Whoops – you’ve stumbled across an old page. But what the heck. As you’re here…
my name is claire
I am a mother, a wife and a storyteller – a Documentary Photographer.
I like to keep things simple. I enjoy honest conversation, a strong cup of coffee, hanging out the washing in the morning sun, baking scrummy cakes and hearing the sound of my kiddos laughing with Daddy.
I crave the warmth of the sun against my face, love watching the sunrise, exploring foreign shores and I am drawn to those who see beauty in unexpected places.
As your photographer, I want to share with you {the beauty} that I see blooming right in your EveryDay life.

My photography and films are inspired by my love for life and my family.
My favourite photographs are the kind that tell a story about the people in them. The kind of images that make the person looking at them FEEL something. All unscripted.
From your BigDays I want you to feel joy. From your EveryDays, I want you to feel warmth. From your WorkDays, I want you to feel proud.
So if the idea of posing makes you cringe and all you REALLY want is to capture images and films that have meaning, a true sense of yourself and your life, then I’m the lady for you.
If you would like me to capture your EveryDay, BigDay or WorkDay, please feel free to call, email or even just text me. We can have a chat, even meet for coffee, to discuss what shoot you have in mind, and heck . . . even make a new friend! Here’s my number – yeah – let’s hear each others voice the old skool way! 07810 888958.
MAYBE TAKE A TRIP OVER TO MY MAIN HOMEPAGE…..
