What is Boudoir photography? Well it means different things to different women, basically it’s a photo shoot which is designed specifically around your wishes. For some women they want to have a make-over and have some glamorous style shots in a new outfit or lingerie, for other women its part of a healing road back to recovery after surgery, divorce or struggles with self esteem. All women of all ages (over 18) and sizes are welcome through our doors. Please arrange a visit ( Boudoirvous.co.uk) and come and have a chat over a cuppa to find out more.

I remember standing and staring in awe at the ‘The Lady of Shalott’ when I saw it years ago in a London gallery. It’s a picture I had on my wall when I gave birth to my daughter at home, it’s one of those pictures which has stayed with me through my life. I have always loved the softness of the colours the mystery and the femininity shown in paintings by John Waterhouse. Here are some recent portrait images I took at my studio which were definitely inspired by his beautiful art.
A devastating life changing event, a driver under the influence drove in to him and knocked him off his push bike and crushed his right leg which resulted in major surgery implanting a metal rod and everything in his life being put on hold. Everyone can understand and talk about the leg break, the steel rod and the healing process but the unseen is the psychological damage and torment of someone else taking away some independence and choice and changing your body and your life forever.

If you, like so many other people have chopped up an old photo from your hols or used an image taken on someones phone at a family do to use for your profile image on your social media then please stop and think what this says about you and your company. It’s great to come across as accessible and friendly but some might look at your image and see it as not bothering and possibly slightly unprofessional. I like relaxed and quirky shots for profile pics I’m not saying every company suits a formal look but if you are going to have a picture then choose wisely, get it taken professionally. We all like to see who we are dealing with and like it or not we do make judgements on what we see, make sure the judgements people make are the right ones about you.

Here are some images from a recent assignment with the delightful and amazingly talented Nicholas McCarthy, he needed some pictures quickly as Nargis magazine were doing a feature about him and wanted a shot for the front cover and also some images to sit alongside the article. We arranged a shoot at my studio one evening and took a series of images which the magazine later went on to use. Nic was born without a right hand and was the first left hand only pianist to graduate from the Royal College of Music in London in its 130 year history. Here are a few of my favourites from the shoot.
The image below is the one they used for the front cover of Nargis Magazine

My nanny and grandads wedding ( Ellen & Ron - My mum's parents )
Recently I have become so wrapped up with new projects, work and my latest addiction Pinterest that I have neglected my Blog. So instead of going back months and trying to catch up instead I am posting up some wonderful old pics of my grandparents which my dad scanned and emailed over to me.
