorry not sorry. It’s too beautiful not to share.

And it feels really exciting putting a tick next to ‘monetise content in 2025’ on my vision board.

Snippets of an early Autumn Sunday at the cottage 🍂

Picking the last of the vegetables from the garden and refilling the log store before the rain came. Then hunkering down in front of a massive fire for the night.

Today marks nine years since handing my notice in at work.

Sunday lunch in Battersea and one too many red wines ended with ‘a quick look’ in @trailfindersofficial on the way home and subsequently booking a trip across the world.

Bought a camera to take along and just about mastered automatic mode.

Then photography changed my entire life.

Now it’s 2025 and I’m in the spa at 9.30am on a Friday morning drinking coffee and feeling nostalgic. And proud to be such a flexible boss 🙂‍↔️

I’m seeing them again at their autumn mini session in October.

Most families who have booked so far came last year which is a beautiful compliment.

If you haven’t captured your family this year there are spots available to book.

Just DM ‘MINIS’ 🍂

A new day.

Started with a walk in the rain which was very needed. Ultimate peace for me is getting totally drenched in the forest and having no plans for the rest of the day.

Came home and reorganised the bathroom cupboard. Noticing as I get older that if I am at odds with myself, I pick a drawer or a cupboard and reorganise it and it’s like an actual release… curious.

Made a small fire which is completely unnecessary as it’s 17 degrees but the crackling wood sounds lovely and I’m ready to hibernate.

If you’ve had a shoot with me you will have received twelve hours of my time. At least.

Emails, consultations, clothing, styling, whatsapps, traveling, shooting, editing, viewing, ordering, rescheduling - often without much notice or a request for a replacement deposit which wouldn’t come close to covering the days work lost. Rescheduling.

Chasing payments shouldn’t be a thing but that takes up time on occasion too.

Most of you pay before the viewing call ends. Or straight after. Some ask for a day or two for international banking. Some don’t need to see before paying me because we’ve built up that trust together over the years.

But over the last few months I’ve been faced with some clients who take a really long time, after viewing and choosing to purchase their entire gallery, to actually pay me for the work I’ve done and this isn’t something that has ever happened before.

The stress and worry this causes needs to be addressed.

Because perhaps people just aren’t thinking…

I am one person running a business completely by myself. Paying rent, utility companies, HMRC, car insurance, employment insurance, medical bills, a landlord, software subscriptions to deliver a seamless service to you. None of these companies I could ghost for days or weeks at a time. Four months in the case of one premier league footballer who is making ‘considerably’ more money than me.

I’m not sneaky about pricing. They are there for all to see on the website in black and white.

We are all trying to get by in what is a really tough time. Especially for small business owners.

If you don’t pay me, I don’t get paid and I can’t begin to describe the inner turmoil that happens when you have worked really hard but not received the money you are owed and so are unable to then pay your own way.

And the domino effect that can cause so easily.

Not ok.

September and May are my favourite months of the year for weather and colours and mornings. But forced with choosing, Im not sure I could. When May comes around, it’s definitely May. The flowers are all awake and you can smell the haze of summer in the air. But now that September is here and there are beautiful droplets of dew across the village early in the morning… 🥹

I’m probably spending too much time on this but I have to get to the bottom of it.

I’m probably spending too much time on this but I have to get to the bottom of it.

Now that orders are being made through the website for printed products from old galleries, I get to look back.

Eight years of families and babies and all of their photographs mean that I’m usually only ever moving forwards. Working through what happened today to make room tomorrow. Rarely did I take time to look back at the previous years.

It’s lovely being reminded of the thousanda of memories I’ve made with all of those different people since I started this. I love it ♥️

Four times in the last three years this family have driven from London to have the latest chapter in their love story documented.

We’ve seen sunset on the farm, morning at the cottage, evening on the beach. This year we searched for ladybirds and picked apples from the tree in the garden. Next time I’ve told them to bring pjs and stay over because at this point we are old friends.

Thank you for always trusting me, Jennie 🫶🏼

Lots of you asked about this and now I actually get the viral hype!

Founded on Ayurvedic principles so I was keen to try and hormone safe which is hugely important.

I took the quiz and of the three ranges, was recommended the Kapha system as I generally only wash my hair once a week so the oil balancing offering really suits.

Truly my hair has never felt so clean after a wash and the gorgeous scent of all the natural oils and turmeric lingers way longer than any other high end shampoo I’ve used. The growth serum doesn’t sit on my hair and make it greasy which is great because I was skeptical about that.

Two weeks in and I’m happy with the results so will update with all of my healthy new hair growth soon.

MELANIE10 is the @champohaircare discount code for those of you who want to try. And remember to do the quiz to get the best product for your specific hair care needs. I’m going to try the hydration system next as mixing and matching seems to work really well too.

