A little bit about me

I live in Hertfordshire with my Husband and two Daughters and began documenting their childhood with my camera, capturing all the little moments that we’ll look back on and treasure in years to come.

Fast forward a few years and a couple of camera upgrades, I took the plunge in 2023 and decided to take portraits for other people too after being encouraged by my friends and family.

Family portrait photography is at the heart of what I do. The thing that I really love to capture above all else is children simply being children. Those authentic candid shots, the laughter, the joy, the wide eyed stares, those tender hugs and smooshy faced kisses. I’m here for all of it!

Capturing a moment in time to treasure for the future is so important- let’s face it, they grow so quickly! So if you’d like to book a shoot- or find out more then please get in touch.

    We are delighted with the photographs that Viv took of our family! The photo shoot in our local woods was a really fun experience. Viv struck the perfect balance between letting us relax and be ourselves and giving us a little bit of direction here and there to help make the most of the beautiful surroundings and get some lovely, natural shots of our family. We love the way she has captured the boys' energy and our family dynamic, and how we all love being outdoors in nature. Thank you, Viv!

    We booked Viv for a cold and muddy day in January to capture some pictures of our young family and dog. Viv was excellent at communicating with us right from the very start. She asked lots of questions around what we wanted to achieve from the shoot and also gave us loads of tips and ideas in terms of what to expect and to pack a few snacks (which were much needed).

    Upon arrival, Viv immediately put us at ease - she warmed the kids up (who can be very shy) and it felt like we were just out on a lovely winter’s day walk.

    Viv was very patient and never put pressure on us to do act or pose in a certain or awkward way. She went for quality over quantity so we weren’t posing for hours on end with unnatural smiles and we discovered parts of the local wood we hadn’t seen before!

    The outcome from the shoot was incredible, we are truly delighted and can’t wait to book Viv again for another shoot in spring/summer.

    I can’t recommend Viv highly enough if you want honest, raw, beautiful family pictures and to have lots of fun at the same time!

    Thank you Viv!
