While the days are still short, the skies are dark and the grass is wet, I just had to revisit this mummy and me photography session from last October in the fields of Downswood, Maidstone, Kent.

First-time parents Maja and Nathan booked a very impromptu, and last-minute, maternity session with me ahead of their little one’s arrival in early November.

“A cake smash is where a one-year-old gets very messy with a cake and a professional photographer captures the moment.” So with my pop up studio and a large roll of white paper to protect the floors, I was ready for all the cake this little one could throw at me!

I met Holly and her adorable family one weekend evening, just as the daytime visitors were packing up and heading for the car park. And I couldn’t be more thrilled with just how beautifully the photos came out!

We’ve all had to find ways of adapting to this year, in one way or another. Hina and Nikhil should have been celebrating their wedding nuptials in sunny Barcelona! But, like many couples due to be married this year, COVID-19 had other plans in store.

Earlier this year I set out capturing local family Doorstep Portraits and after an incredible response, we managed to raise an amazing £328.00 for the St Albans and District Foodbank!