Our third get together.

The first was just the two of them. And a baby bump. It was slow and calm as we floated from one gorgeous window to the next.

Skip forward a couple of years and there are now four of them!

Toddler and newborn. Promoted parents. Emotions in every shape and size. Big nappies and small nappies. Big tears and tiny tears. Multi tasking. Running from the bench to the bike and then to the rose bush.

Slow and calm to wild and wonderful in a heartbeat.

In May they drove across to the cottage and we wandered out at sunset to capture some of the last moments before they went from three to four.

This time I drove across to them and we wandered out to the roses and captured some of their first moments as a family of four.

0808 is a really powerful day to set intentions for the year ahead. To visualise how we want to feel this time next year and write it down.

On this day last year I wrote a letter to the universe from me, today. A year in the future. Bringing what was a really desperate hope for the next year, onto a tangible piece of paper. Then I put it in the back of a photo frame and forgot all about it.

This morning waking up full of energy, walking in the forest, watering the plants, having happy thoughts - I realised the date and remembered the letter. So I made coffee and sat on the grass to read it.

It was intense, desperate gratitude for all of the miracles of the year passed. Manifesting pretty much solely the return of my health. I remember feeling so unwell as I wrote it and by that point wondered if I would ever have full and consistent energy back. That was the only thing I wanted. When your brain and body stop working properly, you realise that is all that really matters.

Today I sat in bright colour and full health, surrounded by nature and actually feeling and experiencing in real time, the immense gratitude that I’d manifested so hard in the letter. It feels like a bit of a dream.

So I wrote an essay of thanks and then wrote another letter for next year. Hoping to always feel thankful and able to have my face to the sun.

These are my lovely friends with the one precious thing that they manifested 🌙

I’ve thought about posting most days.

Then I open my feed and the first thing I see hits me like an asteroid and I get lost in rage.

It feels like an unimaginable juxtaposition posting happy moments of childhood when children are being purposely starved as we scroll.

But I am here. Always creating art with wonderful people.

And grieving the loss of humanity.

Last night under a massive moon with clients who I have seen four times over the last two years. They make this time and effort and investment into documenting their journey, every year. With me.

After they left, I thought about how special that is. To be in somebody’s life helping to tell their story.

And to be able to do so in such beautiful surroundings, connecting with great people and nature at all times.

I was chatting to a lady at yoga this morning who was just coming back after having her third and final baby.

We both said what we do for a living and she looked me square in the face and said:

“My biggest regret is not photographing any of my three pregnancies. I was so lost in how my body changed, I didn’t see the value of it at all at the time. And you just think that memory is enough. But I know already, three months on, that it isn’t. I wish I’d known you then”.

This morning when I turned on my phone, the first thing I read was the below message from this wonderful mama:

I sent to my family and this is from my Dad, I thought I’d share with you xx

“Hi Poppet. I’m not sure I have the words to explain my reaction to ‘and then there were five’. I woke this morning next to a very very soggy handkerchief. Soggy for all the right reasons. What a wonderful special thing that captured you all perfectly. To say I loved it is a huge understatement. Hope you all have a nice day today 💕xxxx”

This job provides all of the best vibes I could ever ask for.

I sat in the sun and ate breakfast this morning. A few extra large bumble bees buzzed past and a robin sat in the apple tree announcing himself to anyone who would listen.

Spring is officially here.

This song was playing as I was just looking at these images and they just make me feel so in love with my job. They are the epitome of elated newborn parents 🙂‍↔️

Those button at the back rompers though… take a literal village.

We stood here cradling her first baby. Before that her pregnant belly. Talked about how fortunate it was that we’d managed to find each other in time to document the pregnancy. Just days later, she was born.

Almost a year to the day and sooner than anybody expected - we’re back!

Now I simply wait for the call for further cuddles ✨

Dubai dreams very much coming true over here ✨

I’m so grateful for how many of you there are, invested in documenting your families through timeless photography.

I’m currently working on a list of prettiest spots. Dancing in the desert and evenings at the beach recommendations are all very welcome. Please feel free to send them across to my DMs.

If you’re keen to book a shoot for yourself to capture your pregnancy, a new baby, your growing family or perhaps just the two of you - send me a message and I’ll get back to you asap.

I’m travelling to Dubai in Spring to photograph people and how much they love each other.

New babies as they arrive home to the world. Families I’ve known for a long time as they grow into Dubai. Couples in love. And whoever else finds me in the process.

If that’s you, you can DM me for details or send me an email using the link above ✨

I’m just sat in my favourite coffee shop drinking spiced apple tea and poring over some hidden moments from late summer last year.

A world away from the recent tropical beaches of Zanzibar but making me so excited to explore and adventure in nature this year and see what seasonal beauties come my way ✨
